Quiney will want to keep scoring runs. Get the feeling at least one of Warner and Cowan won't last the summer.
I didn't think CA were even aware that Quiney existed! They kept on saying last season that "no-one was making any runs", or "banging down the door" or whatever, despite the fact Quiney was making runs like they were going out of style (in all 3 forms of the game no less, something you'd think they would have been thrilled with)!

Seriously how is Khawaja not in the squad, Steve Smith again, give me strength.
First thing that comes to mind is the fact that Usman carried on and performed like a baby after he got dropped last season, and hasn't made up the ground he lost last season - and he lost a lot - so far this season, while Smith quietly composed a pretty good season (average of 40 odd), great in the context of NSW's season, and has had a pretty solid start to this season. He probably would have been one of the first names down just because he's an incumbent member of Australia A whose form hasn't dropped off the cliff after being selected for Aus A like many of them (which I guess throws the spotlight over to Burns who has also managed to continue performing)

nice of smith to put in a semi-decent performance so as to protect me. what a champion.
