Shane Warne: The captain runs the team and in conjunction with the selectors picks the team. The captain should always have final say. Ridiculous what’s happening. As I have always said the coach should not be a selector. He should communicate well with the players and help them prepare, that’s it.

Michael Vaughan: Didn’t realise you had to do an essay to get a selection these days. What I am confused by is that the coach of Australia asked the players for only 3 things to improve the team? Bowl better, Bat better, Catch better, communicate better... Just b****y play better.... I am now available for selection of Australia.
