What a calamity Warner's injury has caused. It's gone from a likely bat off between Burns and Pucovski to a point where either could be hard to pick. Burns is making himself extremely difficult to endorse with not even a half decent innings under his belt this summer. Will has copped yet another head knock but reports are he is quite good at this stage.

Harris could well get in almost by default. He has however scored heaps of runs in the shield this season and got starts against India this match. Suddenly the likes of Shaun Marsh are being looked at as potential options as our opening cabinet is pretty average. I'd be loathe to move Marnus up given his recent brilliance. Bumrah is a challenge to the finest of batsman and he will be asking all sorts of questions come the 1st Test. It will be telling what team we roll out in the next tour match. Both opening places still very much up for grabs and they'd certainly be hoping for a Warner miracle.

Will they have the stones to pick Green? It would probably come at the expense of Wade or Head and with Warner likely out and worries at the top of the order could they do without that extra experience?
