England may have unearthed a gem in Josh Tongue - but must be more clinical in Ashes
England will hope they have unearthed a new gem in Josh Tongue, who secured a place on the Lord’s honours board on debut.
A tall figure at 6 foot 4, Tongue brings a new depth to England’s pace attack, with an extra lick to set him apart from the likes of James Anderson, Stuart Broad and Ollie Robinson.
Preferred to Chris Woakes, Tongue has earned a longer opportunity to impress, after performing in his first ever game at the home of cricket, taking five for 66 in the second innings, as England won by 10 wickets.
