[TIGER14]

Lehmann out for 7

I know their spots aren't under too much pressure but a couple of awful shots from Warner and Smith today saw both of them go cheap.

 

[vvvrulz]

Get Boland in there.

Alex Doolan belting the door down with 202 not out. Well played champion

And averaging 27 for the 3yrs prior to it. Put him in...

Whoooooosh!!

Hitting them well in the nets though

 

[Tommy Smith]

Are the selectors brave enough to give Renshaw a crack? They absolutely should. He's only 20 so let him grow into the role like England are doing with Hameed, who's a 19yr talented opener.

The Aussies are begging for some fresh blood so this is the perfect chance to bring in both Handscomb and Renshaw.

And maybe stick with Ferguson at 6.

Renshaw
Warner
Usman
Smith
Handscomb
Ferguson
Nevill
O'Keffe
Starc
Hazelwood
Sayers

 

[TIGER14]

Can't be picking Renshaw.
This is only his 12th FC match.

 

[chigurh]

I'd go:

In: Renshaw, Patterson, Behrendorff

Out: Burns, Voges, Mennie

 

[TIGER14]

Apparently:
Steve Smith (c), David Warner, Matthew Renshaw, Usman Khawaja, Peter Handscomb, Kurtis Patterson, Matthew Wade (wk), Mitchell Starc, Stephen O'Keefe, Josh Hazlewood, Jackson Bird, Nathan Lyon, Chris Tremain.

 

[Mr Spock!]

Ferguson's last 5 innings

0, 3, 1, 4, 4

 

[Tommy Smith]

Scissorhands

I hope he gets picked for the tour of India.

What a comedy show that'll be.

 

[Iafeta]

True, but Pete Nevill looks like he simply cannot bat at this level.

 

[Bazal]

Nevill is the only one who's consistently showed any spine ffs. Not his fault he comes in at 5/f**k all more often than anyone else in the game.

Christ, Wade coming in after a batting collapse is an absolute nightmare....he's nothing but a slogger

 

[JJ]

If Mitch Marsh is who they persevere with at 6 longer terms, then spine or not you need a keeper that can bat... I guess catching might be optional

 

[BestHookerFarrah]

Maybe Wade is the new all rounder and Handscomb will take the gloves.
