But couldn't any team say that though?
i mean give us maybe one or two more decent batters and another gun pacer to partner Roach than we'd be pretty good too, but the fact is there doesn't seem to be any decent spin prospects coming anytime soon, and no batsmen either, so Aus will most likely be stuck with the same collection of players for at least the next three or four years,
And yes they nearly beat SA in the second test, but again i'll stress that they had the security of Hussey in that middle order, now though the batting is a total lottery and that will not do the teams confidence any good.[/QUOTE
Maddonson,Burns are both very talented prospects.Australia do have talent within the squad Khawaja Warner Hughes and Clarke can form a very good top four and Watson and Bailey should battle it out for the number 5 batting spot.
