Australia v India v Sri Lanka

Selecting Katich is never backwards

In the two years before he lost his contract/was sacked. He had scored the 2nd most runs of any batsman in the world prior to his sacking.

Shows just how pathetic his dismissal was.

[Ringo]

With Marsh still injured I heard an interesting suggestion which I think has merit. On a temporary basis move Hussey to opener and replace with Christian.  Would give additional bowling back up to through at India.

What does Clarke have to do with it? He is better than Katich.

  so be like
hussey
warner
khawaja
ponting
clarke
christian
haddin

I'll say it again, Ricky Ponting needs to bat at three. He is hopeless everywhere else.

From 1st December 2008 - 7th December 2010

Katich:
24 Matches, 45 innings, 1NO, 2096 runs, HS 122, Ave 47.63 4x 100 15x 50

Clarke:
25 Matches, 44 innings, 5NO, 1960 runs, HS 168, Ave 50.25 5x 100 10x 50

I personally would have preferred Katich over that same period and say Katich was the better bat. Clarke's average is inflated by his extra not outs, which is far easier for him to acquire because of how low he bats down the order.

I would have gone Kat over Clarke. I'd say Kat was/is the better bat.

[Master Q]

Katich was the best batsmen in the side last year. He not only scored runs, but stayed in for ages and became the backbone of the team.

Clarke is the sole reason your hero is no longer playing or did that escape your attention?

What's your point? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

I'm saying I would have preferred Kat? I don't understand your point in the slightest. No Clarke is not the sole reason either. You can't have one captain decide a player isn't playing anymore, all the selectors have to agree/CA agree to not give him another contract...
