What a load of rubbish!
Finch 14/24, Carey 5/11, khawaja 34/51, marsh 39/54, stoinis 10/20 handscomb 58/63 Maxwell 26/19
5 of our top 6 failed to to get a 50 and were striking between 45 and 72 and who do you blame?
Maxwell who comes in at number 7 and tried to save us the game.
Maxwell gets a 7/10 for the series and it’s finch, Carey, khawaja and stoinis that are to blame for our batting woes.

Is Glenn Maxwell the Big Show or a no-show?

“and he should have a pretty fair idea what target’s required”
We needed at least 280 and he needed to up the strike rate to get there as the top 5 failed.
It took a great catch to get him out and I am not convinced that had he got Dhoni we would have won. More likely it would have not got to the last over.
Maxwell is the last person to be blamed and he should replace finch as captain.
Finch should be lucky if he plays in the World Cup.

Is Glenn Maxwell the Big Show or a no-show?

He bowled poorly at the death and takes too many balls to get going.
He could be a number 7/8.

Sloppy Australia hand India 2-1 series win

Don’t blame Maxwell when the top order screwed up.
No mention of stoinis who has done nothing to justify his place at 6.
Maxwell knew we needed at least 280 and he did his best to try to get there.
They should have won it easily but Dhoni nearly cost them the game.
Finch has failed as a batsmen and captain and has to be replaced.

Is Glenn Maxwell the Big Show or a no-show?

But he nearly cost them the game.
With Karthik and Shankar waiting to bat he should have gone much harder.
Siddle and stoinis bowled poorly at the death and Maxwell should have bowled more than a over.
Unless finch gets runs in bbl he should be dropped together with Carey and khawaja.
Even if he is picked Maxwell should take over captaincy.

Maxwell.
He is doing well for the stars and helped finch in the Odis.

Glenn Maxwell dropping a sitter? Not remotely possible

It is not in the same country.
He has failed here in Australia and didn’t deserve selection in front of Maxwell and Paterson

Patterson ton versus Sri Lanka upstages Test rivals

Recent form is what counts.

Don’t be a hypocrite and demote yourself down the order.

Aaron Finch defends ODI spot despite lean run

The selectors have a lot of explaining on what basis was Labuschagne and Renshaw selected.
Burns at least made runs this season but they haven’t.

Australia's batting future on show in Hobart today

Finch hasn’t scored as many runs over the last little while in one-day cricket to justify taking up a top-four spot.
Does Finch remember what he said of Maxwell?

India square the ledger but Aussies go down fighting in ODI thriller

India don’t have 7 batsmen and they won.
India have 2 openers that get them to a good start that helps the middle order.
All we need is 6 proper batsmen and number 7 that can bat a bit.
It’s the combination that we stuffed up.

India square the ledger but Aussies go down fighting in ODI thriller

If they slowly get to 50 and get out they have the same blame.
Marsh was brilliant yesterday but he needs a batsmen with a higher strike rate to bat with him.

Jhye Richardson and Jason Behrendorff paper over the Australian selection and tactical cracks

Next game he has to bat down the order at 7 and let Maxwell or stoinis to open with khawaja.
We need to get a good start like India and I can’t see finch and Carey doing that.

Next game drop Carey, Siddle and khawaja for marsh, Zampa and Stanlake

India square the ledger but Aussies go down fighting in ODI thriller

He has 2 games to score runs or I would drop him and have hanscomb keep so we could add a extra batsmen or bowler.

Alex Carey defends Glenn Maxwell's low position in batting order

As long as the top order fire and you have at the other end a hanwscomb, Maxwell or stoinis.
Khawaja and marsh, 2 accumulators can’t bat together.

Jhye Richardson and Jason Behrendorff paper over the Australian selection and tactical cracks

Australia were chasing 320 against sa and lost by 40 runs.
Lynn 0, finch 11/15, marsh 106/102, head 6/21, stoinis 63/76, Carey 42/41 then Maxwell at 7 35/27 when the runs rate was over 10 a over.
We lost the game as we had no one striking over 100.
Maxwell has to bat no lower than 4/5.

Mitch Marsh in the mix for second ODI

I have no issue with m marsh in the odi team as long as he is scoring runs.
He didn’t have a good start to the bbl. Would you replace him with stoinis?

Is 5 balls enough?

Alex Carey defends Glenn Maxwell's low position in batting order

India know better than finch how valuable Maxwell is and were happy he didn’t come in earlier last game and hope the same this game.
Is Carey thinking we are playing t20?
3 overs in a 50 over game is nothing.
He should focus on his own batting as he played a stupid shot to get out and deserves to bat at 7 or even get replaced by handscomb who is much better batsmen.

Mitch Marsh in the mix for second ODI

If he isn’t scoring at the top he needs to give others a chance.
He is putting pressure on the rest of the team with his failures.

Jhye Richardson and Jason Behrendorff paper over the Australian selection and tactical cracks

We got lucky that India batted worse than us as India would chase down a score under 300 most games.
Carey khawaja and marsh have an average strike rate of 80 and finch 89.
Maxwell 121, Handscomb 105 and stoinis 99 need to be higher up the order and bat together with an accumulator.
Finch has to move down the order.

Jhye Richardson and Jason Behrendorff paper over the Australian selection and tactical cracks

Who asked finch to demote Maxwell publicly?
There is no justification for him to bat at 7 and if anyone it’s finch that should bat at the lower order as if he wasn’t captain he wouldn’t be in the team.

Jhye Richardson and Jason Behrendorff paper over the Australian selection and tactical cracks

If he doesn’t score runs than Hanscomb would allow an extra batsmen or bowler.
