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

They're smashing Australia today, it's been a rout.
They are bringing a second string side to Zimbabwe.

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.

The second-string side might be the stronger one, Pakistani selectors play the favourites game even more than the Zimbabwean selectors.

Are Craig and Sean really going to be around in 2027 for the fifty over Word Cup?

Sean will be 41 and Craig 42. Does it make sense to carry on playing them?
I think yes. They still seem better than the othrs, so why not! it is a great send off.
