Rolling World Cup squad thread

who knew spuds could average 40 in ODIs

The selectors

 

[JackOutback]

For all the question marks over our batting, I'm not sure we're winning the World Cup with our bowlers performing the way they are. Just haven't been able to tear through an opponent or even restrain them from making a big score.

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

Thats exactly what I would go for next. With Carey coming in at 5 if there's more than 15 overs left.

Shaun Marsh is out of the WC with a fractured arm, Peter Handscomb has been called up as a replacement.

Interesting replacement,could have been Wade.If he does not play against South Africa I doubt he would play in the finals.

I would of brought Mitch Marsh in for his brother, I would have had Mitch in the original squad. Like for like replacement in Handscomb but he is just a pointless spare, we need another all-rounder considering Stoinis and Maxwell ain't doing much.

Yeah I agree as well...reckon we need the extra allrounder due to stoinis terrible form

Unlucky for S marsh opportunity for Handscomb. I wonder if Maxie will get up...I reckon he can

Part of me thinks that we'd go Mitch Marsh if one of the bowlers got injured. Then I remember Josh Hazlewood isn't in the squad.

The extra all rounder spot we normally go with was replaced by the second spinner this World Cup which always gave the squad a slightly unbalanced look.

Having said that we've used literally everyone and we're top so I guess the selectors have actually done okay.

Hard to see marsh playing for australia again, his test career was all but over and they won't go back to a 36 year old right after a world cup.

 

[JackOutback]

If Shaun Marsh didn’t have bad luck, he’d have no luck at all. Could have potentially played in two World Cup winning squads but will play in none.

They couldn’t bring Mitch in because Shaun was the only recognised back-up batsman. With Maxwell injured as well, we’d be playing short.
