Aye, and the point I'm kinda making is that Siddle's selection here deserves something of a similar opprobrium. At least he's got some amount of rep as an up-and-coming bowler, rather than being a Brit who's been playing mostly club cricket up to his 29th birthday. But even so, 6 First-Class matches (however impressive) and you're into the Test squad when there are better-qualified candidates? It's very poor.
