Hahahahahahahaha after all the talk Johnson and Siddle both stay because Harris broke down, again. So again the selectors were saved from making a hard call. Typical. Useless the lot of them.

clarke loses another toss and SAF will bat, cant be too much of a seamer if smith has elected to don the pads first

Good, I couldn't handle another batting collapse today.

kwhaja, cummins, lynn al future aussie players.. (altho kwhaja already has)

JOHNOdamus6... Terrible spelling, but once Chris Lynn gets in, a terrific call! Reading the T20 thread from last season, a few of us made this call, but this was the first time I read it!

If only Ryan Harris was not a cripple
He has a very good Test career so far, but ...

The Australian summer coming up
Who will get injured first
Shaun Marsh
Ryan Harris
?
These guys make Shane Watson look like an ironman

Watto has been an iron man over the last couple of years...

Funny thought here:
When he first debuted (ODI), the blonde tipped, muscular quick bowling all rounder Shane Watson was touted as the face of a refreshed Australian cricket team... He then had a horrendous run of injuries, and after two solid years at a peak of performance, there is thoughts of him sliding down the order, perharps so we can heap more bowling on him to an early retirement.
In the down time of a Watson injury, another Queenslander, full with tattoo, Mitch Johnson, took the world by storm with his pace and aggression coming as a left arm quick. His ownership of a strong South African team, which included a century, cemented his status as the future leader of the Australian attack. Now that there is no Clark or Lee, Johnson has that responsibility, and he is spudding up almost every Test.
Read the T20 Big Bash thread from last year, and most waxed lyrical about this man Cummins (although then most ballsed up and called him Cummings), even yours truly said he would be a fixture for the next fifteen years... What will happen of this lad? A starburst? A big bag on debut to justify his existence, and then abject failure? Or will it be third time lucky, and a generational change leader emerge?
