Guys like Jamie Siddons and Martin Love must have wished they had been born 20 years later.People dismissing guys averaging 35 for their career like we have players actually doing significantly better... We don't.
We need to look at form over the last 2-3 seasons. Who cares about what a 27 year old averaged when he was 21 or 22. Form over a lesser period means almost nothing.
Selectors also need to earn their money and judge whose game will translate to test level. To my eye Marcus Harris will never do so - just my opinion.
Selecting players for the test isn't simple atm. It's unfair to slam the selectors too much. Would've loved their job around 2000. I couldn't think of a more thankless job in cricket these days...
