Match Details:
 Match: | ENG vs AUS – 1st Test |
 Date: | Jun 16 – Jun 20, 2023 |
 Time: | 10:00 AM (GMT) |
 Venue: | Edgbaston, Birmingham |
 Toss: | England, Bat 1st |
Pitch Report: The pitch at Edgbaston is favorable to bowlers. Pacers, specifically, can extract more help from this pitch due to the pace and bounce on offer. They would look to swing the ball and trouble batters, while batters should think of a way to counter the swing. Teams would like to bat after winning the toss, with the average first innings total being 214 runs.
Ben Stokes: We’ll bat first. Looks a great cricket wicket. Good toss to win. Very proud to be here with all the hype around, very special moment for me and the team. It has been tough at times with the energy, but that has been something we are good at in the past. Happy to have Mo back, unfortunate injury to Leachy. I’ve seen Mo produce some great performances in the past, we know what he can bring to the team.
Pat Cummins: We’d have batted as well. One change, Mitch Starc out, Hazlewood comes in. Tough call, Starc was really good last game but good to have someone like Hazlewood come in. Tough to manage the workloads, we’ll assess things week by week, but that is a good problem to have. Good preparation to win the WTC final, we went into that fresh, we feel well suited and we are now eager to go. England will come at us, but that’s okay…
