Daydreaming this afternoon and I came up with a brilliant idea

Cricket Australia find half a dozen spinners who aren't going to play Test Cricket but decent enough....pay them to be net bowlers ,develop illegal actions who cares its only the nets.

Too many traditional spinning actions in Australian cricket

Safely say this isn't the worst call you've ever made.

I must have been dreaming about our batting performances against Pakistan

Selector Tony Dodemaide says Australia’s settled T20 top order has performed well, but veteran Steve Smith remains in contention as a replacement if needed.

WTF :shock: :shock:
