was this team selected by the old or new NSP?...why are there only 4 specialist bats plus a keeper/batsman?

by horace Fri 25 Nov 2011, 06:27

the new NSP has done the right thing by publicly ruling out the injured players now

All these injuries might have saved Haddin's and Ponting's places, if they were otherwise going to be jettisoned.

5 changes is plenty, 6 is diverting, and 7 is nearly 1977-78 WSC split panic standard.

prolly right....clarke will beg to keep haddit

I'm hoping that Wade scores a brilliant century in the As v NZ game.

Haddit has to go.

by lardbucket Fri 25 Nov 2011, 07:25

He'll be gone buy the end of the summer, for sure, but will they make that many changes first up?

I'm a bit worried about this too. I think Haddin might keep his spot. Certainly Cot will and Ponting will too.

Aye, Siddle is last man standing ...

by horace Fri 25 Nov 2011, 07:31

they should....he is the keeper version of Midge

You'd imagine as the replacement that flew to Saffieville, Warner's swift 65 is more than enough to cement his Test debut for Watto, but what if Ed Cowan makes a ton in a crab double v Snoozies in the 'A' game? Currently 60* off 115.

Personally, I'd fark Fuse off.

Meanwhile Smith - 0-11 and 8. WTF would the NSP bother?

He fields well.

And he always has a smile on his face.

Wonderful qualities for a Test class player. Now if he just learn to score 50s and take the odd wicket he may be worth a go.

He shouldn't get any more practice.

by Brass Monkey Fri 25 Nov 2011, 10:42

Watson, Cummins, Harris, Marsh, Johnson all injured?

Cowan makes 145, while Wade is not doing his cause any harm.

by Red Sat 26 Nov 2011, 03:15

Wade now out. The Aussie test squad to be named in forty-five mins.

by skully Sat 26 Nov 2011, 03:18

Neither will play in T1.
