Australian Squad for India tour

FFS you silly Saffy, get the attribution right. HIlditch said that, not me.

And I'd suggest that the hardest assignment in Test cricket at the moment is getting Pakistan to play a game that appears legit and above board in all respects.

You all look the same to me.

any takers on predictions of the number of wickets Stevie Nix will take and average on tour?

We heard you and ignored you the first time, h.

Hazlewood out of India tour

A back injury has forced fast bowler Josh Hazlewood out of Australia's Test squad for the coming tour of India.

The New South Wales quick has developed the early stages of a low back bone stress injury, according to a press release from Cricket Australia.

Hazlewood's Blues teammate Mitchell Starc and Victorian James Pattinson are the standby players to ensure adequate cover with the first Test against India beginning on October 1 in Mohali.

Pattinson is currently with the Victorian squad playing in the Champions League Twenty20 in South Africa and will remain with the Bushrangers until their finals aspirations are determined.

"The injury to Josh is obviously very disappointing as he is one of the young fast bowlers we have identified as having an important role of to play in Australia's future," chairman of selectors Andrew Hilditch said.

Team physio Alex Kountouris said he will require a rest from bowling "to allow the bone stress to resolve."

its still pouring in mohali. heaviest monsoons in almost 40 years. pitch might not be fully ready

FMD.

Wiki says James Pattinson is the older brother of England player Darren Pattinson. Is that right - the older bit? Hardly a ringing endorsement for the future of Aus cricket.

Younger brother.

Actually, I think he could be pretty good... even with the handicap of being a Vixen.

And could be the only brothers to play cricket for different countries?

patto_man! is a good young kid.

Ah yes, I read the Wiki entry and subliminally added an "is" where there wasn't one.

One of the Hearnes played for Jappan (as well as the Soap Dodgers) and two others played for the Soap Dodgers

Hazelwood struggled in the recent emerging players' tournament in Brisbane.

Starc goes OK.

Aye Skully, good to see Starkers named in the squad now if he actually gets a game is another matter

Probably not. Well not the 2 Tests. He may get a go in the JAMODIs.

Peter George called up. Was Starc officially called up or just mooted?

I saw Starc on the news at Sydney airport with Ponting, so I think he's in India.

Awesome. A guy who isn't good enough to make the South Australian side is called up to bowl for us against Tendulkar, Sehwag, Laxman and Dravid.

Pattinson, Starc, and George. When was the last time Australia toured with three uncappped fast bowlers in the one squad?
