Aust T20 side

Reports today that George Bailey is about to be named as the new Aust T20 captain. There is no doubt that ShyT deserves to be dropped but Bailey seems to be a strange choice.
While there is no doubting his leadership capabilities, his current form has been average & he is still recovering from shoulder surgery which is limiting his fielding.

While its still just a rumour at this stage, one wonders why Warner has been overlooked.

I thought George was ready to step into the Aus Test side in the middle order a couple of years back, but his form since has been fairly ordinary. I agree that he seems an odd left field choice, if the rumour is correct.

Form + t20 = meaningless

You can have Luke Wright if you like. I think his mum's cousin's nephews's brother-in-law was in the same room once when an episode of Neighbours was broadcast. That'll do.

Meh....he was outperformed by Shah.

Shah is shoite - just have him please

Is the T20 captain also a selector...or is Pup a T20 selector?

No T20 - no Hoggggggggyyyyyyyyyyy.

T20 squad: Bailey (c), Warner (vc), Birt, Christian, Doherty, Faulkner, Finch, Hogg, D Hussey, Lee, M Marsh, S Marsh, McKay, Wade

Well, BD's rumour was accurate. Gongrats to George, I hope he has success.

And WTF??? Hogggggyyyyyyyy!!!!!! is in?? Definite proof he should never have retired in the first place. On current form (cept Bog), looks a pretty good squad.

skully in confusing Test form for T20 form shocker

One of the papers this morning said White was a selector of the t20 side. So I wonder if they shitcanned him and then got Bailey on the phone for the rest of the meeting...

No Starc?

Did ShyT get to pick George ...or just get to drop himself?

Either way, it's hella funny.
