wait a sec, Jon Holland has been drafted into the 'A' team?! Kuhnemann should be ahead of him in the pecking order.

Kuhnemann is average.

Kuhnemann is average.

Holland was outbowled last season by Murphy, so he's not any better.

He's been drafted in because Kuhnemann is with the ODI squad

Well yeah, but that's why Kuhnemann wasn't picked.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Absolute disaster for Agar if the side strain keeps him out of the Tests. When else is he going to realistically get a gig?

Indian tour coming up.

Indian tour coming up.

Reckon he’s given a sucker an even break here if they perform and nail that second spinner spot here though. Could be a costly injury.

Yeah not good timing carbs for agar to get an injury but I still think they will go swepson over agar even if ash is fit for the first test.

Highly doubt it, honestly Sangha isn't ready and the rest are miles below. That said Agar in test cricket doesn't fill me with a lot of confidence, barely spins the thing.

Plenty of SLA spinners are like that. Herath, Vettori relied on subtle changes of angle and pace. Agar should try to emulate them.

Swepson probably keeps the second spinner spot now, though he’d want to do better than he did against Pakistan.

I'd play Kuhermann if Agar isn't fit overseas. Don't want Agar near a test side as the front line spinner. Sangha might be the one but he's a year or so away

Well known massive turner of the ball Matt Kuhnemann.

Honestly we are so rooted if Lyon goes down.

Swepson can't pitch the thing, Kuhermann is a rookie, least he tries to turn it though, and Agar/Zampa are ODI spinners.

Swepo i like and leg spin is hard, would be first to get a go imo, Agar has been touted as a chance but i'd honestly like Zampa, can land it, turn it and has good variation. He isn't limited.

Zampa has a woeful 4 day record. Honestly these host countries will be dumb to not give us Bunsen burners we have 1 spinner that's it. I'd honestly play Sangha in the last couple of ODI's and see just how far away he is.

Sangha i am a huge fan of, the next big thing imo.

Zampa hasn't really played much 4 day cricket lately, been in our T20/ODI squads all the time.

Agree whilst I don't want to rush Sangha and I had hoped Swepson would fill the role for 2 years or so, I'm not convinced. I know leggier are less accurate but he's all over the shop, lucky to pitch 2 in 6 anywhere near the area. Maybe Murphy might be the stop gap, who knows there I haven't seen much of him.

Isn't Sangha a limited overs specialist at the moment?!

Took 20-odd wickets in the Shield last season

Swepson has performed better than that

 

[Voice of the G]

Murphy hell naw.

Sorry a Murphy fan,only a kid but huge potential.
