Dan Lawrence is not an opener, says Geoffrey Boycott on batter’s outings in Manchester

Boycott said Lawrence is very much like Dom Sibley, who opened for England in Tests, in terms of obsession with playing on the leg-side. “He reminds me of Dom Sibley, who had moderate success opening for England in 22 Tests. Lawrence favours the leg side and looking to score there all the time can be his undoing. That’s how he got out second innings, leg-before playing across the line instead of straight.”
