Australia Test squad

Not really doing much good for Khawaja's confidence if he is in and out of the team with no real fair run. Did well in the 2nd test in SA and then in the first test against NZ was playing well before Ponting ran him out.

I don't think Aus will play five bowlers.

He was found wanting on some of the most basic aspects of batting.

Care to elaborate what aspects?

Leaving a ball on a good length outside off, playing defensively to a good length ball outside off, and putting bad balls away.

It's a shame Watson isn't playing in order to lengthen the batting order as well as an extra bowler..

Just looking at the forecast and it may not be a bad toss to lose with the chance of a shower on the first morning......the first 3 days are very comfortable with temperatures in the early to mid 20's before it warms up just a little by the 4th 5th day....what ever time may be lost (25% chance) on the first 2 days will be picked up during the rest of the days sunny conditions...

I best not be tuning in on Christmas night to watch rain. I'm warning you now Rabbitohs, sort your weather out.

Do I sniff a taste of irony in that statement - hazsa, you only have to sleep-in, in parts of the U.K to miss summer...

Kash, why do you support Khawaja so much?

Because he is of the same origin as me and I want to see him do well even for a team that I dont support.
