Double standards of resting players

Allan Border, a Cricket Australia director, has spoken out about the resting of players after Adam Gilchrist’s decision to miss the final game of the Chappell-Hadlee Series, reports Jon Pierik in the Herald Sun

"We have guys signing up for Twenty20 cricket in the Indian Premier League," Border said. "I know it's big money and they are professional cricketers, but they won't be rotated out of that, will they?"

Stuart Clark tells the Courier-Mail of his disappointment at being dropped from the one-day team.

AAP reports Andrew Hilditch, the chairman of selectors, is not satisfied with the performances of Dan Cullen and Cullen Bailey, the South Australia spinners, since they were handed national contracts in May.
