He's played one Shield match this season. Whether you think that's good enough is for you to decide.
He's been working on his run-up to the crease to try and help prevent any more hamstring issues.
Boland and Morris were named in the Australia squad for the 1st test against Pakistan, Morris has been left out for the second test.
Seeing how Holder and Mayers can't be bothered because they're playing T20 league somewhere, I think Aus should rest all the IPL players (including unsold wannabe's)
1. Khawaja
2. Bancroft
3. Labuschagne
4. Renshaw
5. Handscomb
6. Hardie
7. Carey
8. Neser
9. Lyon
10. Boland
11. Morris
Finding middle order bats is hard and I think Neser is past it as a Test bowler, but Aus would still win 2-0

Whatever it takes!!!
harsh on Smith tbh
Trying to make it easier for WI so had to think of a way to get rid of Smith and Hazlewood

Looks an easy introduction to the Warner replacement at the top of the order. Very weak attack.

Tbf we actually had a decent attack on paper at the start of the last series and they all got carted around, picked up injuries and by the end we could barely field an attack. So Hopefully this attack will surprise us.

The West Indies' bowling is the least worrying part. Will the batting be able to pass 150? 100?

So apparently Brandon King also turned down selection because he has a pre-existing contract in the Bangladesh premier league. Disappointing as I really thought he wanted to play tests. Maybe they didn't give him enough notice.
So that means Mayers, Hope, Holder and King all opted for T20 instead of tests whilst Seales is injured.
So in fairness to Haynes et all, they had a difficult job. I still maintain the McCaskie, Greaves and Hodge picks are not justifiable and if they had to reach that deeply into the talent pool they should have opted for Nyeem Young and Kevlon Anderson instead.

How did Rakheem miss selection. Might have made it a bit more watchable for entertainment value

I had forgotten about that. We could barely field an XI by the end of that tour.
Given who was available, I would have taken Blackwood and let him his normal attacking style.
If Shamar Joseph can make the squad on the back of 5 FC games then there was room to include Kevlon Anderson who has played a couple more than him.
I would have selected Carty as well ahead of McCaskie.
KB, Tage, Athanaze, JB, Carty, Anderson, JDS, Sinclair, AlJo, Roach, S. Joseph.
McKenzie, Hamilton, Motie, Jordan.

Australia XI squad for the West Indies tour match:
Peter Handscomb (c), Jack Clayton, Harry Conway, Jake Doran, Jayden Goodwin, Liam Haskett, Bradley Hope, Jack Nisbet, Liam Scott, Tim Ward, Doug Warren, Teague Wyllie
Basically non-BBL players. Disappointing to not see Boland included so WI are facing someone with a bit more experience. Neil-Smith might also have been a good pick.
