It's barely relevant.
I'm happy we scored 481 against the aussies
In all seriousness the game is irrelevant though as the aussies have there second string bowling line up. The only thing it does show is bowling depth is not quite yet there. I'm amazed Nathan Lyon can't get a gig, he's by far your best spinner. Also why is Khawaja not in this one day side? He's been very good at state level for years in one dayers, yet Short has one good T20 tournament and is in.
I know that I harp on about it but all Khawaka has to do is move to WA. The bias to their players has been bad for years with Langer an unofficial selector.
Now that he is officially in charge the bias will get worse.
I'm sure the proponents of the NSW bias will be pleased to hear that.
FWIW knowing Lang (not well) and seeing how he operates on a values and performance development level I'll take his opinion on selections over anyone on here.
Mind you Khawaja for Head has merit, IMO
