At least we can put a line through some of these duds for good now

Some of these duds? Who do mean by some?

Guys like Abbott, Henriques and Agar are classic list cloggers

All over, India get the dead rubber win by 13 runs, Aussies looked good until Maxwell then Agar got out.
Onto the T20 series now which starts Friday.

Was good call this TDK. Thought he bowled really well and few of our guys had no idea. Surprised he did not play the first two games as they went in with only five bowlers which cost them dearly.

Agree with this Jim, those three are waste of time. At least play Green more, and when fit Jai Richardson from WA should play. Give the young guys a go before the World Cups are on.

Thought you'd say Abbott, Henriques will have his spot taken by Stoinis, Marsh or most hopefully Green in the future. Disagree about Agar he's a handy cricket with his role as the second spinner, was the pick of the bowlers today for the Aussies.

The selectors try to be too smart. Shuffling the batting order around because of Warner was stupid. Just bring in Short to open and leave the rest as is

He bowled ok tonight but he is a bit of a nothing cricketer IMO. Might get a half decent game out of him every now and then but that’s about it

Should of played more than just the one match, pretty much all the batsmen he bowled too didn't know which way the ball was turning, even Finch was unsure. A better bowler than Chahal IMO especially against Australia. Luckily for Australia Kuldeep isn't in the Indian T20 squad.

Yep, lose a left handed opener, bring in a left handed opener.

Yep, we have a history with playing these types over the past few years, they see something that we don't? Most come from the West IMO.

Hilton Cartwheel
Ashton Turner
Andrew Tye
NCN to some extent
Billy Stanlake
Chris Tremian
Scott Boland

Just chuck some youth in as fringe players and don't dump them after 3 games. Since 2011 we've had 17 new players play less than 10 games.
