‘Meticulous’ Marnus Labuschagne scores century and annoys England

“I think it’s just being meticulous. For me, it was pretty common sense. Like, why would I not want to have a look at the ball, especially in England, with overcast conditions.”

With Labuschagne the only wicket to fall on a shortened day four, Australia are relying on contrasting West Australian allrounders Marsh and Cameron Green to offer similar defiance on another day that appears likely to be heavily impacted by the weather.
