We've got about five guys in the seven that need to be dropped, or are on the precipice (Warner, Bancroft, Khawaja, Wade, Paine).
Warner and Bancroft for me have to go next test because we have ready made replacements waiting. If horses for courses is applied to the bowlers due to the conditions, why can't it be applied to the batsmen?
Bring Warner in when we're back on our own flat tracks where he can bully everyone. Ditto Khawaja. Bancroft needs his card marked, he's not good enough in any situation.
If Alex Carey works overtime on his keeping I reckon he will be guaranteed to take over Paine once Smith's ban expires. If not, Scissorhands may as well keep because Paine sure as hell isn't much better than him at that right now.
Yes, Harris and Khawaja
Yeah, realistically Warner isn't going to be dropped.
Probably not Wade yet either give his century in the first test. That buys people not named Burns or Patterson a few extra games.
Bancroft gone though, can he at least teach the rest how to catch? That would help.
Usually don’t have to think about it...Neither of these guys are batsman so my post is actually irrelevant when you think about
What makes the decision tougher is the fact neither of them are bald.Can't drop Siddle for Pattinson,Siddle was the only one who hung around with Smith in the 1st test when he scored 44,we wouldn't be up 1-0 right now without Siddle
Pattinson's 47no in the 2nd innings doesn't count,we were on top by then,he scored a duck in the 1st innings when the pressure was on

Though Siddle has a bit less up top. Patto it is.
Smith ruled out of the 3rd test
