Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3337416, member: 9052"] I think the risk with going Inglis right now is it becomes hard to go back to Carey if he fails. Aust cricket team has generally been a "harder to get dropped than get picked" and is usually about rewarding long term success rather than horses for courses and picking on form. Carey has been set up as the heir apparent so to go with Inglis now would be like saying "you were ok, but you're no longer good enough for the job and we're going with the young buck". If Inglis fails after being picked, then you have a situation where you have to go back to the heir apparent like "we made a mistake you can come in now" and you're also having to drop the young guy that you took a punt on, which could dent him and set his development back. By picking Carey now they're giving him first chance at securing the spot because of his long term form. Inglis now knows he's the new heir apparent, which brings confidence and he can focus his development on that. [/QUOTE]
