Message: [QUOTE="The True King, post: 3074782, member: 9651"] Take Smith out and our batting order is ordinary. We deserve to lose this test. With any luck it will be the catalyst for the selectors to pick a proper middle order this summer. On that note, Burns is locked in for an opening spot back in Aus regardless of shield form in my books. If Warner and Harris are given this many chances after such meagre returns than surely Joe gets first crack given how he performed last summer. I have no clue who opens with him but I would put a line through Bancroft and Harris. For now it would come down to Khawaja or Warner. I'd probably lean towards Usman just to see if he really wants a baggy green. His days at three are over and he's not batting any lower down the order so his test career is on the line. I think the selectors had the correct middle order earlier this series but I'd love to see Patterson (test av 144) get another go and Pucovski is the future so wouldn't mind him coming in at 6 and then moving up the order if he can establish himself. Got absolutely no time for MMarsh or his brother. Burns Khawaja Labuschagne Smith Head/Patterson Wade/Pucovski Paine (for now) Cummins Pattinson/Starc Hazlewood Lyon [/QUOTE]
