Tremain yet another Aussie seamer to be picked but never to play. Presume they'll go with the first eleven names on that list.

Tremain has never looked like a test bowler to me. Then again, plenty of players have played that weren't good enough.


What has happened to Pattinson?

There's a couple of trigger words in there for Sussexpob.

Another rain ruined game in Australia. Is this the rainy season?

Whoo hooo! There's a series not lost.

That hasn't happened for a while.

Well done you Aussies!

Hope we win tomorrow and draw the T20i series.

Apparently he is treying to make a comeback as an all-rounder at number 7

Less than two hours to start.

Not on FTA.

Apparently the audience has dropped from a few million to less than 300k now it's on pay tv. And it's like Sky in the UK - to get the cricket, you have to pay $50 a month for 100 channels off dross that you won't watch.

To be honest, I'm amazed that Sky/Foxtel stay in business, given their model.

Aussies opt to bat. Starc replaces Behrendorf. Otherwise unchanged teams.

8 off the first over by Bhuvi.

Khaleel's pace has been a huge let down.

8 runs from Khaleel's over as well.

AUS 16/0 in 2.

No early wickets AUS 21/0 in 3 overs.
