Australia has relied on the same few for too long and only given caps to people with little experience.
I’m worried after the next ashes. It will be an adjustment period

Re: Planning for future Pakistan and Afghanistan series
Pakistan will always lose one game per series to Zimbabwe. It doesn't matter the form or venue. But having said that, Pakistan are still one of the top 10 sides in the world across formats, so its virtually unlikely they'll lose more than 1 game.

Re: Planning for future Pakistan and Afghanistan series
The second-string side might be the stronger one, Pakistani selectors play the favourites game even more than the Zimbabwean selectors.

Old ramiz raja involved in the shenanigans play the fixing game even more than the t10 boys too. Guys like the elusive Mr X have decided the exact outcome of the series already yo.
