Joe Mennie - NTBPA

good 1st class cricketer hasn't the toys to cut it at the Test level.

Pretty much Siddle, isn't he?

Sayers......fairly hard done by.

Nah, Siddle is quicker (not by much) and bowls better areas.

Bird would've been a better option if they weren't going to pick Siddle.

Agree I haven't seen much of him before but I can't believe his taken a lot of wickets at shield level

Will never be a test cricketer and probably shows the lack of batting depth

All of a sudden, noticeable movement off the deck from Hazlewood and Mennie since lunch. Sticky wicket with the covers down over lunch?

Old bastards getting a gig with the test side. Revolving door selections. Ineffective spinners. Bowlers selected on batting ability rather than wicket taking ability. We are England 2007.

We will last the day?

Good question.

A lot of tough criticism towards Mennie not being up to scratch.. fair enough too.. but just wondering does anyone else think Nathan Lyon is under the pump at the moment as well?

He hasn't been overly effective of late, and his economy rates seem to be increasing..

And it begins 1/0

Someone burnt the duck

That god for the rain

Suddenly Shaun Marsh appears a great option at the top of the order.

ABC Radio been saying these batting collapses been going on for 3 years - on over 20 occasions in 43 tests they've lost 4 or more wickets in clumps..
