I'd rather pick the 4 best bowlers than have Christian at 8 just to face 3 balls. Hogg is a good enough bat for that sort of thing. I'm okay with carrying White to a point, but I'm kinda hoping Hussey comes back if White doesn't score today. I've actually been more worried that Mike Hussey was looking scratchy at number 3.
Bias tells me Dave should be in for White, but measuring the side up, I'd have to give him the nod over Christian. In saying that, Christian will probably lead us to victory so wtf do I know.
The Irish usually arrive with a fair bit of tension in the rugby and international rules games, so I expect we'll be facing a pretty fiery side tonight. Not to mention we're ---- at T20s.
