I’d Bring in Warner and Maxwell. Australia is getting too bogged down with the bat and showing little intent to score. Maxi could be handy against Ashwin and Jadeja and provides a another spin option on the SCG deck.
Australia must swing the axe for Sydney
Or they could work in an office, factory, construction site all week…
Australian players weary, but there’s little respite in sight
Nice innings by Labuschagne. As for this whole series, Australia’s batting looks too timid for 2020 (the year not T20).
Labuschagne fires but Australia lose again in South Africa
True. The batsmen did a great job…
Glenn Maxwell sorely missed as Australia lose in South Africa
That’s the problem but unfortunately smacking bowlers of the caliber of Clive Rose doesn’t really indicate International quality.

I think you are overestimating the standard of the BBL.

Are you suggesting a “team first” mentality?
Glenn Maxwell's injury exposes Australia's dearth of middle-order batsmen
This is because opening is the easiest position in limited overs cricket. The field is up, the ball is hard, and it makes guys look better than what they actually are. Middle/late order batsmen need to be busy and inventive to be successful. Openers can get away with thrashing over the infield. This is why guys like Stoinis and Short get exposed down the order.

I don’t think they need a pace allrounder as Lyon and OKeefe are capable of bowling long spells. I’d be more inclined in picking 6 batsmen that can play spin and giving the bowlers something to defend.
Sheffield Shield once again a crucial battleground for Test spots
I actually preferred it as a state competition… it seemed to mean more.
Remembering the Big Bash before it became the BBL
They’ve got to up the standard. More quality International playing and less district cricketers. Batting numbers are inflated if you’re only having to see out one quality bowler. It’s also way too long. The International summer finishing January 5 was the killer blow. CA you’ve managed to stuff up the unstuffable.
Fan apathy for Stoinis shows growing understanding of T20 subtleties
Not the same…She’s standing up to 105kph
Aussie selectors set to Wade into the Marsh for last World Cup spot
BBL is such a low standard down from international’s.

Worst international summer on record. I personally missed our ODI summer. BBL is terrible. Over it.
Women’s T20 World Cup to bolster pedestrian international summer
BBL is a massive step down from Internationals. Batsmen are facing bowlers that aren’t good enough for first class cricket. It’s cheap entertainment.
Marcus Stoinis is merely a Big Bash bully
Rather use the lowest form of wit to make a point than be an angry man
Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler abuse cases evidence of a serious problem
Some people don’t get sarcasm and prefer anger to be their default.

Hmm… played Collingwood twice, Port twice, Brisbane twice…that 6 games v the top 3 teams. I don’t care if you don’t like the Crows, just be balanced. Everyone would be ropable if this happened to their team.
Footy Fix: The Crows were stone cold robbed... but they've only got themselves to blame
