Guardian,Men's Test XI,Cricket

The Guardian reveals its tenth annual men's Test XI of the year, selected by a panel of experts. Some teams played so little this year that it was difficult to pick any of their players.

After 32 Tests, 33,408 runs, 1,016 wickets, it’s time at last for the Guardian ’s tenth annual men’s Test XI of the year. This year’s selectors were Vic Marks, Ali Martin, Rob Smyth, Tanya Aldred, Taha Hashim, Geoff Lemon, Adam Collins, Emma John, Tim de Lisle, Daniel Gallan and Andy Bull.

Depressingly, some teams (South Africa, Pakistan, Bangladesh) played so little this year that it was hard to pick any of their players, which feels like a worrying sign of the way the game is going, but for now …You’d need a hard heart not to take pleasure in watching the late years of Khawaja’s career after all his ups and downs along the way. He’s been better than ever since he came back into Test cricket in 2022. This year he made three monumental hundreds against South Africa in Sydney, India in Ahmedabad and England at Edgbasto

Nathan Lyon celebrates 500 Test wickets as Australia win against PakistanNathan Lyon of Australia celebrates taking 500 Test wickets on day four of the first Test against Pakistan in Perth. Attendance today was 9244, pretty thin for a Sunday and it certainly looked sparse in this huge arena. Total attendance for the four days of the match was 59,125. A slightly bigger thrashing than the one that India’s women dished out to England yesterday, Australia win by one run for every degree in a circle. Fitting for a well rounded victory. Huge score first, Warner century, Marsh nearly made on of his own. Comprehensive bowling performance in the second innings, wickets shared around. Solid third innings to recover after a bad start, another contribution from Marsh and an important one for Khawaja. Then Lyon reaching his milestone as part of another group performance against a team that had had enough. Two in two to end it!
