That's right, how dare we expect the GOAT to dismiss above average batsmen? What an outrageous expectation!

You just keep setting the bar low for him, mav. Your superior cricket knowledge is on display for all to see.

Of his 5 wickets last innings, how many were above aveage batsmen?

In the end the aussies batting has let us down all series. Just haven't been able to get any consistency. The bowlers have done their jobs.

Smith is obviously the exception, he is a freak.
Remshaw started well but faded.
Warner disappointing. Shown that if isn't able to score quickly he didn't haven't the temperament to battle it out.
Hanscomb, one 70, looked good when he batted and was consistent but couldnt get past 25.
Marsh had 2 good innings over 50 but little else.
Mitch Marsh was a waste of time.
Maxwell should have played from the 1st Test

Your fault. If you don't move from the TV we won't lose a wicket.
Na, my fault. Come home sit down at start of our innings, bang 3 for. Wifey comes home and we go for our walk, come back still 3 for. Sit down, bang we're 5 for.
I'm now cooking dinner, by myself, away from the tv!!

Can't understand why Khawaja has not been given a chance. i know he struggled on the previous tour, but has a test batting average of over 47. Surely should have been given at least 1 test.
Who would you have dropped? And before you say Marsh, he topped scored a couple of times so would have been hard to drop him.

Probably because the batsman that took his place made half centuries in the last 2 Tests, the other option was he could have come into the side for Mitch Marsh instead of Maxwell.
