Place your bets

2 silly moves for mine, I'd like to see a lot more of Bartlett and dropping Head is a kick in the teef to one of our best batsmen who is a tad out of form, he needs more time at the crease

drop Feathers ffs

The management of Bartlett, who claimed 4 for 17 in Melbourne, is understood to be part of a plan to be careful with his workloads amid three ODIs in five days after his back injury last year, and without any one-day or Shield cricket this season.

"I was injured at the start of this year and didn't have a chance to play any domestic cricket, which was a frustrating time," he said after his Player-of-the-Match display. "But you can kind of see the light at the end of the tunnel and you've just got to keep trying to work hard because these days don't happen very often in the game of cricket."

Left-arm quick Spencer Johnson will join the squad as cover for the third ODI in Canberra on Tuesday.



explains why Bartlett was dropped

A hot one today just on the bus heading down for a few cold pints at the pub in Surry Hills before we can live the dream and pay $9 to drink out of plastic cup.
