Ashes 2017: 2nd Test, day 4, 5 things we learnt from the day

#2 Vince gets back into his routine

Vince is back to getting starts and throwing it away

James Vince was a strange selection for this Ashes series. He was guilty of wasting too many starts, appearing on top of his game before giving it all away with a wild swipe during his Test career before this call-up.

However, most of that talk was silenced on Day 1 of the series when Vince cracked a fine half-century, cut short only by a piece of magical fielding by Nathan Lyon.

But since then, the patchy Vince of old has made a reappearance. There have still been the usual starts, but the temperament and composure have gone missing again with his problem of driving majestically one ball and then driving loosely the next popping up again.
