Australia’s Test summer plans have been given a major jolt by Cameron Green flying home immediately from England with a back injury, as the ODI team crumbled against the resurgent hosts at Lord’s.
In his earlier days, Green had a history of back stress fractures, and most recently suffered one during the 2019-20 summer with Western Australia, when he was forbidden to bowl. A similar scenario this season would mean Green is still available to play against India - but for his batting and fielding alone.
While Brook backed up his Durham century with another innings of timing and invention, it was Liam Livingstone who put most space between the teams by hammering seven sixes on his way to 62 from a mere 27 balls. “Probably not,” Head said when asked if he had hit any bigger. “It would’ve been nice to hit a few more, but I felt like I’m hitting the ball nicely, could just do it for longer.”But once the openers were separated, the white ball began to dart around sharply under the floodlights, presenting ideal conditions for Matthew Potts, Jofra Archer and Carse. The Australians floundered, losing 6-28 to more or less end the contest, before the lower order scrambled to 126.
