Why are we talking about him? Has he been selected for something?Anyone else looking forward to all the innings of 14 off 23 Ben McDermott will produce?

Didn’t every man and his dog score runs against Pakistan when they last touredApart from Smith there isn't much that can do the wrecking.
Yeah and this attack looks even worse. Suffice it to say that any seemingly "impressive" Australian individual performances in this Test series are largely meaninglessDidn’t every man and his dog score runs against Pakistan when they last toured
Hard to argue with that now. Burns was not the logical choice pre-series but no one could have predicted how bad Warner, especially, was going to be.Lack of performances against Pakistan this summer will be more of an indictment than good performances will indicate quality. Just like the Sri Lanka tests last summer.
Still, I think Patterson and Burns would have given us a 3-1 scorecard instead of the 2-2 we ended up with.
Including Renshaw and Handscomb. Maybe I'm too pessimistic. We could get a few batsmen in the team on a lucky hot streak. Like The two previously mentioned.Didn’t every man and his dog score runs against Pakistan when they last toured
The squad is fine. I wouldnt even mind if we just play 6 out of the 7 bats. Also I dont think it will be too tough to bring in someone. Besides Wade, who do you think is unlucky?So Australia have only picked 5 batsmen (and 2 WK batsmen) in the T20 squad. Two of those, Finch and Turner have not played a game since being injured.
Anyone else think this is short sighted?
Are Australia really much worse? We still have Smith and Warner, and have replace Khawaja with Labuschagne. The other three will be whoever the dart happens to land on next. Which is what it was back then too. Australia have had ATG Smith, ATVG Warner and one other test class batsman for basically the last 6 years.Yeah, I'm not usually optimistic regarding Australia especially in regards to batting, but this Pakistan team looks weak apart from a few players. Since they last toured Australia are slightly worse, but Pakistan are much worse
Warner's probably a worse batsman than he was three years ago, in fairness.Are Australia really much worse? We still have Smith and Warner, and have replace Khawaja with Labuschagne.

Crazy even they haven't even drawn here for 24 years. Even Sri Lanka managed that lol5 whitewashes in a row a real possibility.
