Pick the oz T20 side for England if you can?

[brockley]

This is a hard one.

 

[Adders]

Who ****ing cares??

We've still got 2 tests of the real cricket to go, why would anyone be thinking now about the ****fest to come ???

Edit:

And this is the ASHES subforum......

 

[benchmark00]

Go away


Warner
Finch
Marsh
Maddinson
Bailey
Maxwell
Wade
Forkers (debut)
Coota Nile
Starc
Doherty



May have been through injury but Watson isn't in the t20 frame these days is he?

 

[brockley]

Yeh he is,wasn't bowling when we last played T20,and he off to play with either the Rajistan Royals or Brisbane Heat in the Champions trophy. Yeh definitely a spot for Finch.Question why do we have to pick Bailey,that said they will.

 

[NUFAN]

Go away


Warner

Maddinson
Bailey
Maxwell
Wade

Coota Nile
Starc
Doherty

I don't mind this team. Although it would be nice to find a keeper good in this format, Wade will play though - left field would be Phil Hughes with the gloves.

I'll go with:

1 Warner
2 Finch
3 Watson
4 Voges
5 Bailey
6 Maxwell
7 Wade
8 Faulkner
9 Agar
10 Coulter-Nile
11 Starc

Maddinson, MMarsh, Hazlewood, Johnson in reserve, will do.

 

[brockley]

Tim Ludeman?

 

[benchmark00]

Shaun Marsh is a lock.

 

[Maximas]

There is no way I'd be playing Agar in t20s tbh, maybe ODIs though, we may as well stick with Doherty for the t20s or bring SOK over for a bit of a batting contribution

Why not Agar? I'm not happy with Doherty as an Australian player because of his inability to perform in pressure situations and his poor record in England. I want to see the young kid have a go on debut.

Ludeman is an option I guess Brockley, I just feel he needs another big season in BBL before he can get a spot.

 

[ajdude]

ludeman is not a viable option, his lack of hair is not marketable

It would force him to develop t20 skills at a time when we desperately need him to be developing 4/5 day cricket skills, if he matures and becomes a good t20 option then give him a run.

Fair enough mate. I just don't rate Doherty and feel as though playing Agar who is already in England could be a viable option. His batting is exciting and I think he looks like a good short form option that could be an option for the World Cup in just 18 months time.

 

[Maximas]

definitely an ODI option, would love to see him play the WC ahead of Doherty, I suppose as long as it isn't a permanent role he may as well play these matches.

 

[benchmark00]

Should play Brenton McDonald IMO.

 

[Spikey]

I don't mind this team. Although it would be nice to find a keeper good in this format, Wade will play though - left field would be Phil Hughes with the gloves.

I'll go with:

1 Warner
2 Finch
3 Watson

5 Bailey
6 Maxwell
7 Wade
8 Faulkner
9 Agar
10 Coulter-Nile
11 Starc

Maddinson, MMarsh, Hazlewood, Johnson in reserve, will do.

Specialist keeper imo. Dump Maxwell for a proper batsman and then pick Nevill

 

[brockley]

Nevill useless in T20 and one dayers,as a batsmen.4 dayers his stuff.
Wade or ludeman.

 

[Spikey]

but if the keeper is just gonna be batting at 7 or even possibly 8.......

 

[Maximas]

is neville even that good a keeper? How about Handscombe?

 

[brockley]

Handscomb not picked for the stars T20,Quiney keeper last year.

 

[NUFAN]

Maximase, the guy who likes to add an e to everyone's name.

With my Xi there would be plenty of times I wouldn't even bat Wade or Faulkner if the top order does well. Coulter-Nile, Starc and Agar would be better to give it a tonk.
