like even if they insisted on him, they could easily have picked mmarsh/turner/anyone instead of five fronline fast bowlers, three of whom are mediocreThey literally can't have any other balance, bar two spinners instead of three seamers. And they passed up a golden opportunity to add cover. Its astonishing
i actually reckon mmarsh would do better than ncn/kichardson/behrendorfflike even if they insisted on him, they could easily have picked mmarsh/turner/anyone instead of five fronline fast bowlers, three of whom are mediocre
australia has never been a good chasing side since scores got ridic (which is why that turner innings was so astonishing). you can critique warner's innings, sure, but long-term we aren't getting far in this tournament if we're going to concede 350+This was a winnable game tbh. Warner's innings an ATG bad one in the circumastances.
That strike rate would make Azhar blush,just awful.This was a winnable game tbh. Warner's innings an ATG bad one in the circumastances.
i mean if we could magically swap out kane/dorf for haze and a magically fit jhye, then that would be ideal. but mmarsh should still be in the squad.What options do Aus actually have to get another bowler in? Their batting is no great shakes either. India the favourites they have all bases covered compared to anyone else.
I wouldn't go that far, but I can't think of any logical reason for this squad to have two reserve seamers and one reserve spinneri actually reckon mmarsh would do better than ncn/kichardson/behrendorff
