Test Match Special · Matthew Hayden’s damning thoughts on Australia World Cup exit · 18 Feb 2026 podcast

In the conditions yesterday, he could have been absolutely crucial because having got 104 in 8.3 overs and then to lose 10 wickets for 77.

And you've got Cam Green, who just doesn't look in great nick with the bat.

But Tim David... He doesn't look in any nick with the bat.

Well, you've drawn a very worthy parallel with England and the Ashes, and I think, for example, Shoaib Bashir, who is groomed to be the spinner, ended up not playing.

Will Jacks is then ending up as a part-time off-spinner, batting at eight.

At best, part-time spinner.

Oh, at absolute best.

And then we've got a similar thing here, where Josh Hazlewood is unavailable.

He goes out of the team, and they go...

Right, we're going to replace him with Steve Smith.

They can't think of a less like for like.

I'm not saying Steve Smith shouldn't have been selected, but it hints at a confusion at the heart of what's going on.

So the question I want to ask here is because you'll know more about this than we do in England.

Is this just one of those things that happens to a team where it's a transition?

So some guys aren't there.

There's no Cummins, there's no Hazlewood, nuts through injury.

Stark's retired.

Is this a transition thing, those kind of like growing pains of creating a new side?

And sometimes selectors get a little bit confused, try different people.

doesn't quite work out, but give it 12 months and they'll alight on the right solution?
