Lot of love for Davey, and we love our Marsh bros too. Not sure how Harris got another go either...or Renshaw.

The Marsh selection is bewildering.  Been injured and isn't a test players A-hole.  Hazelwood could consider himself lucky too, but at least he's a non quantity at the standard.

Neser is bloody unlucky as well.

Marsh is backup for Green I presume who will probably injure himself at the IPL carrying that suitcase of money onto the plane...

If we play a test series based on 4 days of ODI how can our squad not have Maxwell?

They have low confidence in the playing conditions, that can't be sure if it is going to be Bazball or a Test grind, so they gone 50/50.

But even so, if you accept they have gone 50/50, it doesn't explain some of the choices that make up the mix!
