Message: [QUOTE="The True King, post: 3209502, member: 9651"] I have a similar reaction to the thought of Henriques playing too. I actually don't mind Henriques as a limited overs player and he's obviously a well liked figure and been okay in shield but I genuinely have no clue what either of these guys are doing near the test squad. Maxwell and Steketee would have been better options. Odds are right now we'll pick the same XI and scrape a win against what is a patched up Indian side that literally have a FC bowling attack and three batsmen. Our media will celebrate it as if it is some remarkable achievement against the odds and that we're the best team in the world and overcome massive adversity. The circus of Lyon's 100th test will be a massive distraction as this test is all about him being the greatest ever and I predict Paine will get plaudits for leading the bounce back. Next series we will be in the exact same position of having an extremely vulnerable batting order, a captain that is a passenger, and a bowling attack which is overly reliant on Cummins and Hazlewood taking wickets.
