At every level of serious cricket, teams are picked on form and the best side is chosen. No one gets dropped just to have a rest.
And this, after all, is Test cricket. It takes years to get there and your selection is safe when you do all that is asked of you in the previous games. Even when you have a lean trot, you are retained for a time once you have made the grade.
The selectors have been unfair to Test cricket, Mitchell Starc and the fans who pay and love to watch the best in the world.
Will the selectors have the guts to reverse this ill-judged decision and return to picking sides based on commitment to playing for Australia?

THE rotating of Test bowlers is Australian cricket's global warming -the attempt to influence the future by punishing the present.
