Oz media says selectors 'hold key' for team to 'bounce back' in return Ashes

The Australian media has claimed that selectors would hold the key for Australia's chances to bounce back in the return Ashes series.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Pat Howard has identified eight fast bowlers whose workloads will be monitored at state level leading into the Ashes.

The report said that including Ashton Agar instead of the experienced Nathan Lyon in the England Ashes was a big mistake.

The likes of James Sutherland, Howard, John Inverarity, and the Australian captain and coach are responsible for righting a ship that has been floundering embarrassingly on the international scene for far too long, the report added.
