Didn’t get his as keeper did he?
Nope, all as a specialist batsman, free of the significant additional mental and physical fatigue of keeping wickets. The difference that tends to make is significant even with outliers like Andy Flower or Gilchrist who the rule-proving exceptions

@booboo Important for Santner to get some runs. Needs to contribute with the bat consistently to stay in the side

A good day out in the sun, and a classic grind of a test match day.
The bowling attack was a very curious selection. Santner is a waste of a place in tests, and today was calling for someone like Ferguson who can actually bowl faster than military medium with the new (and old) ball.
