After the big pay dispute has finally been resolved, there are some interesting selections for Bangladesh.

O'Keefe has been left out , despite taking a lot of wickets in the Indian series. I'm not sure whether this is due to form, or off field issues?

The fast bowling combo of Starc, Hazlewood, Pattinson and  Cummins, seems destined never to play aTest together, because of injury. Pattinson has again been ruled out because of back soreness.

Cartwright is being touted as an all rounder but he is clearly a better batsman. He has a healthy first class batting average of 44 (but thats only after two seasons).

His bowling average is only 40 by comparison. I don't think he's any better with the ball than some of our older part time bowlers like Greg Blewett or Damien Martyn.
