Fifth Test: England v Australia
Langer opened for Australia in era where they dominated world cricket

Justin Langer played 105 Tests for Australia and scored 7696 runs at a healthy average of 45.27. He hit 23 hundreds and 30 fifties.

Although the left-hander was one of the best openers in the longest format, he could only play 8 ODIs as Australia had Mark Waugh, Adam Gilchrist, and Mathew Hayden in their ranks. He started his ODI career in 1994 and played his last match in 1997. He scored only 160 runs at an average of 32.
