After scoring 478 runs at average of 95.6 in India, George Bailey is set for his Test debut in the Ashes series opener at the Gabba starting on Thursday week.
Team: Michael Clarke (capt), David Warner, Chris Rogers, Shane Watson, Steve Smith, George Bailey, Brad Haddin (wk), Mitchell Johnson, Peter Siddle, Ryan Harris, Nathan Lyon, James Faulkner.
MafiaBoy's verdict: Rubbish bowling team but better batting line-up than the English (on their day).
Oz team for the first test

"What happened to this match?"
If you actually knew anything about cricket you'd probably know that virtually every team that plays on this ground has a hard time beating Australia. But then, you don't know anything about cricket

I reckon this is a decently selected team from the pool of available talents. If the good Mitch turns up and if Harris remains fit, they can be contenders.

Too bad that the good Mitch showed up at the wrong time.
