Bedi?It's a four letter word that starts with a B and ends with an I.
Try getting involved in one of the local cricket or state associations and you'll know what I mean.

It's their lower order which has generally dragged Australia to par scores. Their top order is pretty weak at the moment.Haha nah, their lineup is just weak. Their bottom six in the last match consisted of Smith, Hopes, Hauritz, Hastings, Starc and McKay.
Some animal's genitals imo.Bedi?
That's why I made the point that "it'll be because of issues other than talent pool"It's a four letter word that starts with a B and ends with an I.

Indeed. We badly need an opener opposite Watson. Haddin started out with a bang, but hasn't done much/been fit in the last 18 months - but I guess he is still the best medium term solution as it lets us play Ponting, Clarke, Hussey and White in the middle. Of the others since, Paine is too slow and doesn't rotate the strike enough. Marsh looks fidgety. I actually think Ricky Ponting would be the best partner for Watson, but I doubt he's open to the idea of opening, and he probably won't be playing ODI cricket for too much longer so it's not a long term solution. But with Ponting at the top, you'd have Clarke at #3 and Haddin could float in the order and target the bowlers he fancies.It's their lower order which has generally dragged Australia to par scores.

WADE!!!!!!!!! Perfect fit.Indeed. We badly need an opener opposite Watson.
Add White and Hussey to that and yeah, not quite sure how that's "weak".I am confused. How could a full-strenght AUS top-order be weak?
Watson
Haddin
Ponting
Clarke
He's opened quite a few times, with success. So has Clarke, for that matter (but that was when he was still, erm, good)Indeed. We badly need an opener opposite Watson.

India epic whitewash of that ODI series!Looks like we won't get a game today fellas.
Disappointing, but whilst I wanted to watch cricket, I'm glad Dhoni is getting some rest. Reckon he has been overworked as of late.
There wasn't one. Very divided.What was the consensus on Clarke's innings the other night?
Good but could've been better (more singles, less dots pls)What was the consensus on Clarke's innings the other night?
