Test 3:

Aussies call on Warne's recommendation and select Beer! Michael Beer, total of 5 first class matches with an average of 40 gets the call. Haurtiz has to be wondering wtf? North though finally got dropped. Smith is good with the bat so he gets to spin the ball and an attempt to score some runs.

12 man squad: Shane Watson, Phillip Hughes, Ricky Ponting (capt), Michael Clarke, Michael Hussey, Brad Haddin (wk), Steven Smith, Mitchell Johnson, Ryan Harris, Peter Siddle, Michael Beer, Ben Hilfenhaus.

Johnson will replace Bollinger who has been dropped.
One of Siddle or Hillfenhues(likely) will be the 3rd paceman.

Aussies in shambles, who would've thought that Harris would be the mainstay of the Aussie quicks after first 2 matches.

England still mum on Broad's replacement. England XI are playing a 3 day test vs Victoria and will likely pick the best bowler from there.

Tremlett and Shahzad havent leaked many runs but Bresnan has the wicket. Day 2 will likely determine who gets the spot.
