Test Who will be in the next overseas Aussie Ashes test team?

[Wormkilla]

This team is ageing and it’s concerning there’s not too much young talent coming through with the bat and spin. Who out of the current set up and in domestic cricket is going to be there you reckon?

9 of the top 10 current shield scorers are/will be 30+ by the time it comes around.

Just off the top of my head…

Gone/probably gone: Warner, Lyon, Starc, Khawaja, Smith, Cummins, Hazlewood

Possible ins: Hardie, Inglis, McSweeney, Green, Morris, Oliver Davies, Harry Dixon?

Surely you don't mean Chis Green?

Would add as possibles - Murphy and O’Neil

Cam cob

 

[Westend]

Jhye and Young Puck will there hopefully fingers crossed when they are both fit Inglis the keeper and don't discount young Perry as the swing bowler for English conditions

Hopefully both of the first two. Would be great for us

 

[The 747]

Impressive, there seems to be an equal balance between WA cricketers listed and those from the wilderness outside WA.

Very hard to say this far out with so many projected retirements.

 

[serial_thrilla]

Cummins is only 30. He'll still be there.


Bancroft
Renshaw/Hunt
Pucovski/Davies/Wyllie
Labuschagne
Head
Green
Inglis
Cummins
J. Richardson
Morris/Johnson
Murphy

tbh the hardest one to replace is Smith. Puc is so important for us.

Bolded are the hardest to pick. I suspect quick #3 will be a left armer of some sort. I doubt Johnson will be going around in four years.

I'd have Richardson/Morris as alternates.

Bancroft I highly doubt will be going around in four years, they don't want to pick him now.

Inglis is not a fait accompli as keeper either.

 

[Black Diamond]

I am not in a rush to retire any of the current fast bowlers.I would not rule out at least two of them still being in the mix.

 

[ioppolo]

Pucovski shouldn't even have his name being thrown around right now. Has just come back to shield cricket and is struggling to string runs together. Let the guy just play for a bit.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Only one of the quicks still there would be Cummins. On tour may get joined by Morris, Spencer Johnson, J. Richardson, Xavier Bartlett, Last 3 well suited by English condition. Lyon will be good for one more. No issue with bowling. Batting though, no Ussie, Smith. 3 years is a long time so too hard to say who'll be in there replacing them as so much can change. Could be someone we haven't even seen at FC level yet. Not as "easy" as it is with the bowlers with no-one knocking down the door.

England won't have Anderson and Wood, and possibly Root. Their issue could well be bowling.

 

[ioppolo]

And just like that he's out of international selection for good.

McSweeney

Marsh
Carey
Cummins
Lyon
Bartlett
Buckingham

Inglis
Morris
Davies
Murphy
Labuschagne

I've left the opener spots open because no one, absolutely no one deserves to be named at this point. Renshaw is young enough but who knows? Bancroft will be 34, so who knows?

Bangers still young enough also Maddison keep a watch on ...if he finishes off the shield well and has a good shield season next year..he is batting well atm

3 years down the track though. Could be there or could be retired. If he is still going then, then I'd have him in, form pending.

I don't think Pucovski will play again TBH.

 

[Cat Pummins]

I hope Jordan Buckingham keeps developing like he has the past two seasons, he could be an absolute handful in English conditions.

no Marsh ?!?

 

[The 747]

no Marsh ?!?

If he was fit I'd be taking him to England. Good in English conditions and it suits his bowling.

14. Jhye Richardson (30) Never fit
15. Josh Inglis (32) Suspect they will pivot to a younger keeper by 2027
16. Oliver Davies (26)
17. Xavier Bartlett (28)

mitch marsh - surely not !!!!

we've seen off warner and now pensioned off marsh - next stop will probably be khawaja and maybe some of our quicks.

it's all good speculating and some good prospects have been mentioned.

if konstas, mcsweeney, connolly come on and inglis, murphy and even webster keep performing, we are in good hands of transitioning the side.

 

[kenneje]

1. Konstas
2. Hunt/Renshaw
3. Labuschagne
4. Green
5. Head
6. McSweeney
7. Inglis
8. Cummins
9. Richardson
10. Johnson
11. Murphy

It's so depressing thinking about Puc, he'd have been THE perfect addition.

 

[Spirit Level]

Hopefully Jhye can stay injury free now, he's an ideal bowler for English conditions IMO
