Nice Garry!

Where does a certain Mitch M. fit?
As an opening batsman, in his last 13 #SheffieldShield games, JOE BURNS has made…
1,197 runs @ 51.48
As a middle order batsman, in his last 15 #SheffieldShield games, AARON FINCH has made…
1,075 runs @ 44.05
Square pegs, square holes, round pegs, round holes.

Adds more perspective to Cheteshwar Pujara and Mayank Agarwal’s efforts in the first innings.
It's slow and low, it requires concentration, it is difficult to score quickly, but patience, sound technique and methodical batting are rewarded #AusvInd https://t.co/9esU630vSi
