    How long will the Rogers experiment last?

      Bring back Warner?

        I'd stick with Rogers. Imo he has been our best batsmen so far. Terribly unlucky in the first innings

          Warner took a wicket for Australia A!
          Seriously though we have options right now.

              Doolan?
              Wade as a specialist bat maybe?

                *!*!*!*! me!... Another wasted review, not that it really matters.

                  Woops somehow didn't put the word no before options.

                      I have no idea how to even begin addressing the batting order... It's a nightmare....

                      Warner - can't be much worse
                      Hughes - at least he has some runs as an opener
                      Doolan - fly him in or Khawaja if he shows something
                      Clarke - can't keep coming in at 3/30
                      Watson - by default
                      Smith - doing ok
                      Wade - I just don't like Haddin

                      This is probably stupid, very stupid, but it's something like this or back them all in again. I don't know where to start, probably the top 3 is the main issue, and then the line up from 4-6. But even then, I don't see where we make up the runs consistently.

                        Usman showing some fight now, he's gotta keep it up though

                          Be nice if Clarke and khawaja can get some batting practise by hanging in there for awhile

                            Usman quite impressive. Didn't look good in the first innings, but perhaps he can be the number 3.

                              Shit shot from Clarke, there's a leg slip in place and he's trying to tickle a spinner down the leg side. If he's going to play a shot hit the thing, it might just move the fielder out of there.

                                One gets Two, Khawaja out after a repreive again.......needs to learn how to punish teams. I would persist at 3. I would also bat Smith at 4. Hughes is a horrible player all round.....having said that Smith just out.....forget it!
