<p>It's awful rude that Punter and Clarke were pretty much allowed to pick themselves as fit for Ashes test matches when they were obviously injured.</p>Tony commented on 'ADVANCE AUSTRALIA WHERE?'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341cb34453ef014e5f21f099970c2011-02-10T20:44:00Z2011-02-10T20:44:00ZTonyhttp://aftergrogblog.blogs.com/cricket/I shall be using the term FIGJAMODI less liberally, but I shall still use it.

<p>Selectors pick 2 keepers for a world cup squad. No other country has because you don't need to - just take a reserve to swap in if required.</p>
<p>Now, ordinarily M Hussey would go and Ferguson would go as a reserve, in case Mr Cricket didn't come good - which you'd know in a weeks time anyway. Worst case is Hussey doesn't recover and Ferguson misses 2 warm-up games and maybe a game against Zim.</p>
<p>But, as the team is a batsmen down due to the double keepers, the selectors panic and decide they can't risk playing our top ranked odi batsman and that Ferguson simply must play some meaningless warm-up games.</p>
<p>I'd be lying if I said I'm surprised by this selection nonsense.</p>m0nty commented on 'ADVANCE AUSTRALIA WHERE?'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341cb34453ef014e5f1f1a3b970c2011-02-10T12:12:17Z2011-02-10T12:12:17Zm0ntyhttp://www.fanfooty.com.au/blogI shall be using the term JAMODI liberally.<p>I shall be using the term JAMODI liberally.</p>Lou commented on 'ADVANCE AUSTRALIA WHERE?'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341cb34453ef014e5f1dcdda970c2011-02-10T08:05:35Z2011-02-10T08:05:35ZLouI don't agree with him about Haddin.
