Questions for Hilditch, but he's not talking

Australia’s chairman of selectors Andrew Hilditch needs to be prepared to explain the selection panel’s sometimes baffling decisions, according to Will Swanton in the Sun-Herald. And Swanton believes in taking a couple of questions at the SCG when Australia’s Test squad for Brisbane was announced, Hilditch failed to offer any insight.

The guts of it was that Australia was embarking on an important lead-up to the Ashes. He said selectors sometimes get it right and sometimes they get it wrong.

Is that really enough? Wasn't it bleeding obvious that playing White as the first-choice spinner for three Tests was going to end in tears? The Sun-Herald wanted a forum away from the TV cameras to ask Hilditch about India. About Cameron White. About no Jason Krejza until the last Test. About Cameron White. About claims Beau Casson was hung out to dry because left-arm spin was not wanted in India. About Cameron White. About Stuart Clark being relieved of his services for no apparent reason. About Cameron White.

No talkies.
