Australia has named their 17 man West Indies and Ashes Test squad


Only 9 NSW players so we could be in trouble


Test squad

Michael Clarke (capt), Steven Smith (vice-capt), Fawad Ahmed, Brad Haddin, Josh Hazlewood, Ryan Harris (Ashes only), Mitchell Johnson, Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Marsh, Shaun Marsh, Peter Nevill, Chris Rogers, Peter Siddle, Mitchell Starc, Adam Voges, David Warner, Shane Watson.



FFS why do they keep picking Sean Marsh??? He is useless. And surely Siddle, great servant that he has been, is past it??


Thought there would have been a spot for Gurinder Sandhu and Pat Cumminns (both NSW players naturally ). However both are on the Australian A tour to India. Sandhu would have been great in England as being of Indian heritage, he'd have got a lot lot of those Indians that we hear the Poms moaning about, coming to the games to support the Aussies



Still on a bright note, we now have a wicket taking leggie back in the Test squad and even better, there is only one Queensland player in the squad and even he was born in NSW!!!




Go 'Straya!!!
