I think they should pick Compo as opener, but TBH, it's not going to matter either way 10-0. Even Chris Jones is scoring runs against these clowns:laugh:

One of the BBC commentators is really getting into Faulkner for not using his height enough. It's kinda cute.

With Hussey gone, we don't have a batsman who can bowl some solid seamers if Watson isn't in the team, for one reason or another. So I suppose we'll just giving him an audition of sorts because let's face it, Watson might be out of team at some point during the Ashes.

So is this the usual Taunton road or are the best attack in the world just having an off day?
Well, before we get to trolling the ex coach, who's obviously having a pretty rough time at the moment, it is worth remembering South Africa were meh with the ball in both their warm ups last year.

Yeah but even they didn't let a guy with a career average of 17 score a ton (well he is almost there at tea) against them on the first day of proper cricket on the tour.

Nah, but they did let a guy with a FC average of 33 hit a 60 ball ton. No offence intended to grecian.

Regardless of what Cricinfo says I don't think an 81 on a probable road is going to make the selectors sit up and take notice of Compton. The problem with him has been going on to make a significant score once he's set.

Somerset could bring up their thousand here and deny Australia any batting practice.. Jones, averaging 17 no longer, moves to 129..

Compton's knock is looking better and better as time goes by, Starc is gonna walk away with really good figures too.
