Because selection is a f**king joke.
We are a f**king absolute rabble at the moment, it's embrassing.
Starcy has been the only positive, so glad he's back bowling well and taking bags of wickets.

Should see some of the Wickets they play the County Championship on........especially in April
Also we play 10 first class matches per year as opposed to England nearly 20 including touring teams and University Matches.

Cause he plays for NSW
Correct weight. He's a Mark Ealham cricketer, a bitser.

Probably in Sth Africa and his 150 would've came from 151 balls

Conditions must be easy if Marsh is making runs. Tennis ball on concrete comes to mind

Geez some of you blokes a harsh! The same blokes who said Smith was never a test player. I know i know...its a forum...everyone gets an opinion. Just make it a little balanced. Constantly bagging selection and individuals is boring. Sometimes doing the above stimulates conversation. Oh and until this series we were top.

If that is directed at me, I will never understand the Marsh selection no matter how many runs he make but I have never questioned Steve Smith selection. Marsh gas had more "chances" than any other player simply because of who he knows not on his performance Henriques didn't deserve his spot and now out for 4
