There is no fight in them at all is there? They've had it too good for too long and have gone completely soft.

I think logic has totally gone out the door with the selectors.

What in the blue f*** are they thinking in regards to Mitchell Swepson’s replacement? Why replace a leggie, with a left arm orthodox spinner when you already have one of those over there in Agar???

How in f***’s name could you overlook another leggie in Adam Zampa who has taken many international wickets - albeit in the limited over caper?

FMD 🤬

Renshaw dropped for Travis Head. Makes sense.

Boland dropped for Matt Kuhnemann :shock:

Can anyone understand picking Ashton Agar in the original squad, only to turn their back on him when Kuhnemann gets flown in to replace Swepson?

Makes NO f****** SENSE.

At least Agar can bat.

FMD.

Now watch Kuhnemann get 5’fer on debut…

The selectors have some thinking to do (although, their thinking is a bit weird to say the least).

Handscomb shouldn’t lose his spot. Green has to come back for the next test. Who misses out? Surely not Head again. It’ll mean one of Travis Head or Handscomb should open at the expense of Warner / Renshaw. I’d go with Travis Head to open (better against pace - even if it’s for 8 overs), and Handscomb in the middle order to tackle to old ball / spin.

And you’d think Hazlewood or Starc will be back (if not both) at the expense of Kuhnemann and maybe Murphy.

These irresponsible turds need to be baked in the media.

Does Steve Smith EVER accept the umpire’s decision? Shane Watson reincarnate. Plus, how many f****** times do you go out to the sweep?

WTF was that from Alex Carey. FMD - you want to play a high risk reverse sweep on a severely deteriorating pitch early in your innings? The level of stupidity is off this charts.

Matt Kuhnemann playing a reverse sweep? FMD and lol :lol:

Lost 8 for 28. What a muppet show.

Imagine if we didn’t allow India’s last 3 wickets to put on 120 odd in their first innings. Useless f****** keep doing this!

Imagine if the mentally fragile and technically inept batters didn’t lose 8/28 in our second innings. Disgusting.

How’s this for a stat… the sweep shot was attempted 29 times for a result of 6/20. Seriously, F****** lol :lol:

Is there another left arm custard orthodox spinner we can send over there?

Adam Zampa was be pissing himself laughing.

Thank f*** for the women. Now there is a superbly talented unit.

Yes,so fair enough.

But no point flying back and forth.Stay home and look after Family,Pat.

You know what’s waiting if you go back and that isn’t necessarily the Indian Cricket Team.
