Yeah I think its a good idea.....heaps of cricket to go before then....players could get injured lose form
smart
Pattinson is the big query. I recon they will take him to the A tour and then if he gets through that he'll be a late inclusion to the squad.
Dont they have a policy of being able to pick players from outside the squad if they are playing county cricket? Pattinson was extremely good for Nottingham last year.
They will want him to show continuity in some way shape or form. A tour or County cricket either one.
I said this when he got a shock recall last summer.Remember the series is in England where Siddle has a fantastic record. I think they will pick Siddle.
lets hope he stays fit. Handy bat also.

Said it was with an eye to the Ashes.
He should tour IMO.
Horses for courses.
I don't understand why we can't just add 1 more to the ssquad number if it really tight between 2 peopleGiven Starc, Cummins, Hazlewood and Richardson will all be in the World Cup squad, it will give Pattinson and Siddle plenty of chance in the A tour to impress
According to Fox Soorts, Wade is in the A squad
If Siddle is showing County form like 2018, he has to be ahead of Richardson (and Starc, though different styles) in England.If Pattinson is fit, does Siddle go? If we assume we take five fast bowlers, Starc, Cummins and Hazlewood go, Pattinson is a talent, and has Richardson passed Siddle?
Runs early in the county season count for a lot. It's a bowler's game until late June.
Yep plus in England it's not about speed, line and length is everything. The best test we played in the last Ashes series over there was when Siddle played.

Why can't it be like International Cricket Captain, where you select a squad of 18 for away Test series?
You technically will as there are 5-6 playing County cricket
In general, yes. But at Cardiff or The Oval? I don't think it's so cut and dried.
trash can is busy hey... we don't want anyone to shot gun sally...OK, SO THE ASHES SQUAD AINT BEING NAMED UNTIL 6 DAYS BEFORE THE 1ST TEST - WOW !
