Yes! I mentioned this somewhere once we went 2-0 down. It's in the bag.

I'd take you up on that cept my Avatar is already spoken for.
Spark is right......this has traditionally been a consolation prise for the losing Ashes team in recent times.

What are everyone's thoughts on the best possible ODI lineup for Australia as it stands? It's a bit hard to know without much consistency in the ODI lineups over the past few years...
I'd have thought it was something like this:
Warner, <Hughes?>, Watson, Clarke, Bailey, <Voges?>, Haddin, Johnson, Harris, McKay, <Doherty?>
These players appear to be at the forefront of the selectors' ODI minds: Faulkner, Maxwell, Finch, Marsh, Wade
Players like Lynn, Steve Smith, Cutting, Coulter-Nile, Maddinson are also probably in the mix for getting a run this summer while they rotate the players through the games. My issue with Faulkner and Maxwell is the same as Cutting, all players who can throw the bat but are a question mark as a 4th bowling option because of their economy rates and as a number 6 batsman if/when the top order collapses in the way it was doing last summer.

watson, hughes, clarke, bailey, smith, voges, rad haddin, johnson, starc, mckay, some spinner
idk i put no real thought into this. if you don't open with watson, obviously an opener comes in for smith (also: someone could just come in at 5 instead of smith), voges could be replaced by maxwell or someone, question marks over keeper and spinner. harris comes in for mckay if harris intends to push for the 2015 WC.

When do Australia go to SA?
Guess their one day side may depend on who rests up for that.
