Must have been informed already he's out for Hobart
He’ll be going to Pakistan as first choice but they’ll take Inglis a cover.
Australia don’t drop ‘keepers, they give them a good go they are generally only replaced through injury, Barnett 1938 (shouldn’t have been picked over Tallon in the first place arguably), McLean 1978-79 and Dyer 1988 excepted.
@WHUFC take BEX pal, where have I said ALex would be 100% happy with his keeping and I said after Brisbane don’t judge a keeper on catches you judge him on mistakes made. Yes he made some but no more or less than others have made after four tests. He knows what he has to do. His fundamentals are spot on and the fact he is now going for the half chances is a step up from Adelaide.
His batting who knows what instructions he’s been given. An argument could be that he’s putting team before self, I don’t know. That will also improve as he gets used to Test cricket.
Bottom line he’s still odds on to be keeping in the first test in India in Sept and most likely the 1st Test against the West Indies in Nov this year.
