So we sort of knew that was in our favour during the run chase and if we could take it deep enough, it would be tough for the bowlers at the back end,” the Australia captain said.With his ton in the game against England, Josh Inglis has become only the fourth Australian to score centuries in all three formats alongside Glenn Maxwell, Shane Watson and David Warner.The wicketkeeping batter was born in Leeds and moved to Australia when he was 14 and still follows Coventry City’s football results.
