Agree but there are players playing in the BB who retain skills and a mental attitude that keep them ready for a call up. Unfortunately it isn't going to happen for him but Glen Maxwell is such a player.

Maxwell can take a test away from the opposition, just like Gilchrist used to. I think Green if given the license to, has the ability to do the same.
Yes, I understand that, but they need to sort out a fixture such that there are opportunities to play Shield games while the tests are on. Mid season break for BBL maybe?

And Cricket Aust are going to have to keep on their toes for years to come. Australia has to work out how best to "exploit" the rivers of money that will continue to grow as Indias GDP expands. Cricket cannot win a money war. But sport needs rivalries so we should make sure that we are Indias no 1 rivals (after Pakstan! But they rarely play) The ashes alone aren't enough.
And the crazy money from IPL is no more crazy than the money on offer in US sports and Euro major soccer leagues.
I'm convinced he's not as good a coach as his reputation suggests. He's very good at 'managing his brand'.
Mmmm..... One case who went to Day 2 . Think that would be enough for Vic govt to close the gates. But more relevant to us 10 weeks to Round 1, no guarantee we can all be there for flags unfurling.
I reckon everything should be in Melbourne in 2021.
Wimbledon, The Olympics, The Tour de France, The Super Bowl, The F.A Cup final, AFL interstate games, The Gabba Grand final.
I still feel Melbourne's pain of missing the premiership.
Finally at least at the 12th hour the NSW Gov has had the sense to mandate masks for the test.
Still I wouldn't be going. Could sit & watch a game of footy but no way I'd be at the Cricket all day in a mask with the number of cases they have.

Well said, I’m not convinced he’s managed young talent real well either, Im not sure the harder to get out of then get in mantra is the best idea
I don't think many batsmen have thrived under him as batting coach or head coach, Marnus and Smith may be the only 2.
Smith‘s bubble may have burst too.
I haven’t watched a lot of cricket in recent years , however imho so many of our batsman seem nervous and tentative at the crease and so often dismissed for what appears to be a lack of patience
Blocker Wilson and Pistol Reiffel stare dumbly for half an hour at a damp patch of grass you could cover with a thigh-pad before someone wonders if one of those leaf-blower things might help move things along. They're about a decade behind park cricket.
