    Axed Australia opener Sam Konstas found form, scoring a confidence-boosting century for New South Wales in the Sheffield Shield.

    Enduring a difficult period after his incredible Test debut last Boxing Day, the 20-year-old reached three figures just before tea on day one of NSW's match against Queensland at the SCG on Friday.

    It was his fourth first-class ton, and his first in the Shield since making twin centuries against South Australia in October 2024, before forcing his way into Australia's XI.

    Konstas and fellow former Australia batter Kurtis Patterson helped NSW motor to the tea break at 221 for 1 after Konstas' opening partner, Matthew Gilkes, was dismissed for 55 by Gurinder Sandhu.

    Axed Australia opener Sam Konstas has found form, scoring a confidence-boosting century for NSW in the Sheffield Shield.

    Enduring a difficult period after his incredible Test debut last Boxing Day, the 20-year-old reached three figures just before tea on day one of the Blues' match against Queensland at the SCG.

    It was Konstas' fourth first-class ton, and his first in the Shield since making twin centuries against South Australia in October 2024, before forcing his way into Australia's XI.

    The aggressive right-hander made a century for Australia A against India A in September, but that came on a flat pitch in Lucknow when just 13 wickets fell across four days.

    Stuart Broad is an effective agent provocateur because he jabs at real sore points. Broad launched the phoney Ashes war last month when he said this was England’s best Ashes team since it trampled all over Australia in 2010-11 and Australia’s worst since then. It’s true that the runes read so surprisingly well for England that even Josh Hazlewood was moved to pay a compliment to their batting, and ominously poorly for a conspicuously unsettled Australia.

    Ashes grudges die hard, but genuine hatred would kill sport’s oldest rivalry

    Usman Khawaja's graceful acceptance of a possible reprieve for one of the Lord's members who abused him and the rest of the Australian team in the Long Room two years ago brought some welcome perspective to the pre-Ashes silly season.

    England's cricket contest against Australia may be the oldest grudge match in world sport, but its longevity is as much about the preservation of respect between players and supporters from both nations as it is about the sparks that fly from time to time.

    THE KEY ISSUES AND TALKING POINTS AHEAD OF THE 2025-26 ASHES IN AUSTRALIA

    Since Brendon McCullum took over as coach in 2022, England's win rate away from home is 50 per cent (8-8). The only time 'Bazball' faced a fellow Test powerhouse on the road, they were smoked 4-1 by India in early 2024. England will start the Ashes having played just one warm-up game, against their second XI, in Australia. But a key attribute of 'Bazball' is being positive so they won't lack confidence in believing they can be the England team to break a 14-year Test wins drought in Australia.

    Already the second-highest run-scorer in Test history behind only Sachin Tendulkar, Joe Root's place among the greats is secure. But the black mark against his name is never having posted a century in Australia in 14 matches. His average here of 35.68 sits well below his career figure of 51.29. If England are to have any chance of reclaiming the Ashes in Australia, Root is going to need to make multiple tons.
