That will include the WTC final at the Oval beforehand, which is actually not a bad warm up game TBH.

No surprises on the selections. I think i read that, barring injury, the same team will be picked for the WTC and first 2 ashes tests, and reviewed after that?

I don't watch any cricket other than the national team, so I wouldn’t know,
Is there a better opener than Warner for Australia? Move smith and select another first/second drop?

we seemed to do ok with khawaja and head as openers against India in the last test series, not sure on other openers who are performing well in Sheffield shield who could potentially open in the future

I heard the WTC may be a selection trial for Warner.. However, you may be closer to the mark CD..it seems more plausible..but check this out..

“Chief selector George Bailey has refused to guarantee that David Warner is a lock for the first Ashes Test in England, confirming the veteran opener will play the World Test Championship final against India.”

How long does this dud who’s clearly out of form get?? He’s 36 just fucking retire or the selectors grow a set and drop him.

Had to laugh though. Fox reported Warner had nfi atm with Delhi coz he's getting 50's at a run a ball and they're getting towelled.

Now that Candy has talked it up, now Fox are saying he's in great form with all these 50's.

U know, I'd last 10 mins as a cricket commentator. But they be a fckg stupendous 10 mins.....

Yeah fuck me dead it’s beyond a joke that Warner is still kicking. Hes scoring runs but can’t middle it on flat ones where 200+ is the norm.
