Australia v England ODI series June/July 2012

[Jim05]

Worst series result in 40 years, absolute disgrace

[Tubby]

Why did we go there just to play 5 one dayers in the first place, to me it seemed like a waist of time, we now have a hand full of injured players.

Maybe this will be a wake-up call for the selectors?

The only shining light from the series was Clint McKay.
After his performance, i'd ask the question; Would you consider him for the Ashes Squad in a years time?

Doherty, Johnson, Smith aren't up to standard.
Lee needs to be moved on.

Our batting is a worry.
I'd like to see for the time-being, Wade & Warner opening with Watson at 3.

With Warner, Hussey and Clarke being able to offer some part-time spinning options and Doherty doing nothing.. why not look at someone like McDonald? Slot him in at 8. His batting has improved in the past couple of years and he has probably the best economy rate in state cricket.
He may not be suited to Australian conditions as much, but i think over in England he could do a job.

Still got the man-crush? Shall we recall Marcus North aswell?
