Murphy as it should be

Only bowled 17 overs got 1 wicket and can't bat.

Head and Connolly can do that workload.

Webster can also bowl a bit of spin as well if needed

Connolly had played a grand total of 4 FC games. Has an ok average (61), but other than that he's largely an unknown in the long game.

I wish him all the best but are we going to see a continuation of players without FC experience?

If he's serious about being a test batsman, he should do a full shield season then get a gig in England over winter.

He has also bowled 96 FC deliveries for 0 wickets. Listening to some comments from steve smith, it sounds like they want another left arm orthodox spinner to compliment Kuhnemann

Hate to see how bad their opponents were...

This could be the next generation of Australian cricketers with backgrounds from the subcontinent (we're pretty much the last cricket nation to get on board with this):

 

[Bulldog1966]

Bit of chopping and changing going on that's for sure.
I rate this kid but i get it he is indeed fairly raw in the long form, let's see how he goes personally I wish him well.
Dont know a lot about his bowling ability he certainly can bat but against spin we shall see, toss crucial again probably?

 

[DoggiesBoy]

Damn, sri lanka batting first. Connolly in for Murphy

 

[chemdog]

Damn, sri lanka batting first. Connolly in for Murphy

need some early wickets or it'll be a long couple of days in the field

Get the debutante on, Chandimal is a key wicket, the kid bowling to a right hander suits
