Wade and Haddin scored their runs considerably quicker than Paine in ODI. Haddin had the same average
Having said that Paine has to be there now, considering what has happened and Carey is still green at international level (Agree with Ant, Finchy maybe should have been ODI captain)
Im banking Smith and Warner to be back in the mix for the WC. With Head, Smith, and if SMarsh is there, we have plenty who can bat through and stabilise an innings, Stoinis does this well too. Not sure why we would need to hang on to Paine for this reason, especially if he is batting at 7 or 8
Worst case scenario for Paine over the next 12 months in ODI is if he cant get going or contribute with the bat at all, and Carey kills it.
Careful Parraboy - agreeing with me around here is like stepping out on a high ledge beside the roof. Even if you're just clearing out leaves from the roof gutters, the crowd below sees you on the ledge. You sure about this?
