i deeadset think they'd win against any other test team (besides aust) at home. Away they might struggle but they;dstill do ok. imo, something like:
1. c.rogers
2. s.katich
3. b.hodge
4. d.hussey
5. a.voges
6. j.hopes
7. b.haddin
8. a.nofke
9. b.hogg
10. s.tait
11. n.bracken

I wasn't certain on who to chuck in at 6. In the end i went with hopes because he has some international experience and can provide the allround option for the team.

On another note, as a proud qlder i've always thought we;d be in the top 2 nations if we split from the rest of aust. This team would do well:
1. m.hayden
2. j.maher
3. m.love
4. s.watson
5. a.symonds
6. j.hopes
7. a.nofke
8. c.hartley
9. a.bichel
10. m.johnson
11. m.kasprovicz

I understand a few of those blokes are out of form, but in form, that team would dominate imo.

Pretty decent bowling depth there. Kasper, Johnson, Bichel, Noffke, Hopes, Watson and Symonds.

Isn't it? When's he ever opened for WA or NSW (other than the occasional fill-in role) in Sheffield Shied \ Pura Cup? Never mind Australia A?

Katich is an underrated bowler. He and Hussey would do some spinning with the old ball.

I do not want DiVenuto in an Australia A lineup.

There aren't many middle order spots available and I went for guns like Bailey, Pomersbach.

Katich to lead from the front and open..

If Bailey's a gun, Di Venuto certainly is.

Never really rated him as an opener in the longer game mind, always preferred him at three. His performances have been somewhat opposed to that.

Katich doesn't bowl much anymore due to the risk of back injuries. Used to hurt his back bowling ATT apparently.
