Test Australian squad for The Subcontinent

You are probably my right, but Marsh will be picked as a back up for Green.

They had him back into the squad recently and like the idea if a 5th bowler.

He's no chance to make the 11 unless Green is injured though.

What form are we picking him off and don't use slog cricket, yay he can whack a six...pity bowlers aren't Josh Lalor types in test cricket and he gets out every time basically the same way. Of all the bad things England did gifting a ton to Marsh is the pinnacle!
 
Well Warner is getting picked, there is no doubt in that and I think they will give Khawaja more than one test as opener now they've selected him.

Street is no doubt a chance to take one of those spots as a back up, especially if they decide to give Pukovski more time.

Have a feeling they pick Renshaw who as in the extended Ashes squad. With him or Street for me. Can't we get rid of Harris please.
 
T20 is 9/10 months away,lets judge both players performances in the shield remaining games (if they play),not on past performances in test cricket.

Not sure how many Shield games both have bare in mind after the BBL there's the ODI's and both are playing in those

Dude, I'm not arguing whether he should be picked, I'm arguing he will.

Unfortunately for him being a white ball cricketer though he's not going to get a lot of opportunities to play Shield cricket.

You can whinge all you want about it but its going to happen.

Who said both are playing remembering NZ are bringing across a B squad.Lets play them in shield and judge them on how they go before we select the Pakistan squad.Gut feeling ACB and the TV will be saying we need Maxi for TV ratings and crowd numbers.

Well if it is there's a good reason I won't be disappointed that Langer is gone. Slog cricket in't test cricket

I'd honestly be shocked in we don't play Maxwell and Marsh. Give Smith and Lab a rest at least
 
Lab will not be selected for the upcoming games against NZ.Why pick your best side against a NZ B grade side,blood a few younger players.

Questionable whether Lab should be in our top ODI side anyway personally it's one of Smith/Lab not both.
 
Usually Warner gets inked into overseas tours on the back of a dominant home Test season on our roads. He was not great v India and scratchy v the Poms enjoying some slices of luck. He will be missing the roads he used to thrive on.

His record overseas is very ordinary and has been for a long period.

Unfortunately I think he will go but Bailey and Dodders will certainly question his position in the squad.

I see no basis for the selection of white ball specialists like Maxwell, Agar and M Marsh.

The basis being that Marsh was recently called into the squad and they will want a back up for Green.

I highly doubt the selectors will even consider leaving Warner out to be honest, despite his record out of Australia.

Would rather Neser to be honest. Better bowler and will fight hard with the bat. Everyone knows Marsh is an utter dud at Test level.

I am pretty sure Warner is not an auto selection.

Time will tell.

I'd bet my house on Warner being there.

Nesser doesn't make sense as we'd want a back up for Green and he's not a top 6 bat at any level.

I'm no Marsh fan but knowing they love an all rounder and they'll want a back up for Green I don't see him not being in the squad, especially knowing he's already in there.

What's a realistic expectation for our 10 tests in the Sub continent in 2022 ?

Hard to judge since they haven't played in the subcontinent for a long time. I just want to see improvement from the first test until the last. Learn from any possible mistakes.
