Ashes 2017/18, 4th Test: Hits and misses

Miss: Cameron Bancroft

It seems that the time is running out for Cameron Bancroft, who nudged Matt Renshaw out of the picture and became the first opener to debut in an Ashes series since Michael Slater in 1993.

The 25-year-old, Gloucestershire player's technique got exposed, particularly against the short ball, as he failed to impress in his high-profile debut series.

David Warner's 10th opening partner in Test cricket, Bancroft, has scored 179 runs at an average of 29.83 in the series, raising questions about his positioning and technique.

With the important tour of South Africa starting in March, Bancroft will have to score big in the final Ashes Test at the SCG in order to remain in contention for the upcoming crunch series.
