Australia might have a couple changes and Panaser might not play for England.
Sydney is Pink Test for the McGrath Foundation.

Pitch is a green top.

England look likely to make 3 changes with 3 debutants rabble, rabble, rabble

Will Watson and Harris play if not who comes in, I would like to see Dooland and Nathan Coulter Nile

Hope Im wrong , WHUFC
But Im convinced Doolan will NOT make it at Test level
Coulter Nile is LIKELY to struggle as well ,in my opinion

If they are the next 2 in line, then the depth at this precise time is very low

Yeah I haven't seen much of Doolan but his had a great two years of shield cricket (yet a very poor few years earlier )

I actually really like Coulter Nile, especially if the pitch has a bit of life in it. Would be a very handy number 9 if he plays as well lol

Pattinson, Starc and Cummings are all miles in front of Coulter-Nile when their body's are right. I really don't think depth is an issue. Bird still floating around and Patto actually looking real good again albeit in Mickey Mouse cricket. Don't forget Doug the Rug.

With Boof in charge and a new found ideal of logic being put in place I think guys who can really bat like Max Klinger but might be a little old might still get an opportunity. When your 4-0 up it might be the ideal time to through Doolan a cap but again I'm not sure Boof will change just for the sake of it.

I don't actually think long term these two guys are anywhere near next in line, particularly NCN

Faulkner for Bailey will be the only change

Surely not Faulkner can't barely even makes Tasmanias top 6

Haddin at 6, Faulk at 7 ?

I think George will play, the only change would be a forced one due to injury and I reckon we will be unchanged. Having said that I haven't watched the news in 2 days.

Just hearing snippets of Clarke today he was saying there is alot of grass on the wicket and hinted that an extra seamer would be handy on it.
Got the feeling Watto wont bowl
Either Faulkner or Coulter-Nile could do as good of a job with the bat as Bailey

Saw Watson bowl on the news and looked ok.

Unchanged line up IMO

Rumours that Haddin set to announce retirement at end of test.

Tim Paine has to come in if Haddin retires but in career best form I doubt he will
