Test Openers in Australian Cricket Matches from the Year 2000
In the dynamic world of international cricket, the position of Test opener for Australia has not always been stable. This week, we're challenging you to put your cricket knowledge to the test with a quiz that requires naming every player who has opened the batting for Australia in Test cricket in the 21st century, across both men's and women's teams.
With a total of 45 players to be identified, this quiz promises to be an exciting test of your memory and cricket trivia skills. One player has opened over 200 times for Australia this century, across 13 years between 2011 and 2024. Another long-time pairing has opened on over 100 occasions, while only one woman has opened the batting in Tests more than 10 times.
Notable names such as Matthew Hayden, Justin Langer, Simon Katich, Ed Cowan, and David Warner are among those who have opened the batting for Australia in Test cricket during the 21st century. Can you recall them all?
The quiz, which has a time limit of 9 minutes, can be found on the website for all cricket updates. The website provides live scores, match stats, quizzes, latest cricket news, player updates, team standings, match highlights, video analysis, and live match odds.
Please note that the quiz was last updated on August 19, 2025, and it is recommended to refresh the website if the quiz does not load properly.
As the current men's team faces an issue with an Ashes series on the horizon, as there is no clear pair to open the batting, this quiz might just give you an edge in understanding the history and depth of Australia's Test opening batting lineup.
So, are you ready to take up the challenge? Let's see how well you know your Australian Test openers of the 21st century!
