The Ashes 2013: 1st Test - Five players to watch out for on Day 2

England v Australia: 1st Investec Ashes Test - Day One

England v Australia: 1st Investec Ashes Test - Day One

4. Brad Haddin

The wicket-keeper batsman, who also happens to be Australia’s vice captain, will have a job on his hand when he walks out on the wicket on Day 2. He will be hoping that Phil Hughes and Steven Smith can wither out the first two hours of the day so that he can capitalise on the good start to the day to take Australia’s score closer to England’s total.

Brad Haddin is a typical Australian cricketer, something that this team ironically lacks, and he will play his shots whatever be the situation without being reckless. Trott’s innings was testament to the fact that you get value for your shots at the ground, and it is inevitable that you will get a beauty sooner rather than later. If he can apply himself, Australia can hope to gain some sort of lead in this innings.
