I think Tremain should be in front of both of those, bowls a fuller length and can swing the ball

Starc will play vs the Sri Lankans, their best batsman is the left handed opener and Starc had him 5 times out of 6 innings for under doubles figure every time in the last series that the Sri Lankans won...
Yes. Starc will go to England too.

Yes, Tremain is definitely right up there - if the team was selected on merit >
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - DJC - 01-11-2019
The selectors are getting just a tad antsy about folk questioning their decision making.
JL got quite upset with a reporter questioning feedback allegedly provided to Maxwell. Meanwhile, Wade and the Tasmanian cricket body have called them out over the statement that Wade would have to bat higher in the Tasmanian order before being considered for Test selection. Bryce McGain reckons that’s code for “we don’t think you’re good enough.”
The premier batsman in the Shield can’t get a game on his home ground :
No wonder we are rubbish ????
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 01-11-2019
Other than BS and straight out obsfucation the messaging regarding Maxwell is bizarre.

Desperately unfair for him. For mine, the greedy swine states have let CA focus on cash only for ages. Chook army is back in the barracks now. We've been saved by certain guys over the years pulling us out the mire when we should never been in there in the first place. And that's happened even in our 90s/00/teens pomp. Remember, we failed in the UK and India repeatedly. A failure in itself orchestrated by the hierarchy. Cash not results. But it's only Tests, no money, who cares?

Entire failure has scared CA. It's doing stuff it never has done before. But it has driven the game into the ground for cash. And the young talent progression focus at all costs has been proven shallow thinking; wonder why ... don't tell me there needs to be proof of durability proven over time and centuries...
Still, it's the states' fault.

on Shield numbers, Shaun Marsh deserved a gong (against India) but his repeated soft dismissals are a blight on his career.

His younger brother should never have been picked...that was a mega blunder, arguably costing us the series.
Picking Handscomb again was also folly (as was playing the young L kid at 3).

(These) Selectors really have NFI I'm afraid.
All we need is a bloke who can bowl seam up & hit line & length...works for Broad every time ....I like the look of a Jhye Richardson type. Quick enough & nice high arm action that not much can go wrong with. Hopefully Hazelwood learned his lesson from his last ashes tour where he became too focused on swinging the he new ball & forgot about line & length.
Starc can't bowl line & length...which is why he's not a good option for England.

Hazlewood needs to get closer to the stumps when releasing the ball.
He bowls far too straight, so he’s easy to leave when bowling from wide of the stumps.
If you look at McGrath, his last stride took him in very close to the stumps.
Batsmen always had to play as he bowled stump to stump.
Then his small amount of movement became very effective
