The reason why Hughes is at or near Australian selection is because his record at Shield level is a lot better than everyone else outside of the Australian side.I don't see the value of giving Hughes a contract yet. He'll probably replace Rogers at some point in the next 15 months, but it certainly won't happen in the UAE. I guess the lesson that Hughes needs to heed is that selection to the Australian team is not a revolving door. I don't feel he particularly deserves any more perks for "potential".
Play 5 consecutive games for Australia without getting dropped, learn to score runs on slower wickets, fix his technique.The reason why Hughes is at or near Australian selection is because his record at Shield level is a lot better than everyone else outside of the Australian side.
Yes records aren't everything, but it's hard to see what else he needs to do.
