Complete waste of time as we knew it would be. Australia smash the shit out of yet another team at home.
Test Cricket alive and well? Tough to win when you send that many debutants... same as SA to NZ
There is the “Black Caps in decline” factor which should make that series more competitive.
But yes this Australian Summer is doing “Test” cricket absolutely no favours at all as a spectacle.

Australian Cricketing public will lap it up, they expect to smash everyone at home.

Might need another opener if The Waj got a knock on the chin.
Renshaw
Come on, give Bancroft a go!
How hilarious would it be to have Smith and Bancroft opening together

Haha not going to happen.
Although it maybe good viewing as I reckon both of them would be trying to run each other out.
Matt Renshaw for sure if they need another opener. -
@Chris could see a few hard straight drives by Bancroft “straight past the umpire”
Yeah I was only joking because if they were serious about Cam, they would’ve bought him in when Warner went.
Renshaw is already in the 13 man squad, so makes sense it would be him.

Anyone else think Cummins is a gutless wonder?
In what way?
Got the shits with his interview today. To my mind he effectively threw his team name (Maxwell) under the bus ("oh, I went home early ... didn't see anything ..."). Just comes across to me as Mr Teflon, smarmie and self important. Like this year's Tim Paine. Got the media gushing but to me he's a fake IMO.
What was that bullshit line they came up with post sandpaper? Elite ethics, or elite something.
