Message: [QUOTE="Sproj, post: 3690760, member: 8423"] Yeah but McSweeney isn't part of the in crowd, so he's more expendable. Seriously though, I do get the selectors reluctance to drop the likes of Khawaja and Marsh although at absolutely don't agree with it. Given their ages, dropping them likely means their test careers are over. I imagine they want to use Khawaja to mentor Konstas moving forward as Australia has a massive issue with opening batters and aside from this series, Khawaja has done pretty well there in recent years. Time looks definitely to be catching up with him though not only with the bat but also in the field, he's dropped a number of catches. In terms of Marsh though, he's never locked his spot in, Webster is bashing down the door and of course there is Green to come back. Marsh really isn't that important. And yes, I really do hope he makes a mountain of runs when he is inevitably picked but I don't have any confidence whatsoever that he will. Then there is the Labushagne issue. He is young enough to be dropped and make it back and really, I don't think there could be any complaints if he was dropped instead of McSweeney. But Labushagne is very much one of the boys, he isn't under any pressure whatsoever and he should be. [/QUOTE]
