It sounds like a logic puzzle you see someone show on Instagram. Like, how can a team not be dismissed, and also smash the fresh hell out of the ball?

And for the first time, there is finally a bit of sense happening on the table.

Everything is about context. If you hear a Cradle of Filth song in a dark and dingy club on the dodgy side of town, it seems right. If you are in a pharmacy buying some tissues and you hear:“Maleficent in dusky roseGathered satin lapped Her breastsLike blood upon the snowA tourniquet of Topaz.”It is going to stick out. Context. When Virender Sehwag played in Test cricket it stuck out. No one had attacked that hard at the top before.

A new power rankings, and it’s been another week in which the highly rated teams have decided to have a sleep in. But some of the sides down in our expectations are shining. As always, the power rankings don't represent the points table, but really are passed down to us by golden pigeons who look at strength of schedule, future games, who you beat and how, and then make it all up before crapping on us as they fly away. Good Areas is a reader-supported publication.

This is one of the greatest eras ever for pace bowling. The 1950s was the last decade that had a lower average, and that was a period where teams struggled to make runs or take wickets. Now, we get plenty of fast runs and even quicker wickets. It’s not just this decade; it actually started earlier in 2018. The last seven years have been incredible for fast bowlers. Only in one year have the batters gone at more than 30 against them.

Australia were 373 runs away from the target when Travis Head got out in the fourth innings at Perth. Yet, Jasprit Bumrah and Virat Kohli celebrated the wicket passionately. And they had good reason to—it was a terrific delivery. But it was also Head’s wicket. It means more these days. Across all formats, Bumrah and Head are two of the best male cricketers on the planet. Head’s scoring rate is like an unstoppable force, and that’s meeting an immovable object—Bumrah’s pinpoint accuracy.

At the start of 2019, Travis Head was co Test vice-captain. Yet, after nearly two years, he was dropped from the team. No one ever talked about his vice-captaincy again. He looked like a lost talent—a batter who only wanted to slash square on the offside, while struggling against spin and right-arm seam around the wicket.

Find someone who makes the pink ball talk the way Mitchell Starc does. With the red one, Starc is relatively ordinary in Tests. He is good early in the innings, can still get great bounce, and when cricket had reverse swing, he was good at that. But his record suggests that he’s slightly above replacement-level with the red ball.
