Brad's Vs David

In the Victorian Herald Sun today there is just a little tid bit about Haddin, Hodge and Hussey and who could be in the one day side.

They compare one day domestic records, where Hodge and Hussey tower above Haddin.

I think my love for Future PM Hussey is will known, and my hate for all players named Brad is equally well known.

This may come as a shock to you, but I think Brad Haddin should be playing in this one day series.

Brad managed to get into the Australian team last year, he did so by making a lot of runs quickly.

Then with injuries he found himself playing in India in the 7 match series that made no sense.

In that series his average of 66 in 4 games was only second to the man they called monkey.

He was on fire that series, while the other Brad made 59 runs in 7 matches at 9.

This is why Brad Haddin has been picked ahead of Brad Hodge in this series.

As for why Haddin has been picked ahead of Hussey it’s this simple, a) he is going to be a full time member of this side and this is good practice, and b) he made 200 runs at 66 in his last series so dropping him for a debutant, even one as God like as David Hussey is a big call.

When Gilly goes another batting slot will open up and the Future PM is the obvious choice for it.

If he doesn’t get picked then, and Bryce doesn’t get picked for a tour soon, I suggest all Victorians bum rush the Cricket Australia headquarters next to the G and burn that fu©ker down.

I have my pitch fork ready, but until then, chillax Victoria.
