I actually like the predicted squad, Harris with an actual partner in Burns can only help.

Patto and Will are great inclusions against a weak team, in all honesty, Cummins and Starc should obliterate the top order with Rich and Goat cleaning up the rest.

Sri Lanka out for 200 or thereabouts Aussies to scores 450 plus.

Can’t believe they named Head as VC, what’s the need for two VC’s anyway?!

Head should be in thin ice with Smith returning soon, at least Cummins is a lock for the team.

When the f**k do the selectors get sacked. Naming Head as vice-captain when the merkin has nowhere near cemented his place in the team is beyond idiotic

It isn't like there aren't better options available. Lyon or Khawaja would be much better to "support and help drive the team’s goals and objectives" without having to worry about if their performances are good enough to even be in the team. The only goals and objectives of Langer and Hohns is to destroy Australian cricket

Dumb merkins

I wouldn't worry too much about Head, after all MMarsh was also our VC and he's gone.

Bit of a slap in the face for Oozie tho.

I just want batsmen who want to be in the test team,and who will show some f##king balls when things get tough out in the middle.Head and Usman need to stand up,they have been as reliable as the Marsh brothers lately.

So we're looking at:

Burns
Harris
Khawaja
Head
Patterson
f**koffski

Yikes

I think Lasagne will play instead of f**koffski. Didn't he get a 50 in the tour match?

Other option will be Oozie opening, Lasagne at 3 and f**koffski at 6

and when Steve Smith comes back, on the field anyway, would most likely be Paines unofficial vice captain

Sri Lanka have never beaten us in Australia - will that change this series?

They beat us 3 zip in 2016 in Sri Lanka.

I think we'll win because they're struggling themselves atm but who knows?
