    The last four batsmen for Sri Lanka all got their highest test scores.

    Hopefully, that bodes well for our batsmen.

      Interesting to see Andre Adams right up this First Class wickets list. Chat's average is a good reminder that Hadlee didn't take lots of wickets just 'because no-one at the other end' at the top level.

        John Wright first obviously given I’m fairly sure he opened his entire career. Who is third ? Scrolling down the list I’m assuming Glenn Turner then Mark Richardson.

        It’s not a position we’ve had an abundance of talent in to be fair ( then again historically you could say that about every role )

          Latham needs to have one of his significantly large home innings right now, I cant see him and Devon being on 200/0 later today though..no chance

          I’m looking forward to this being a massive reverse jinx.

                Wow, I’m genuinely shocked that Martin Guptill who had what I’ve always thought of as a short and unsuccessful test career is sixth !!

                  With Conway & Williamson out and 200+ runs behind, this is when Nicholls at 4 and Bracewell at 7 suddenly starts to look a little ominous.

                      D K Morrison and M C Sneddon also on the list, each with a well compiled 1* to win a Test match together.

                        Be positive. Mitch jr and Blundell thrive for adversity. I’d certainly like that run rate to lift though !

                            Nicholls should only be selected if the opposition agrees to field with 11 Phil Tufnell's.

                              I saw we are now three down and just knew it would be Nicholls.

                              Christ his runs are drying up at an alarming rate. So much for stepping up after Rossco retired !

                                We don't have a No. 4 now so i don't see why we shouldn't try Phillips

                                    Wow, I’m genuinely shocked that Martin Guptill who had what I’ve always thought of as a short and unsuccessful test career is sixth !!

                                    Rod Latham averages more than Tom!!!

                                      i think people are getting confused, the filter is on batting at 1 or 2 only, Rod did play 4 tests, 2 of which were at 1 or 2 the other two were not

                                        It was long and unsuccessful. He was just persisted with because he was good at shorter forms. His average his actually worse than it looks and padded against weaker teams.

                                          If ever there was an incentive for Tom to increase his average at opener, surely that's it. Tom "5000 runs as an opener, second only to J Wright", Dad " You're also second as an opener on batting average in this family lol"
