Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ??

[JonHenry]

I'm concerned that the relative progress made on this tour is papering over the usual big cracks in the middle (& now top) order batting lineup.  Let's be quite clear about his.  The bowlers (& Smith) have kept this series alive......there are still huge questions over 4, 5, & 6....and yes the lower order has not contributed anywhere near enough.  It's been 5 out all out far too many times.

Can only hope that back on Aussie pitches for the Ashes will see an improvement.....but still don't like Marsh & Maxwell getting first dibs on an Ashes series....

Wow, you are not impressed with Maxwells batting?
I think he looks far more composed than anyone bar Smith.
He is a class above the others and makes Warner look foolish.
I also think Handscombe, for his first tour has done pretty well.
