Anyone who watches European cricket will recognise this camera angle.

A rooster one day a feather duster the next. Trav out for 0.

Good first up win in T20 vs England. We should of scored over 200 but the tail failed.

Oz lost the second T20 match. Trav a quickfire 31, Fraser-McGurk a good 50.
England 7/194 (19.0) Australia 6/193 (20.0)

Not sure what the point is of playing Cooper Connolly in these games.
He's had a Pikky Ya France'esque role in his two games.

I don't know anything about him. What has he done to justify a spot in the team. Maybe because a few name players missing.

I assume it has to be partly because of that.
He was captain of the U/19 team and still only 21. Probably most famous for hitting 25 off 11 in the BBL in the partnership that won Perth the final the season before last. He's been 'OK' as a late order smasher since. He made his first class debut in the shield final for WA and hit a pretty brisk 90, which seems to have been enough to confirm to the selectors that the hype was real.
No real problem with him being selected for a tour like this. But I'm not sure about having him batting at 9 as a part time bowler at best.
One thing CA does occasionally is pick a player they think will make it and give them games.
I don't mind it as a strategy
Good to see Fraser get some runs
It's a nothing competition, with a lot of the senior players sitting it out. The selectors are looking forward to the next round of T20 & ODI World Cups, when many of the veterans will be gone and replacements needed. They're starting the winnowing process, having a look at the options available.

My main issue is that there's no reason to shield him from batting. Just chuck him in at 7 and see how it goes.
There's plenty of Australians in England currently anyway. They might unearth the next Shaun Young
