australia - selection issues- specialist spinners

halba

International 12th Man
we can clearly see these pitches are conducive to quality spin. pace will get hit.
why didnt selectors pick lyon or boyce? they would've been a handful on these wickets
i dont understand the agar selection. there are plenty of batters in the aussie lineup. did they pick agar as yet another batter in the lineup.
 

Compton

International Debutant
Presumably they didn't pick Lyon because he got battered in the LO matches he played recently.

i guess it doesnt matter too much. they'll use their medium paces like faulkner to do the same job if not better(5 wickets v pak).
