His approach/mentality towards batting is suited to T20. He isn't used to coming in at 6/100 with 20 overs left and having to stay in.

Definitely could use a specialist spinner on this pitch.

Amla is definitely a better player than Duminy.

I find it weird that they haven't at least tried Boyce in this series.
Maybe in place of one of the pace bowlers. Maxwell with our only wicket and going at 3.5 an over, got to be happy with that. Worth giving Smith a bowl?

Yeah especially in this game. You would think they'd experiment in a dead rubber (they'd rather experiment when the series is on the line I suppose).

Or even stick with Doherty for a few games. He's a decent enough ODI spinner.

I can understand them resting him from this game. But games that are still on the line should have their best side played surely. Usually you try to win the series as quick as possible and rest your players for the games that mean nothing.

We're playing 3 bowlers... what a disgrace. Aussie selectors continuously trying to find allrounders, what is wrong with players who can do one thing excellently. Faulkner, Maxwell, NCN... it makes us look so bad.

Amla is arguably the best ODI batsman in the world. Duminy is good though. Very underrated.

Rotating at the moment so we can figure out who we should pick for the World Cup. Pretty obvious and a great use of common sense by CA I'd have thought.

Either Amla or ABD.. they are both ridiculous. They also play NORMAL cricket shots. You don't have to play stupid shots like Maxwell and Smith to get runs.

The test series is more important than 3 meaningless ODI's

Smithy pies are on lol, give Finchy a bowl while we are at it
Use state cricket for experimenting
At international level you simply play your best team and do everything you can to win.
Success breeds success, and keeping the same team together creates stability and confidence

We can't use State cricket right now because of the silly way the Ryobi is now structured. The World Cup is the most important thing right now.

I thought we would do this easily today with the saffers resting their best batsmen and two best bowlers
