Well, like him or loathe him, Chappell is the National Talent Manager so if you need someone to fill in as a selector for a little while, he is the obvious choice. As is Trevor Hohns, already on the selection panel, to step up as chairman.

Neither of these are permanent positions, and CA really need to take their time to get the choice of new selector right. Rushing it is a bad idea.

Well its arguable that him being the National Talent Manager is why cricket is ****ed at this point in time. He did nothing as a coach for the Redbacks, he was ran out of India after 2 years and then saw the Test team here underachieve under his watch before getting the ass.

Sutherland certainly should make sure he hires the right people, as it'll be him walking down the road next if he gets it wrong imo.

On another note, Handscomb a lock?

This is worth a read gents....

Yep another reason Greg Chappell should have nothing to do with Australian cricket. The bloke has been cancer everywhere he has gone. Champion player- shit anything else to do with the game.

The Test Team for Next Match but CA won't do it

Too many Vics, will be Henriques, Nevill & O'Keefe instead of White, Wade & Agar(injured?). It's why people have lost interest

Easy to lose interest when your players from your state side are putting up good numbers; but when an opportunity arises a chap from NSW will be the player given his chance.

Agar

Young keen and talented side. Dean has a more all round game compared to Burns, while Renshaw is the most in form played at first class level. Handscomb and Patterson have been super consistent over the last two years. Can play big strokes but can also form partnerships, both solid in the field too.

Bancroft as keeper, better on the gloves than Wade better as a batsman than Neville.

How long until Pattinson and Cummins are ready for test cricket again?

 

[KiwiRoo]

2nd concussion this season.

That and his dismissal is really starting to look like a bloke who isn't picking the ball up as quick as he used to

The problem though is which of Hazelwood or Starc goes out to accommodate both Pattinson and Cummins? Or do we go back to the days of playing 4 seamers with Smith bowling a few more leggies than he usually does?

Reckon he was out there longer than most of them though.

I don't think we'll ever see the both of them together in the test side both have been very injury prone across their careers.

 

[Firestarter]

Maybe if he moved interstate...

 

[Twinkletoes]

Handscombe N.O. 193 and counting.

Has to be picked now. If they go with anyone else and they fail, the shit storm will be immense.

Absolutely. Performed under the pressure of his name being in the spotlight, and did so with aplomb. He's IN!

They're both still reasonably young so there's still a chance.

It's just so unfortunate that they've both had those significant injury issues. Personally I rated both a lot higher than Starc and Hazelwood, particularly Cummins who looked like was going to be truly special after that debut in South Africa.

 

[archereleven]

Ferguson has failed, out for 4

That debut was 5 years ago believe it or not...

Starc provides a difference being a southpaw. Ideally our lineup would be Pattinson, Starc, Hazelwood and spinner

Hoping Handscombe opens the shoulders now he's topped 200 and belts the hell out of the NSW (pseudo Aussie First XI) bowlers.
