Anyone have an explanation for how Marcus Harris made the Test squad for the Pakistan tour?

A dearth of openers.

Pucovski isn’t ready to take that spot yet and I’m guessing they don’t want to debut someone on the subcontinent. Uzi will get first crack anyway?

More importantly why wasn't Jhye picked?

He's being rested, was announced a few weeks back

Bloody Langer picking his West Aussie favourites again probably.

Lack of openers and made 76 in his last innings.

I saw a comment somewhere that if he was any more rested he would be a Tibetan monk. Pretty funny.

For some reason I briefly thought Melbourne was the fourth test.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Would rather play with 10 than select Harris ever again.

 

[THE A5]

My problem with Harris is that he is 30 and it's not as if we are giving a 25 year old kid a chance to grow into the role. Heck Matt Renshaw at 21 wasn't given this amount of opportunities and he had a few big scores under his belt.

Personally would have gone and backed Hunt or street in and would have given them the chance to grow into that role.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Gee, I'd even have gone Renshaw over Harris. Bloke should be opening long term, not middle order.

Either way, he can cover both bases.

 

[DanWCE]

I'd have put Langer in to open before Harris

I'd rather bring Langer back to open than play Harris

Haha jinx

 

[Dazzler9]

Langer should come out of retirement and open instead of Harris.

 

[squashface]

I think Langer should play cricket and Harris should not

 

[Ochre]

I wish they'd sacked Harris as coach instead of Langer.

 

[DanWCE]

Wouldn't mind Langer coming in for Parto

 

[Chris_6678]

Gee Langer has some skills

 

[FKASC]

How much Langer can Harris be debated

How about we give this overused, unfunny joke a rest?
Its right up there with posting Gee on anything to do with Venables and putting in Jack Watts as a poll option as embarrassing crap just clogging up threads.

 

[WCE_phil]

TBH there's probably quite a few retired Australian openers who could come out of retirement and play better than our second choice opener at the moment.
