A groundswell of support for Jhye Richardson – spurred earlier in the week by Shane Warne – prompted another former Australian bowler to remind everyone of Mitchell Starc’s value to the side. Who would you pick?
Starcs our best weapon and matchwinner. I'de play him in Brisbane. Richardson will get plenty of action in this series probably on less suitable wickets than the Gabba. We're gonna need the four of them firing all series.
The debate is on starcs average at Gabba besides last year's latent season test is excellent . Is he tapering off . He's outstanding at Adelaide with pink ball in evening . The key and I've said it a few years running on here is to change the bowling line up at mcg and scg where results and innings waiver recently with the same quartet .England got.on top of us at mcg first innings last tour as well. We need changes to two bowlers at mcg and scg . They missed a beat with Pattinson and his low average at mcg last year which I was laboring on about before that test started off the back of the two man bowling route at Adelaide against India . The selectors never learn about transition off pink ball back to red at mcg and that the quartet we've stuck too isn't as effective there

Pattinson retired from international cricket

Starc should be a lock for the pink ball test, Richardson in at the Gabba.

If Mitch has a bad first test, pressure will be on to dump him with options like Richardson and Pattinson around
