Warner!!! :(
Let's hope it's just a small injury/bruising or something. He's too important!

I reckon drop Smarsh for Faulkner, bring in Cowan for Warner :(, Harris back in for Starc, and literally any other person in Australia other than Maxwell for Watson.

I'm willing to pad up if it means he's out of the side

I'll even do it for free

Can't bat Faulkner in the Top 6. Never made a FC ton.

No middle order batsman has really been knocking down the door so far. Maybe Burns and Ferguson are closest, but the selectors love Smarsh too much and won't drop him until he has multiple failures. The bloke clearly has all the shots, but like Watson doesn't value his wicket.

Marsh doesn't have the mental application required to succeed at this level.
yup:$

Am I the only one who'd love to see these Indians just piss off home once and for all?

Blaming the practice wickets for injury, not happy with the food, won't use DRS.

This is after previous "issues" here, such as Singh/Symonds in 2008 when they threatened to leave if he was suspended for what was clearly a racial taunt (I never did understand why one dark skinned man would call another one a monkey, but that's another matter entirely).

These clowns have had far too much clout for far too long.

Oh - and if Ishant doesn't have one of the world's most beltable heads, I'll go he.

It provides a bit of theatre and as long as we win it's actually better when they're flogs.

They're campaigners, but they provide decent competition (and dollars). With only really half a dozen competitive test sides out there, we can't be too picky on who we play.

That said, Kohli has some genuine mongrel that you can't help but admire, and Dravid was probably the classiest cricketer of his generation (not as a player, just as a presence in the game).

True but I wish he wouldn't hang around so long when he gets out. Got bowled today and just stood at the crease for about 10 seconds as if to say "I'm out? Really?" Pretty dumb stuff, you're out so start walking son!
