Should Dave Warner be considered for Aus' WC side? His average is almost below 30 and Finch clearly is better than him.

Yep, middle order is really shaky without him plus his bowling balances the team nicely

Reckons they'll take him but he seems to never go on and make a big score these days.

I don't know about that.
We know Smitteh is a lock for no.4, the openers spots are pretty much set (with Watto as the back up if required), Forkers should be in the XI, if Maxwell is in the XI it will be as the main spin option, Johnson, Starc, Haze and Cummins will likely be the quicks with a spot maybe for Rhino if his body is holding up. Marsh will be in the squad. Watson, Bailers and Clarke will be in the squad, but probably only 2 of the 3 playing (unless Watson is opening) with White to come in if Clarke's hammy doesn't make it. Keeper and another spinner are probably the only question marks I think.

I reckon Haddin will be lucky to make it tbh. With the openers at their disposal he will bat down the order and tbh he hasn't really been great in that role in ages, if ever. Can see Wade getting it. He'll make some runs but give them all back in dropped catches.

Yeah I don't agree with that at all.

I don't really think so. The whole point is that typical keepers who get shoved down at 7 don't do much. I think the Gillys and MSDs are misleading as they're clearly not typical. As you'll see below, MSD in particular is crazy

Haddin hasnt been very good at 7 since the last WC but he's also been basically perfectly average. I dont think Wade or anyone is gonna do much better than Haddin, and if they do, it's probably a fluke anyway. I don't really care who plays there, I dont expect much out of them, what with eleven 50s over 250 matches and all
