Even though Australia are in a winning position now you couldn't be that happy if you forked out good money to go along today to watch this live.

Two average batsmen grinding out runs slowly against an average bowling attack, you'd see more entertaining cricket at a Sheffield Shield game.
I disagree. They might see the first Test century by an Australian this Summer.
 
Worrell is a conditions based selection. I’d have played Sayers but he’s injured. Need guys that genuinely swing the ball not less. Starc has been rubbish for a while and Hazelwood is just coming back from injury.

The only bowlers who should be locked in are Lyon and Cummins
Do you know what cricket is? Lol

I'm currently enjoying it. Good test match batting from 2 under pressure batsman. You'd have to be pretty cynical to say it's not entertaining. Would be happier if the sun pissed off though

No way. This batting side needs to learn how to bat for time. If they can then we get a crushing win and finally learn something from this summer.
 
Cummins and Lyon pick themselves. I'd have Richardson in based on his bowling in the first innings. Starc has been well below his best, but his best is bloody good. Hazlewood has also been really disappointing this Summer, IMO.

From the batters, I'd probably drop Khawaja for Smith when he comes back. In a season where we needed him to step up and be the senior guy, playing in home conditions where he'd previously been pretty reliable - he's been poor. Some bad dismissals and just seems clueless against spin. That dismissal yesterday was bad - that ball was not remotely there to cut. Head would be our leading run scorer for the season just about, Harris looks worth persisting with, Labuschagne I'm coming around to.

Please dont pretend you were referring to everywhere else.

Its pretty obvious you think he's shit.

In a ODI...in Australia. Yeah terrible selection there. In England, in a test where line and length bit of seam or swing each way is the receipe- no issues. In fact I’d be shocked if he’s not in the squad in some way shape or form.
