Burns the easy out to accomodate Smith, Warner dependent on the openers form
I think you might be reading the selectors right, but it shows their BS thinking.
Unless we have a genuine all-rounder, we need six genuine batsmen, one of whom can bowl 6 overs a day, like Head or Maruns can, not force Marnus to be an all-rounder and not be disposable based on his bowling.
I don't like Head-Pucovski. Head is a number 6, especially at the moment, and they are trying to force Pucovski. We need Head at 6 and a batsmen with a better technique and patience at 5 and at that moment that is Marnus or Burns.
Is Head on thin ice? His dismissals in Adelaide weren't great but things that happen, but his last five were very ordinary at best and brings into question how he genuinely, gut-bustingly he "wants"it.
