""It is time for some fresh thinking, just as it is for our Test team to welcome some new faces as we build for the future," Marsh said"

Wouldn't that be nice.
And they name Trevor Hohns as the new Chairman of selectors .He's been around since Adam was a boy and did the job 10 years ago ??

Interim chairman, I believe... while they search for a new permanent chairman...

And to be fair, he presided over one of the most successful periods in Aussie cricket history... part of which was completely down to the caliber of players available, but hey, someone has to pick the team  :D

Wholesale changes for the last test. I suppose they wanted to play a few Vics before Steve Waugh is appointed chairman and stops any other Victorian playing again.

dale had to run 50 metres to get to the ball, and still only could reach it with one hand, full stretch... :)

dyson's was still a great catch, though...  :cup:

smith's catch was excellent, but duminy's catch in the test series was similar, but didn't have aussie commentators (looking in slater's direction) jizzing themselves...

Got a funny feeling that Lyon may have a big influence on this test!?

Is spinning that ball very well!!
