Thread: Do you think Chris Rogers will be the best batsman for Australia in the Ashes?

He is a guy who has learned his trade through playing County Cricket so actually knows how to bat. My money is on him being the top run maker for Australia.

No. I think he will play the first test and that will be it.

He's having a good season but I think Michael Clarke will be their top run scorer (if he gets and stays fit) followed by Shane Watson and Phil Hughes.
Also, I think they will probably still go with Warner over Rogers at least to start with.

No I don't, what is to say he will even get a bat? The two batsman who are the regular openers are going to be available to pick from even if Warner probably shouldn't be picked given he will not have played for a while.

BTW he learnt his trade playing cricket in Australia and then to keep practising he has played a fair bit of county cricket. All he can claim from county cricket is getting more match practise in English conditions even if for most of his career the English county bowlers and most the ones who have represented England prior to 2007 have been pretty average.

Good option, but I feel Warner will have an angry crack and score plenty.

He dropped a good Root the other night

They have a player who name is Kill Hughes. He is better than any other player when it comes to playing at County Cricket. I see him as the next captain of Australia.

He can be dangerous for england as he has a lot of experience in these English conditions.

Him and Klinger should be the openers
