Ashton Agar saves Australia

I’ve been keeping an eye on the first test of the Ashes whilst at work with the live score from the BBC.

My slight displeasure with the England first innings was put aside when England’s bowlers started to take the Aussie batsman apart and when their number 11 took to the crease I was sure that their first innings was close to and end. How wrong was I? I’d never even heard of Ashton Agar before this week, but I’m sure we are going to be hearing a lot more from him in the future.

A score of 98 off 101 balls is superb but for a debutant coming in at number 11 it is unbelievable!
