That's terrific by Inglis on dayboo. Good luck to him.

100K changed you for the worse.

Josh Inglis is the first Aussie debutant to score a test hundred since Adam Voges in 2015! Well done

It was Australia that started the tradition with Charles Bannerman getting a hundred on debut in 1877 , in fact that hundred has a world record still standing to this day ..Highest percentage of runs of a batting total by a batter.

DDS bowled in his previous two tests, and he's taken ten wickets across his last two FC matches only a couple of weeks ago. What's stopping him from bowling here?

Had a side strain which meant he was doubtful for this test – likely only playing as a batter.

was curious as to this because this many overs and only using four bowlers is a crime against cricket even if they’re low effort bowlers
the comms did say something about jaya yesterday lacking a bit of energy thru his run up and delivery and i happen to agree tbhwy

I turned 14 a few weeks before 06/07 Ashes.

If my family had moved me to Aus there's not a chance in hell I'd ever turned out for Australia!!!

That’s due to a lack of talent rather than your choice

Will Inglis replace Carey long term? Not sure I see the point playing both when Inglis keeps.

Maybe DDS didn't want to expose his suspect action to a high profile cricket game and risk getting reported and banned

 

[Prince EWS]

I reckon the only bloke int eh Aus set up unhappy with Inglis doing htis will be Carey, though Inglis' keeping is bog ordinary.

Cummins probably isn't happy given Inglis was involved with my political party.

His action is fine imo.

Probably just didn't want to bowl because it's a road. Philanderitis.

 

[MasterBlaster24]

Only five Australian men have made a century on Test debut during Josh Inglis' lifetime:Michael Clarke, Marcus North, Shaun Marsh, Adam Voges.......and
Josh Inglis.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Oof that's a pretty brutal looking scorecard.

Has the captain considered giving Prabath a twirl?
