Player of the Match: Tom Latham
It was just one of those days when everything worked out nicely, according to Tom Latham, Player of the Match. "Together, we created a partnership, had a little fun, and responded to events. It's important to be in commanding positions and respond to their bowling. able to identify the gaps. It was fantastic, the preparation was excellent, and I was able to strike the ball squarely today. It was a little challenging to play against Sundar as he was gaining some turns. Small ground that we could eventually profit from. It's simply one of those days; I have no idea where that came from."
