Re: God help me - the Test Cricket thread

My problems with this team mainly revolve around the openers..... Cameos Khawaja, who has played one decent innings versus off spin in a totally unfulfilled career, and a fading Warner, with his completly on/off form over the past two years, plus he'll be crucified by the SA crowds etc. CA are as weak as piss, stood by and did F all while the whole SA set up used gutter tactics to extreme levels. At the very least deKock should have been censured for his behaviour. Fancy letting officials walk around with Sonny BW masks. And we're the bad guys?
Longer term I still reckon Renshaw has what it takes to open, just can't find the key to unlock whatever it is that's missing.
And that side is old, too old.
Left field, but I'd pick Maxwell at six to offer a counter punching option and some spin, plus at least he can field unlike other contenders. Captained Victoria well at times too. Why Neser also can't get a game staggers me, oh wait, he doesn't live in Bankstown or Manly. No more NSW entitlement. Too many inflated heads.
