Starc looked to have a back issue late in the day. Might be just a precaution.locky801 wrote:Boland now added to the Aussie squad for Boxing Day test with Hazelwood still unlikely. Talk of Starc being rested, surely not unless he is injured

Why the **** bring him over on those stats, especially if there is no trust to bring him in?
Bring Flintoff back then, he's a good looking rooster.

He would be well suited to Australian pitches as he plays pace and bounce well, which the other two now do not. You have to remember how hard it is it open in england at the minute with the amount of swing and seam, warner is the best opener in the world and even he was made look silly there.

That's like putting Jack Watts at CHF for Melbourne on debut on Queens birthday weekend. Pointless. What are you achieving by doing that?

Surely Harris is out and Street is in....still think Khawaja might be given the opening duties.
Cummins to come back in and either Starc or Boland to be out pending Starcs fitness.

I miss that aspect with today's drop-in pitches, years ago we'd have the GABBA to look forward to as it was the first test and would seam, the WACA would provide bounce and carnage, AO would see high scores then it would break up on day 4-5 to create a dour contest and the SCG for a spin off.
