Has just blocked the **** out of it
Batted well so far tbf to him. On the slow side obv but we'll take it.
He is so gonna go to South Africa now, unless he fails in some tests in between or the next 2.

Wicket seems to have eased out. Nothing much happening, though i guess Aussie spinners are not that great.

Well bowled by Doherty. Looking better than Lyon did (not saying much)
disagree, while he sure hasnt bowled as many loose balls as lyon he just looks so much less likely to take a wicket. atleast with lyon you thought there was always that chance he could get one to turn in through the gate if he got it in the right spot for long enough, i just dont see doherty taking a wicket unless the batsmen miss times a slog or just misses a straight one. for someone who seems to put so much effort into turning the ball he gets **** all

Oh well this is a cakewalk for India. Bit annoying really was holding out hope for it being a low scoring thriller but the attack Australia picked was always going to struggle. How bad do they think Lyon is to have picked Maxwell?

After Dohers bombs out, stand by for Invers to retrospectively come up with an injury niggle for Lyon to explain his exclusion

Like he retrospectively came up with Siddle's hammy, and Starc's bone spurs

Australia's 4 best bowlers are pacemen and by a loooooooooooooooooooooooong way

Simply pick 3 plus a spinner and Henriques

It's not ****ing hard unless you are an Australian selector

Apparently Lyon is actually really sick at the moment.

That might just be the feeling being dropped for Doherty and Maxwell causes though, I dunno.

Which is why I think they may have another brainfart with the ashes squad if this series carries on as it looks like it will go.

I fully accept we no longer have the stock to dominate world cricket

That's why it's so important to get selection right

Maxwell?

Doherty?

Cowan? How do you play 15 consecutive Tests when you average 31?

It's malpractice, not just line-ball, 50/50 calls that have gone bad

Are you this bad at your fulltime job as Invers is at his?

I'm not
