Message: [QUOTE="Fitzy, post: 3681975, member: 9881"] Sam Konstas is no more accomplished than Teague Wyllie was at a similar time. The kids had 2 scores of **** all in 3 since he has had more of a spotlight. He is not going to cope against Bumrah. I think McSweeney is far and away the clear option even not being an opener in terms of age, ability, form, potential and reliability. Bancroft and Harris have had good shield seasons since. Konstas is without a doubt not ready for Test cricket. For mine he was lucky to be in the conversation. He wasn’t even in the conversation for best batters at the most recent u19 World Cup for Australia. Dixon and Weigben won that by a landslide. Great prospect and potential don’t get me wrong but he is not going to succeed in the Aussie arena. There’s enough proof in the pudding that you can pretty much guarantee that so why put him in? You get nothing out of a 19 year old failing on a very big stage. Bancroft and Harris are exceedingly more likely to succeed and there careers and confidence are exceedingly more expendable in there 30’s. McSweeney is the best batter in this conversation by a donkeys dick and I think he had the technique and presence of mind to not be flustered by opening the batting. [/QUOTE]
