Carey should be the ODI keeper,  Paine has enough issues to deal with.

Paine and Stoinis stank with the bat.

I don't hold a heap of faith in the short forms of the game, Test cricket is where you make your reputation, but this whitewash against the Poms was very poor.

Just shows how brittle our undercarriage is when Smith isn't playing even though I reckon he has a woeful technique.

I've always taken the opinion that to keep and captain you need to be extraordinary, you have to have excess talent that you can burn because you game will go south under the dual role.

It exposes the damage the NSW cartel does and continues to do to Australian cricket!

Who really gives a f... about an out of (our) season ODI series over there....

Bottom line is we had likely 8 out of our regular best 11 not out there... we know that, the Poms know that.....

Too many of the bowlers we played are either inexperienced and/or not up to the top level.

There is no out of season period for the professional cricketers.

They play pretty much 12 months of the year at home or somewhere else, much of it short form.

We're so lucky in this country to have Langer picking the test side,  he is so insightful, so wise.... Wouldn't pick Maxwell as he is an "unreliable" player,  yet continues to pick the spud brothers,  who have both stunk with the bat,  shelled a vital catch and the so called all rounder bowled a mere handful of innocuous overs. Chuck in two debutants who lasted 11 balls for zero runs.

Well done Langer,  you've really inspired us with your selections......NOT!

While expectations of the team have to be low, to be bowled out for 60 (0/142, all out 202) is pretty ordinary...
