Scott Boland bowling in the nets at the MCG to Victoria rookie Jai Lemire. He’s not playing this #SheffieldShield game but likely to be back in the coming weeks

The disconnect between Joe Burns and the Italian Cricket Federation is real and delicate. From Italy's perspective, Burns is no longer a required player for the upcoming T20 World Cup following a series of disagreements internally. As for Burns, he has voiced his concerns to the World Cricketers' Association (WCA). He's always maintained he was playing to honour his late brother, but now Derbyshire skipper Wayne Madsen will captain & ex-South African player JJ Smuts has made himself available. It's a bit of a mess Burns & Italy didn't need. @SEN_Cricket @1116sen

The spirit of cricket alive and kicking in this Ashes series. Here’s England assistant Jeetan Patel gloving Pat Cummins’ warm-up balls before play on Thursday morning

As it currently stands, this 60-run, 147-ball stand between Ben Stokes and Will Jacks is the slowest partnership of the Bazball era #Ashes

Justin Langer had two Test opening partners for his entire career. Jake Weatherald had two in two days cricket.com.au/news/4407709

Jake Weatherald’s mum used to ‘bowl’ to him by hitting a tennis ball at him with a racquet under their elevated house in Darwin. The Top End was long overdue a first Test cricketer #Ashes cricket.com.au/news/4406096

The first born - and bred - from the NT, Jake Weatherald's journey to the Baggy Green has been anything but ordinary @LouisDBCameron | #Ashes cricket.com.au/news/4406096

The skipper Steve Smith batting in the Perth Stadium nets well before any of the other Aussie players and coaches have arrived. Fitting that another relentlessly hard-working batter Mike Hussey is the one flinging to him on #Ashes eve

Leaping into a lively Perth net to face the Aussie skipper in red hot form showed what Jake Weatherald is about! @LouisDBCameron | #Ashes cricket.com.au/news/4403784/

Injuries to Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood opened the door for Brendan Doggett’s first international call-up in 2018. Seven years on, the absence of those same two bowlers should see him win a Baggy Green this week #Ashes cricket.com.au/news/4404279

Tassie get out of jail at Silverwater #ODC

It’s actually really happening right now. Four metres of pure limbs. Glorious to see

@benjonescricket #SchoonerViz

Never thought I'd say this but the Schooner Scorer has clearly done wonders for Steve Smith's batting

It’s happening #WTCFinal

Harry Dixon (19) was eight months old when Peter Siddle (40) made his first-class debut #SheffieldShield

Most Test centuries in Sri Lanka by visiting batters: 5 - Sachin Tendulkar 4 - Steve Smith* 3 - Azhar, Dhawan, Lara, Ashraful, Pujara, Root, Sehwag, Younis #SLvAUS

@DanielCherny you're not good enough for theories

Josh Inglis batting in the nets right now. Theoretically due in next but that’s unlikely after his back stiffness. codesports.com.au/cricket/austra…

@beastieboy07 I know that feeling

Beau Webster at first slip looks a bit restricted like a really tall fellow made to share an auto rickshaw ride with two others #SLvAus

@patrickhhenning c'mon mate, we've got enough spin in Galle right now

@LouisDBCameron Shield & Aus A programs just doing a job, too

You'd have to think that's the first time Australia have had three separate debutants pass fifty in consecutive Tests. Konstas, Webster, now Inglis - selectors seeing them okay at the moment #SLvAUS

At risk of a mozz on Josh Inglis, the last three Australians to score a ton on Test debut were also all Western Aussies: - Voges v WI in 2015 - SMarsh v SL in 2011 - North v SAF in 2009
