I'm a big fan of Inverarity and whoever else is the current selection panel. Seem to be getting the balance right now.
I for one would have dropped Ponting before India, but he has shown how valuable he still is to this side. His slip fielding has been important too. Hussey has shown he has some time left. Both are gun fields-men. No one in shield is really demanding their place anyway.
Johnson's injury has been a massive help though. We now have four bowlers capable of maintaining pressure, which is going a long way to shutting India down.
Haddin is probably the one problem. I could handle him having a poor series with the bat, but his keeping has been very poor in this series. Let him play Adelaide, then tell him to retire. It's the right time to do this, while Ponting and Hussey are still around. Get Wade in, and let him settle before the Ashes.
