State: The Aztecs came in with three straight victories in | Forum

Australia will not make any changes to the team chosen for the Perth Test against South Africa, irrespective of the result over the final two days at the WACA Ground. Yohan Cabaye Jersey .The coach Darren Lehmann confirmed an unchanged squad for the Hobart Test, which starts from November 12, meaning guaranteed tenures for Mitchell Marsh, Peter Nevill and Adam Voges. Australia took a similar approach during the tour of Sri Lanka, making only the injury-enforced change of Jon Holland for Steve OKeefe for the second Test before introducing more drastic changes in the third.Lehmann reflected on how Australia had let the Perth Test get away, having made such a strong start on the first day and the second morning. He believed that the batsmen had not responded well to South Africas loss of Dale Steyn to a shoulder injury, which he had seen as an opportunity to take command of the match.We spoke about that, probably not playing their natural games at times, especially to the left-arm spinner getting the field back, Lehmann told ABC Radio. So we probably were a bit too timid at times and not looking to score and rotate the strike. Having said that they did bowl well, and we didnt counter it well enough.They do all the prep, theyre great young men, theyre trying to do as well as they can for Australia each and every time, its just a case of little mental lapses at times. Collectively were always pretty positive, but stats will show we havent batted as well as we would have liked the last few Test matches. Theres no hiding the fact weve got to bat better.Theres always pressure when youre coaching your country or playing for the country, thats why the guys have got to where theyve got to. Theyve been brilliant doing all the work behind the scenes and playing at the level below, now theyve got to do it at this level. Theres always pressure whether you win or lose, a lot less when youre winning. Olivier Giroud France Jersey .
