It must be

Has anyone worked out how much Cummins has been paid over the years on a per over basis?

Coulter-Nile get a gurnsey but Bird misses out. Unbelievable.

Bird was only picked when NCN was injured

The uct has done sfa to warrant a contract. Cummins is the over rated rubber you have to have.

Why is Bog contracted?

Bit of a Marsh and Kjnr joke really.

So Taips are AB and Stain on reduced contracts?

I can explain it to you ...but I cant understand it for you

He is a chronic choker who almost invariably fails when it counts. You don't seem to get that. He is now in the late Autumn of his career and I do not see evidence of improvement or scope. Would prefer The likes of Bancroft, Head and Handscomb be rewarded. These guys are young and have scope. May as well give White or Cosgrove contracts as Bog.

I hope GCS, Haze et al who failed in the Ashes get reduced payments.

If Fit, Cummins would be a no-brainer, but the pea brained Medical team for Cricket Aus seem unable to treat/manage injuries.

The token Wozzie, however...

Qunt Denile clearly has pictures of Bacchus in suspenders and fishnets.
