These are the 6 best batsmen in the country available right now? how ****en depressing
I would have to disagree that they are the 6 best. There are
Neither should be in the team.

100% agree. Neither should finch, particularly at opener. Head gets a few more, give handscomb a run, bring back renshaw, pick the best 4 or 5 in the shield and give him a game. Recycling failed inconsistent players never ever works. Same as Wallabies
 
Oh how I hate slow scoring. There is a difference between placing a value on your wicket and simply not scoring or turning the strike over.

You typically end up going out having made next to no runs. 2.0 runs per over is ridiculous.

Two an over is fine for a tough stretch.

Burns or Maxwell should change there surname to marsh they might get picked
Can Maxwell control himself in the longer form of the game? Big if. You can build a case for 2-3 changes to our top order for the next test at this rate.
 
Even bhogle said we should of told them to **** off
No love lost between Bhogle and the BCCI. They fired him as a commentator because a Bollywood star thought he was too critical of the Indian side.
"No one told me what the matter (the reason for his sacking) was," he says. "If someone had said 'You're not good enough', that would've been fine. Some big players have been told that. Suppose I was told I violated a broadcasting ethic, even that would have been fine. But nobody could look me in the face and tell me, 'This is the reason'. Eventually, I said if that's what it is, that's what it is. It's been the biggest learning experience of my career. Offers started coming right away.Everyone thinks doors are shut, which is true... (pause)...but windows are open."

We're batting like nervous nellies.

All the talk since sa has had an impact, we looked like a team that has been under constant attack for over 6 months because we are.

The constant criticism would get to good players but with a group of average batsmen who are Also missing their senior batsmen it's no surprise we look timid.

disagree? i didnt say they werent the best, just that if they are, and they probably are, its depressing how crap we actually are

Marsh is a proven hack for a start, Finch and Harris opening? lol its a terrible team
 
Unbelievably poor captaincy from Paine. Even if he didn't think it was out, he should have reviewed it. There was nothing to gain by not reviewing it. But at least he's a good bloke.

Was shocking captaincy

Don't get me wrong, our batting has been shit for a long time, but I can't help but feel like this submissive culture we're implementing has something to do with it. I understand the need for cultural change, but surely there's a middle ground.

Very hard to disagree.

He's proven he can moreso than Aaron 'I'm hitting this ball into the Torrens' Finch
