Bloody oath.
I'm not a Maxwell fanboi, but I do feel he was under utilised over the last decade.

Green will certainly add another dimension.
I'm hoping Head can have another good summer as well. Hopefully benefit from not having his place questioned on a daily basis
Has McCullum and Stokes fixed England's test team basically over night? They went from not giving a Yelp against us to beating New Zealand and tie with India.

A mix of a couple of things for me. Some players playing well and some things going their way.
But credit to them, they've taken each test on despite being in a vulnerable position to be able to grab a win (except for the 2nd test with both teams scoring 500 plus).
Enjoyable to watch, will soon find out if they can sustain it with expectations.

In recent years there's been a reduction, of paper journalists in Australia.
Are we seeing more articles pushing for Victorian players more?
Feels like NSW media dominated before but now we get articles pushing Maxwell etc.

Warner and Khwaja can't last for ever. How gets the most press will tell you where the pendulum is.
I reckon we can test that theory over the next 18 months.

Head needs to learn how to sweep

He's starting to remind me of Warner in that he can make plenty of runs at home, but can barely fire a shot with the bat as soon as he steps onto a plane.

He has never been the best player of spin, would be interesting to see how he goes against Sth Africa, West Indies and England (now that he has got himself in the team). I have always been critical of us not picking horses for courses though, pick your best players of spin on spin pitches.
In saying that though, the way he bowled in that second innings...maybe we are picking him as a bowler

Strong position with 300+ on the board at stumps thanks to the 2x tons from the fidget brothers.
Can't see Sri Lanka beating us from here, particularly batting last.
BTW, why are they playing consecutive tests at Galle?

Happy with another Smith ton. Was getting worried we weren't going to see it again.

eh, they don't have the fuel to move teams to another ground.
Seriously, we should be sending them a ship with fuel, they have 1 days reserves at the moment

Either did I.
Feels like he was making hundreds at will, but a bit like Smith plenty of +50, not converted it seems

Nothing like finding out the Crows aren't that bad by getting the Redbacks dusted off
