Loved the interview at the toss....

"This is a great moment, one to cherish forever. Australia gets to be captained by Shane Watson."
Who said that? Surely not Shane Watson. Australia has such a proud record of test captains. I am truly devastated Michael Clarke is not fit.

Very interested to see how this rahane guy does. Lots of hype around him.

lol at usman khawaja. he should have played for pakistan. His skin is a bit too dark for the baggy green.

Nah my prediction of him never playing for austalia holds true as long as clarke and mickey mouse are in charge
Baseless conspiracy theories are one thing, race-baiting is another thing entirely. Knock it off.

It'll be interesting to see how Hughes goes against them if he's in and set when they come on. Wonder if he will play it more competently and confidently.
that's why I'd rather just ask Hughes to play the spinners right away. You can always bring back the quicks if the experiment doesn't work and he survives.

Can't afford to be getting hit for boundaries consistently on this pitch though, looks to be a low scoring game from the looks of the pitch.

Lol, way this series has gone India will put on 250 for the first wicket, most of them clipped through midwicket from half volleys.

Whilst it wont guarantee that he will become a good test batsman anytime, Hughes certain has got a huge amount of talent

Knew Wade would play but as VC? Surely that just stands for ViCtorian?

Maxwell for Doherty I saw coming but MJ for Moz is lolz. So that leaves Uzi as the only guy in the team not to play a test.

And at least he's young. For all this talk of a young side, Hughes is the only specialist batsman under 25 in today's lineup.

Who would be a suitable VC in this side? Siddle? Warner?

Any of these names being mentioned reflects how slim the pickings are generally at the moment.

Whats funny is Wade gets it by default because his place is the most secure after Clarke and Watson.

Hughes' technique against Ashwin doesn't instill a lot of confidence.

And in what universe is Wade a better keeper than Haddin?
