    In the past 14 months Australia has won the WC, won both the two recent home Test series and the ODI series, plus the away Test series in WI and the previous home Test series against India convincingly. They also won the ODI series in England. The only thing Australia didn't win in the last 14 months was the Ashes which was 2-3 and the Mickey Mouse T20 that just finished. I wouldn't think Lehman is under any pressure at all. While Australia might consider that an average year, most countries would consider that the best year in their history.

      Stoinis replacing Faulkner is an interesting decision. Surely we need a better bowler?

      I don't believe Rod Marsh should be selecting sides.

        The last 4 ODI we have played in the opposition has scored over 300. I agree we need better bowling, not batsman.

          That's such old school thinking, get with the program. We need 11 all rounders who don't do either brilliantly, nor consistently. Then we are in like Flynn. Restricting opposition scoring as a means to win games...

            Sanity has prevailed and Khawaja will replace Shaun Marsh for the second ODI. Adam Zampa will also come in for his debut match.

              NZ batted first and made 9/281

              Should be gettable.

                Another stepping stone for Mitch Marsh, led the team home when in some deep trouble with a composed 60

                  Man of the match. Batted well and a couple of wickets, very impressive.

                    Impressive performance by the Australian bowlers in the 3rd ODI against NZ, who were flying at 0-84 after 9.2 overs, but folded to all out 246. Good even bowling performance, men of the series for Australia so far have been Mitchell Marsh and John Hastings.

                      Australia in trouble again, 4/95. Maxwell duck. Need Marsh to save the day again.

                        80 needed off the last 15 with 4 wickets in hand. Big opportunity for Wade here, if he fails his position must be questionable.

                          I'm not sure why maxwell gets so many chances, had one good innings a year and no idea how to look at what the pitch or bowlers are doing before he plays stupid strokes.
