Shame Kurtis Patterson has had an injured and missed Shield games
Shame Kurtis Patterson has had an injured and missed Shield games
would he have been picked though ?
they seem to still be picking players on form from a couple of years ago
only Smith and Labs deserve to be there and I would have thought this is the time to bring in some in form newbies rather than old and failed players who have already been dropped and most more than once
Wade will also fail this summer, he's already showed us how terrible he is.
.
2 ashes tons in the UK, form Shield batsman last year(or top 2 easily), scoring good runs this year
other than Smith (and possibly Marnus) who has done better in red ball cricket last 12 months?
Since he gave up the gloves (and had a bub) he has been more than a decent batsman

you seem to have omitted his previous 3 years
I guess Burns will have one game to get his test career on track at the Gabba, if he fails then Bancroft will probably open in Adelaide.
Wouldn't surprise me if we end the summer with Harris and Warner as the opening combo again. I do hope Burns can get something going if given the chance.
You prefer the first option?
Yes - only newbies with a bit of form are Pucovski and Maddison - both not available. Patterson is the other newbie - but again not available. A couple of other newbies have a got a few runs but have played only 2 or 3 shield games everWho's an in form newbie?
Burns and Head have been very good for us at times recently...Head was our best performed bat in the ban year and Burns averages 40 in Tests despite apparently being hated by the selectors and treated like shit his whole career. I hate Wade and he's a shit cricketer but he scored in England. Warner is a boss at home.
The only real head scratcher is Bancroft.
Fmd... Bancroft?????
Wtf!!!!!
I'd pick Tom Cooper over him.
At least he can ton up on a road.
