I think it was coz you went all out not naming any real stars cic. Sure all those guys were in form during the summer, but the Aussies can't go handing out 10 baggy greens every series.


And someone went back to Australia, i tihnk that explains why one of Forrest and Johnson are playing. (Can't remember which)

Mitchell Marsh and Moises Henriques are carrying injuries arent they?? Marsh has bead back problems.

I think Klingers probably the most unluckiest guy in your lists for the test squad, Shield top runscorer 3 years in a row last year and cant get a gig. Now that is messed up. houldve got the opening role before Cowan imho

yep agree. Cowan did well in one of the warm up games that got him in. Klinger might have to change his name to Brad Hodge.......(too soon ;D ;D)

Fixed for you ;)

Steve Smith was seen as the second coming of Cameron White. Can hit the ball occasionally, can bowl a bit when he feels like it.

Just as useless again good opposition though

PowerBug

Cummins is being sent home. So Johnson came in, no biggie really. At least the Aussie selectors want Cummisn over Johnson, which is what you want. :)


Big Ravi Bopara got England home yesterday! >:D


And on a side note, does anyone else think Tim Bresnan shouldn't be on a cricket field?? He is HUGE!

you're assuming that Australia is still the top nation in the world and all our current players are all world class

Mitchell Johnson is flowering useless, I can't stand watching him. The current series is beyond frustrating.
