Because he is the 4th best seamer in the team.
Also is Darren Pattison retired from FC cricket? Or are the Vics just picking youth for FC cricket?

still i struggle to believe you couldn't've picked someone other than keith. seems like he'll be batting at 8 too. (i mean, he'll probably add 200 with hastings, but still)
nsw stood up for once and said to ca we can't play 6 bowlers? copeland is probably the bowler out of bollinger, starc, haze, moz and sok they care the least about so it makes sense he was dropped

Because he's not as good as the other bowlers. It doesn't need to be any more complicated than that, and in this case it's not.

And last season he averaged about 60.

He hasn't been dropped for a bowler he was ahead of at the start of the season in the pecking order though. After what happened last season, Dougeh, Starc and Hazelwood were ahead of him and what's happened this season certainly hasn't been enough to change that.

Considering Carters is also basically playing as specialist batsmen, there isn't really anyone else while Michael Hill is injured.

White with ten overs, Maxwell with three.
Inverarity apoplectic as we speak.
White has been taking poles for fun in grade cricket. He also seems to bowl more whenever he's not making runs.

White bowling a lot better then Maxwell, it is good to see him bowling like White and not trying to bowl like Warne. White has always been a handy change bowler to keep the seamers fresh, when he doesn't try and bowl like Warne.

Rob, any chance you can upload Moses 100 from the start of season.
Is there any greater slight in cricket then Moses batting, bowling or fielding.
BTW why is Handscomb keeping over Carters. He really isn't anything more then a batsmen that keeps. Are they using the Sri Lankan tactic, who ever bats the lowest keeps regardless of quality of keeping.

Yeah I found that weird too, but I'm guessing it's a long term thing. They probably want to develop Handscomb as a keeper because Carters won't be playing very often.

Yup they are investing in Handscomb as a keeper now, Carters the better gloveman as we speak but they see Handscomb as being pretty special with the bat.

Still scored more runs then the so called top order batsmen.
