The three roles of APCs:
Transports.
Supply trucks.
Distractions.

Malan with the now-traditional "rage against the dying of the light" century by an England rookie at Perth (cf Cook in 06/07 and Stokes in 13/14).

e: not quite so dying in this case, at least it's a first-innings ton this time

Malan batted really well to give him his due. Bairstow has been a bit arsey at times with a lot of inside edges but Malan i cant remember offering up anything more than that edge on 92

Probably, but I'm hoping it's Vince after this. Shockingly, he still has the exact same technique issue he's always had.

The importance of this mission cannot be overemphasized
Overton is the guy who replaced Stokes as the fourth seamer. Malan was already in the team batting five from the summer. Vince replaced Westley at 3.

Good on him and all that but he's been mainly garbage. Not as garbage as Vince, but still. He'll be in for the foreseeable now anyway. When the series is lost he'll probably be moved up to 3 in place of Vince, Bairstow up another place and Foakes in.

Our review identified changes needed to be made and, in Stephen, we have a coach who has a reputation for demanding the highest standards.
Whichever guy you want to get rid of, bear in mind he just has to hang on for the NZ series and that's the one guy that will topscore v us

Dumb wickets against the run of play, and we're into the tail. Bairstow's gonna be super dangerous, though.
