    If fit I reckon Cummins is the pick of them.

      Great first session. Minimized the damage and keep themselves in with a chance to win.

      It'll be interesting to see how we go without Warner being the backbone of the innings, having only got 29!!

        That was a pretty funny dismissal. Aaron fell over after he bowled the ball, Warner top edged it to to slip and was caught. Aaron got up and looked toward square leg to see if Warner had hooked it to the fence, then realised it had been caught.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            Watson not the answer at all. My patience has run out.

                With Marsh likely to be out for Boxing Day put Watson back to number 6 where his consistent 20-49 scores hurt less and give someone else a chance at number 3 (Doolan, Ferguson, Burns).

                  Does Henriques have a claim to replace Marsh?

                    His first class record is pretty terrible, so on that basis, yes.

                      In the selectors minds, probably. But I really don't think we need 4 bowlers + 2 all rounders, especially when we only have 2 consistent world class batsmen in the side at the moment in Warner and Smith. We need to strengthen the batting, not weaken it even further.

                        The old Dean Jones theory - of looking at the score and adding 2 wickets to it to see if you are travelling ok -

                        5/123 wouldn't be very flash.

                        Pretty critical period here for the Aussie batsman. Hard to see us making a score unless Smith makes a big one.

                            Scary for you, we think along the same lines!

                              Apparently so.

                                Time Watson got flicked .
                                Total lazy irresponsible shot, and not the first time .
                                Maybe we'll look at the first class scene .
