The Aus bowlers certainly have had their injury history though. Look at the captain, how many years did he miss after his first test? Starc too, Pattinson probably the worse off.
None worse than Simon Jones though.

Not a great start for the Old Enemy, who look badly under done. The Gabbattoir seems to be living up to its reputation. Keen to see how Cummins handles being captain. Stoked to see Alex Carey given a gig; it was really cool having Gilly present him with his baggygreen. As for the tourists, they're in more trouble than the early settlers. Stokes looks stuffed, and Leach has been taken to the cleaners. I thought that Wood, Robinson and Woakes all bowled pretty well, and must all be cream crackered after having to pick up the slack created by Stokes and Leach. I was a bit surprised the Poms left out the tall blonde haired English medium pacer. Chuffed by Travis Head, who simply had to make runs in order to keep his position in the Australian team.
I hope everyone is well. I'll try and be a bit more present this summer, especially with a whitewash on the cards. I'm over this bloody pandemic, but I am enjoying the Red dawn that has been unfolding at Anfield.
