Can't see the Aussies winning this series our batting line up seems far from settled not what you want against SA

Bill Manspeaker

goin the Aussies 2-1

we're a much better team at home. Smiddy and Warner will go nuts... hopefully. I want Head to play as well

not sure what the injury list is looking like but hopefully our bowlers are good to go. mostly Starc

Jay

Not sold on our team at all, but we'll probably win. Maybe a different story if De Villiers was playing.

What is the lineup going to look like?

Warner
Burns
Khawaja
Smith
Voges
MMarsh
Neville
Starc
Siddle
Hazlewood
Lyon

I have no idea who the 3rd seamer will be. Damn I'd love Ryan Harris nibbling away :'(

If they're not gonna bowl Marsh (which has seemed to be the case in our last few tests), then there is no point in playing him as his batting isn't good enough. I actually rate his bowling but bloody hell, he never gets given a run at it.

I hope the players are all rested up I saw Hazelwood was rested , going out and bowling 10 overs a couple weeks before a test could exhaust him same with the batsmen the last thing we want is players actually playing competitive cricket before test matches  ::)

Shame about the 2 Michael's though :-\

Talk of one of the ex-Pakistani quicks (Forgot who) doing spells too during the later tests :o

Pups a good commentator.

Bill Manspeaker

yeah I like Pup. he was my favourite player for 10 years (or for however long he played), so I love that he's commentating

Because of him Brett Lee and Mike Hussey left though... :'(
