Simon Katich has just been called into the squad for the next VB series match against India in Sydney.
Im just a little puzzled as to why he got in ahead of Lehmann , Boof is now back to 100% fitness & has scored 83 & 44 , both at around a run a ball , in his two ING cup matches back.
He's bowling again to & bagged 2-24 against the ill-fated Victorians yesterday.
Obviously its to fill an openers role but we all remember how well Lehmann played last time he opened & I think its time we get him back into the setup.
I do certainly think Katich has a role to play in the side , but not ahead of Lehmann , his experience & calming influence in the middle order has been one of the main factors behind Australia's ODI succes since Ponting took over as skipper.
