Overton will be on soon to relieve the pressure
The difference between the 2 teams. When Starc and Hazelwood are done, they have Cummins and Lyon. We have Overton and Stokes (who can bowl good spells but is largely expensive)

Sorry for harping on about this, but god it's difficult for opening batsman in test cricket nowadays, and that's for experienced ones!

Roy should never in a million years been put there.

Everyone getting stuck into him, when he clearly should not have been put there.

Yeah it was easy in the past against Lillee, Thomson, Marshall, Holding, Roberts, Hadlee, Imran, Kapil Dev, Donald ........

Well yeah but I could similaly reel of class opening batsman who are a lot better than today's bunch.

Haynes, Greenidge, Gavasker etc etc

Not sure what you saying are you disputing it's not difficult for opening batsman this series and in test cricket as a whole?
