Sam Konstas showed great form on his debut. He made it to the playing eleven in place of Nathan McSweeney. Apart from this, senior batsmen like Usman Khawaja were also in poor form. He silenced the critics by scoring 60 runs in 65 balls in his first innings and laid the foundation to change the course of the match.
