One day squad..No Maxwell????

I'm 100% in agreement.

I'm not claiming Starc wouldn't be effective when conditions suit, but conditions have to suit him and in most countries 8 out of 10 games don't suit him. For me the ODI Coutler-Niles and Stoinis types need more exposure and it should come at the expense of players like Smith, Marsh and Starc.

I read an article today in which Smith allegedly questioned England's tactics stating they may not hold up. But he's hardly in a position of strength to make such a sweeping statement. I suspect he's been coached to make a statement that is nothing more than deflection!

Starc's never had an ODI issue in any country hence his outstanding average, economy and strike rate. As for Tests, his best Series comfortably was the last Sri Lankan Tour.
