Test squad of 17 announced on Nov 11 (pathetic I know, as another round of shield games 13th-16th).

So only two shield games to impress. The Indian tourists will only have one

I just hope O'keefe isn't dropped from NSW cause of Lyon

he could be a bolter for an ashes test later In the series IMO if he keeps his form up, and our top order keep failing

If it was any other series he would be opening in Brisbane. IMO him and Maddinson (who needs runs) are the most talented bats. Silk values his wicket unlike David Warner for instance!
