Australian and English cricket share one thing in common and thats the mates club have a large bearing on selection.
Two players I would focus on are Warner and Bairstow, both have been ordinary, both should be dropped but the mates club and weak coaches have kept them in the team because they are popular in the dressing room and we have seen what happens to a coach who makes waves with the playing group ie Langar, even impeccable results couldnt save him when he got offside with a few players because he wanted to run a tighter ship and demand excellence in training.
We all know Warner is rat crape in England and is Broads bunny but its not about Warner anymore its more about the embarrassing excuses trotted out by McDonald and management why he is still being picked and Bairstow is the same.
Everyone knows Foakes is the best keeper in England by a long way and probably the world and Bairstow wouldnt even be in the top 3 keepers in England, Not only has he not performed with gloves or bat he has made a goose of himself on the field but survives on his mateship with senior players in the dressing room. I expect this type of rubbish from England and its corrupt county system which has been under fire for its private school tie come first mentality and racist attitudes but not Australia and players picking and choosing when they will leave team is laughable along with their bleating spouses making their thoughts known in the media...see Candice Warner.
