Patto taking early wickets again. 2/1 from 4 overs.

That's 3 innings in succession he's taken top order wickets. Fingers crossed he remains uninjured. Imagine Starc, Pattinson and Cummins ripping through the Poms. :)

It's a game. Enjoy it. :D

If Copeland's in the frame at all, his 6/88 & 2/31 keep him alive.

However Sean Abbott's 7/45 brings him under notice.

Copeland 5/74 & 3/52. An 8 wicket haul in the SS final, and plenty of wickets in the qualifying rounds has him in with a chance.

However, he may lose out to James Pattinson, who's taken at least 3 top order wickets in his last 5 innings. 3/30 & 4/39, so far, in the final.

2/77 & 4/82 for Abbott.

Patterson 19 & 76 in the final.

Harris 141 & 23.

Pucovski 17 & 51.

Okay, he must be the first ever, then... because P*** had the chance when Virat, ABCDE & co. failed in the first game.

'Looking ahead to the Ashes, Saker said the balance of the Australian team would be vital, and pointedly noted that Mitchell Starc's bowling may only work in a bowling attack in English conditions that has five options rather than four.

"They've just got to be smart. Over there it's not all about air speed, it's about making sure you bowl the ball in the right areas," he said.'
