I never understand this desire amongst so many supporters to bring down their own players.
Burns - 100 and over 40 average despite being in and out more times than John Farnham farewell tours - nah fails away from home, dodgy technique, Renshaw/Harris/Bancroft/carbon rod all better (let’s just forget his work in NZ and Joberg).
Khawaja - The most elegant bat Australia has and one of three world class players who finally gets the monkey off his back with a ton - nah should have failed so he could be dropped (let’s forget the important innings he has played over his career and said elegance).
Labowlingshayne - rubbish, is a better bowler than batter, nowhere near ready - has a noice technique, needs a run to show what’s he’s got (so forget performance, he should do well in the Ashes)
Head - (and I’m guilty here too) a knack for getting out after starts, very promising but not there yet - play Wade or Maxwell instead (forget the fact that after playing Pakistan in the UAE, India and SL now averages 50 going into an Ashes series)
Starc - blows tails away, picks up wickets even out of form - nah bowls pies, only picks up ‘junk time’ wickets, will be no good in England (forget that England’s strength is actually their lower order batting and the fact Starc has the ability to take wickets in clumps)
Seems supporters don’t like to see their team, you know, do well.
