Handscomb as well

'Soft, reckless, way over the edge': Greats savage sweep-happy Aussies' disaster, Warner's unlucky break - Talking Points

You can’t prepare someone like Carey who will repeatedly play stupid shots.

'Soft, reckless, way over the edge': Greats savage sweep-happy Aussies' disaster, Warner's unlucky break - Talking Points

Agar is an average bits and pieces player who shouldn’t be anywhere near an Australian Test side.

Selectors letting Warner down by not dropping him - 'really struggling, feet not moving', Handscomb settles in: Talking Points

And nobody is going to miss him. He is a bits and pieces player. He can neither bat nor bowl. One of the most overrated players of Australia in some time.

How was Lyon unlucky?? He was bowling poorly. Most of his deliveries were 95 kph plus. He just doesn’t know what pace to bowl in these conditions after all these years!

Humiliated: Australia skittled in a session as Indian spinners set up innings victory

I have never understood the appeal of Kane Richardson. He keeps leaking runs but always gets selected in the squad. How this guys gets picked ahead of guys like Behrendorff, Ellis, Jhye will always remain a mystery!!

Australia's T20 World Cup title defence all but over despite edging out Afghanistan after Starc's surprise axing

Carey has become a serial offender. To me he always seems to be in a hurry. He should be put on notice and if he doesn’t learn should be kicked out.
I think Head did ok. But one man who seems to in funky mood is Marnus. He always seems to go to backfoot and flick which he can easily play straight. Handscomb was a better odi player than him.

Australia spun out of Sri Lanka ODI series

Marnus and Carey have been throwing their wickets away on a regular basis. Handscomb was a better odi palyer than Marnus who was harshly ousted from the odi side.
Marnus tries to be too funky with his shots insted of playing straight. And Carey seems to be in always hurry as if he has to go to toilet.

Australia spun out of Sri Lanka ODI series

Australia lost wickets playing unnecessary shots. A bit of resilience would help Australia get 270 or 280. Perhaps that wouldn’t be enough knowing the way Australia bowled and specially fielded.
Head needs to improve his fielding. He is dropping catches on a regular basis.

Babar hammers Australian attack to clinch series for Pakistan

Abbott is another Tye-leaks runs and bowls awfully at the death. Behrendorff must come in.

Aussies lose despite McDermott ton in Pakistan

That’s Nathan Lyon for you. He just bowls well enough to retain his position but couldn’t finish the job. He can’t win you a game on a fifth day.
He had a good spell of 3-4 overs but was innocuous for better part of two days.

Awesome Azam saves Test for Pakistan as Aussies ponder how they failed to take 10 wickets in 170 overs

Lyon looked dangerous!!!! pftt!!

'Maybe Mitch Marsh', 'Swepson deserves chance': Calls for bowling revamp after stalemate

This is really shocking!! It hit me like a bolt from the blue. Rip Shane.

'Utterly heartbreaking'; 'Can't quite believe it': Tributes flow for Shane Warne, 'the man who made spin cool'

Maxwell? When was the last time he played a first class game?

DAY 5 REPORT: Honeymoon’s over for Cummins as Aussies fail to finish off Poms in thriller

What an incredible performer he has been over a decade! A credit to his family, a credit to his country and most importantly a credit to our great game.

Tributes flow for Black Caps great after announcing retirement

I think Neser bowled pretty well in his 1st test and should habe been retained.

'Hopefully it's the start of something big': Boland revels in Test debut, keen to be Indigenous role model

Burns scored 4 test hundreds and 5 or 6 50s as well.

George Bailey’s tough decision and other thoughts from the second Test

So Neser’s rubbish results in wickets, not a bad credential.

FLEM'S VERDICT: Performance that ended an Aussie Test career, and the strategic flaw that killed England

Not for Paine, I am afraid.

'Extremely concerned': Paine takes 'mental health break' putting him OUT of first Test with career in doubt

If the keeper picked performs, then will you give Paine the swansong??
Paine has played little to no cricket since April, he is badly lacking match practice.

If you thik he will play for Australia again at the age of 37, I have nothing to say. He was going to retire after the ashes anyway.

Paine,’s career is over buddy. He won’t play for Australia again.

@Paul, do you think the coach should be a selector? A coach’s main job should be preparing the players. Instead, Langer is losing his hair because of these selection nightmares.

Australia's newest selector faces some serious headaches

I guess you want more consistency from your fast bowlers.
How long Starc’s currency of cleaning the tail or taking an early wicket will keep him in the side?

Tasmania lose SIX wickets for just 32 runs as fringe Ashes quick runs riot

JL is disappointed? Why? Paine is the toughest pretty boy after all. Paine is also supremely elite honest.

Paine reveals Langer's reaction and says he wants 'ultimate high' of playing in home Ashes win
