Steven Smith confirmed as David Warner’s replacement at the top of the order. Cameron Green, who CA had previously indicated they see as the long term number 4 is confirmed as the new number 4.
Slightly bizarre that Smith moved up, seeing as he’s never opened in first class cricket. But he’s the best of the best so if anyone can make it work it’s him.
There’s no path to dropping back down the order either.
Bancroft snubbed again and if he has half a brain he’ll see there’s no future for him at Test level.
Renshaw the extra batsman replaces Marcus Harris.
Tests are at Adelaide and a day/night gig at Brisbane.
