Good post. I suspect everyone wants the selectors to just leave him alone to get a proper run in first class cricket for at least a year. Let him go to Surrey too and leave him with them for the entire English summer. Will do him the world of good.
Right now he's batting at 4 for WA and has 300 odd runs in 5 Shield matches. I just want to see him play a full Shield season, score 500+ runs and contribute with the ball without breaking down injured.
For all the 'he's a Marsh' hyperbole it's ridiculous that we're considering playing him in a test as an all rounder when he's bowled 22 overs all season. Didn't bowl in the JLT Cup at all and only just started bowling in the Shield.
