Leach is surely the spinner? He is more than fine. Robinson is fine as backup and if all those quicks are fit in a year I might be a chance with Margot Robbie

Leach I would pick if he's fit and over his health issues but baz likes to risk on younger players I wonder if they will push for Bashir.

on robinson i think hes a long way down the list purely because of fitness.

Robinson ironically would have been a handful on some of the pitches rolled out this summer I think. Much as everyone hates him he’s definitely a skilful bowler but he has to have some help to be effective.

And it’s not like he’s Vernon Philander who might be rendered a little bit toothless if there wasn’t much help, but was accurate enough that the batsmen couldn’t just belt him everywhere. Robinson could probably get belted around a bit if things got too flat like some Australian pitches of years gone by.

They are definitely on a much better track with Atkinson, Carse, Wood if fit and Potts.

They would be mad to pick Woakes unless they get served up an absolute billiard table with rain all around

I agree Robinson would be a handful if the ball moves but he struggles to bowl 20 + overs in a day and struggles to backup. When you already have wood who needs 'management' but is a much better strike weapon I doubt they risk Ollie unless he gets much fitter.

I doubt they pick woakes. Aust conditions don't suit him and the improvement in Atkinson's batting means they probably don't need him down the order.

TBF Brisbane are only chasing this if everyone contributes. Wood had to bat and bat well at some point.

Bryant needed to get them off to a flier. Heck he should be in for a surge now.
