yep, I'm with you there.....& Travis Head sacrificial lamb!
....good grief. Warner & Harris will possibly go down in history as statistically worst opening combination we have ever had in a Test Series..and they both still get a gong.
And.....perfect opportunity to give Pucovski a go with little pressure on......but no....no imagination shown at all.
They are clearly worried about workload for the bowlers, since the Oval is generally the flattest track in the UK. With this Ashes series finishing so close to the Aussie summer, the last thing they need to do is grind Cummins, Hazlewood et al into the dust.
Clearly playing for a draw here.....
