To be fair I think Neser's pies aren't much better. Would prefer Richardson (not fit enough yet maybe?) or Pattinson (again not fot).
If Richardson is fit enough I think it should be hime. But I also don't want him out of the Scorchers lineup ha.
 
Starc was horrible and ****'n Lyon looked dangerous when he gave the ball some air. The back of a length bowling approach all summer. Green barely getting a bowl. labuchagne barely getting a bowl.

The coaching/strategy group around the bowling should get the arse. Every.Single.One of them.

Tim Paine is a popular figure and has made a couple decent contributions but at the end of the day is an average player and not a great leader. Time to get Smith back as captain.
Tough call but probably fair. India looked like they wanted the last two games while we seemed to be going through the motions a bit. That might be an unfair assessment given the pitch but it just didn't seem like there was any aggression from the Aussies. Paine missing routine plays also doesn't help.

Yeah I don’t mind Paine but yeah he made an absolute tit out of him self.

Reminiscent of watching the Eagles last season, always feeling the other team wanted it more.

Had that last round Hawks at Optus feel about it. Rock up and expect the other team to phone it in, and they turn up showing their elite mindset and determination to play for the win, always.

We were average but India were quite brilliant as the series went on, especially calling on 20 players and almost all of them contributing. Somehow their tail strengthened through injury!

is an elite set up.

You get some great options with the ball from Agar but more importantly a much better hitter later down the order than Hardie or richo.

Turner said today he is possible inclusion later in the tournament. I want hardie to come on as he seems exciting young prospect but at 7 his batting is not up to it. Been more serviceable the ball but you could easily play a Paris or Kelly for bowling sake.
