David Warner 

Broad clearly had Warner last time around, so plan A with the new ball will be obvious. If Warner gets in, not a lot changes. But you do offer him that ball into his right armpit quite often. That flicky pull shot that he plays can get him into trouble. We all know about Warner’s record, but he hasn’t scored many runs in Test cricket of late. England had a great time against him in 2019. If they can dismiss him cheaply in Brisbane, they can revive those memories.

Marnus Labuschagne

At number three and four, Australia have two very high-class players. The key for both will be the first 25-30 balls – bring Labuschagne and Smith forward on and around off stump, and the odd ball nips back.

You’ve got to hope for a bit of movement. And there’s always a chance of an error – remember they’re human beings.

The early plans to Labuschagne and Smith should be clear enough. The more that they bat takes you out of their simplicity. Last year, India bowled very straight to Labuschagne with quite a packed onside field. That’s not a bad option if he gets in as he’s an lbw or nick off candidate.
