Unfortunately there is a lack of accountability from top to bottom which is kind of showing up in the performances as well. I love sky commentators but they are too chummy with Key and so tough questions are not being asked. Same thing is happening with Baz now where there is very little scrutiny of the decisions being made.
Just for example in India they had a dead rubber after losing the ODI series 2-0 but they played the first team. Even Mark Wood for some inexplicable reason played the 3rd game while Rehan carried the drinks. In the t20 series before that again the last game was a dead rubber in which both Joff & wood played while Saqib who had come in for the 4th game & taken 3 wickets was put on the bench. Rehan once again carried drinks all through. Then in the dead rubber against South Africa here they once again kept Banton & Rehan on the bench whilst letting livingstone slog with no care in the 20th over.
Without accountability for decisions there can never be a culture of winning
Yep you are right, the squad needs a refresh going forward.
