Burns selected as opener for first Test.

Very, very lucky imo

That's a disgrace. His form is abysmal and he doesn't have any credits in the bank that justify overlooking that form.

Agree. Baffling.

To be partnered by:

a) The player averaging 95 in the Shield
b) The player who has a decent home test record as an opener and against the pink ball (who also made a ton last time out)
c) The specialist opener who made 239 six weeks ago
d) The player who averages 31 in tests and has never opened in first class cricket

(Admittedly it's a shallow field)

How am i supposed to spend most of the day covertly watching the cricket if it's not even on yet? It wouldn't even be that hard now working from home.

I could marry the pitch.

[Swallow_Wood]

Pitch is pretty tame, not much assistance for the bowlers.
