SOK isn't the worst and atleast he can hold a bat and field. Holland is a clone of Phil Tufnell

Sri Lanka lead by 228 now. We really are going to have to pull our finger out and bat out of our skin in the forth innings.

To be honest SOK is better than Jon Holland. Not hard though!

I don't mind John Holland at first class level, it seems every time I watch him bowl (predominantly one day cricket) he bowls well but this just a disgusting selection. He's not even Victoria's first choice spinner FFS, he played two Sheffield Shield matches last season. His numbers are hardly worthy of higher honours. Zampa's numbers are pretty crap but being our main ODI spinner and recently being apart of the Australian squad surely he was next in line. SOK has been the best performing and most consistent spinner in state cricket for an extended period of time now so he earnt his spot while Zampa is the future, they just had to give him ago right now with SOK out injured. Seems to me like they've just pulled Holland's name out of a hat. Unless there's some reason why Zampa can't leave the Caribbean Premier League right now or something?
