*Official* Australia limited overs tour of Scotland and England 2024

Fair enough to question Salt’s ODI future but surely not his international future as he’s a lock as our T20 opener.

I think we learned a fair bit, which is after all the point of these series. We need Root in the ODI side in the absence of anyone else who can drop anchor. We learned that Harry Brook can play destructive ODI innings and that Duckett belongs in the format. We learned about Potts and Carse in the format for now at least. What would we have learned playing Curran?

I would say the only certs for the foreseeable in this side should be Duckett, Root, Buttler, probably Brook, Rashid and Archer. A lot of places up for grabs otherwise.

My only reason to preserve with Matt Short is the false hope of D'arcy short getting another run at the top order to partner Matt

Yeah that would make the batting order a bit too short at the top.

I thought Hardie did very well with the ball this series, certainly way better than Abbott.

Extremely low bar to clear

Abbott did a great job this series at reinforcing my conviction he won't step up to internationals.

If he ever did have a chance of making it at this level it was years ago. He's miles off it now, consistently the least impressive bowler on show on either side

He's 32. Considering his modest impact so far I'd think he might have played his last international, but our selectors are a conservative bunch and he's the kind of player that they might recall in a pinch because he's previous international experience.

agree

 

[Starfighter]

agree

That too.

Abbott's still a pretty good t20 cricketer, no?

 

[TheJediBrah]

In my (limited) viewing Abbott takes a lot of wickets but it's usually because he's getting smashed and the batsmen get themselves out

I’d say Potts made a very good case to being an automatic from now on.

Literally every bowler in T20 internationals.
