Australia need to sort out the top order problems in their batting. Warner and Watson, once he comes back to the side, are okay, but it's the other spot that is not decided yet. Marsh, Cowan, Khawaja _ none of them look convincing enough.

Where now for Shaun Marsh? Lucky there's not another test in this series as he'd be gone for sure.

Well Watson will be back for the West Indies series, and I think it became pretty evident a while that it'd probably be Marsh to go unless he actually scored some runs here. By being so, so ridiculously bad he may have played himself out of the reserve batsman spot as well though.

I mean, it's really hard to be surprised or overly annoyed. It's happened soooo many times lately, 3/****-all.

Marsh has had an Agarkar-like series with the bat. Good piece of bowling though.

Disappointed for Cowan. Wanted another half ton from him here.

Good move to go round the wicket. One of the few things that Clarke doesn't necessarily like when playing spin.

Exactly. Cannot justify a seat on the plane.

Arthur's pushing of Marsh as some sort of batting god was one of the major reasons I was very suss on his appointment (pushing Johnson also makes me question his judgement). Having him selecting the squad worries me, but you can't make excuses for a performance like Marsh has delivered.

Usman by a street as the reserve - looks to have a very good temperament and his only flaw is that he didnt cash in on one of the many starts he made
