For some reason he is one of those players I feel constantly nervous about when he is facing a delivery.

I like Burns and I think his average will only improve. He does tend to lose his wicket foolishly. Is the issue with our openers playing too much of the white ball game?
Sibley seems to be a lot more patient than most even if his batting style is a little off putting.
I am not suggesting we drop him mind, I have just found it odd how much praise he has had. I have seen him on all the Sky shows, and podcats, as a pundit an expert on opening the batting, its like mate, you havent cracked it yourself yet
He digs in just seems to to give it away, so many moving parts to his technique it can happen I guess.
Yeah Sibley is patient, as long as he has the mentality he will be fine.

Quite impressed with Sibley
Patient definitely but at the same time he is a bit one paced. Even when he's well set he seems unable to target a bowler and put a team to the sword
fwiw I like Sibley and Burns, but I think Burns has so far got the best chance of being a long-term fixture in the side
