The Boxing Day test in 2014

[GVGjr]

I'd be really interested to read your projections on the 11 players selected for next years Boxing day test?

A lot of players might not be there due to age or form and it could very much be a transitional period for the team.

It would be great to read your projections.

Love for CA to swallow their pride and for it to be played in South Africa(I know the schedules already done and than is impossible, more the thought of getting some decent series happening) so we could get their team to come over for a proper 5 Test series.

Rogers
Warner
Hughes
Clarke
Smith
Doolan
Wade
Johnson
Pattinson
Cumins
Lyon

A report in the 'little paper' this morning mentioned that it's likely that Cummins will be held back from longer forms of cricket until 2015.

No love for Starc?

Starc, Johnson, Pattinson, Cummins and Siddle as a top up with hopes for Hazlewood and Coulter Nile sniffing too.

Boy I'm happy if we keep em fit!

Good team. I'd have Watson in for Maddinson (looks too inexperienced on paper) and I'd have Paine ahead of Neville or even Wade. I've heard Paine has been playing well.
