Message: [QUOTE="Sproj, post: 2993888, member: 8423"] I feel like the selectors still didn't get it right BUT dare I say it, this is certainly a step in the right direction. Handscomb can feel a little hard done by, I know he has issues but I do feel he is one of the best 6 bats in Australia, though easy to argue against that. Patterson is the glaring omission. He should be in the squad and playing. Labusyringe should never have been picked but he is, so give him the two SL tests to see if he shows improvement. Pucovski is either a bold or terrible call, time will tell and especially depending on whether he plays or not. Burns is a no-brainer but where does he bat? Seems he is dropping into the middle order. Head simply isn't good enough, lacks the required concentration for test level and I would have stuck with Handscomb over him. The bowlers will simply not be dropped no matter how poorly they do it seems, though I suspect CA might be holding out on Pattinson as a secret trump card for the Ashes provided he can get through the remainder of the Shield season and if so, I think this is a very wise move. You could certainly argue Tremain and /or Richardson should be given a chance against SL and I would not disagree. [/QUOTE]
