Former wicketkeeper Ian Healy says Test coach Andrew McDonald is “in the gun” after Australia’s series defeat in South Africa, which he believes should cost chief selector George Bailey his job.
Former Australian wicketkeeper Ian Healy has called for chief selector George Bailey to be replaced following Australia's Test series loss in South Africa. Healy also argued that head coach Andrew McDonald is under pressure and suggested Cricket Australia should inquire about appointing Ricky Ponting if performances do not improve ahead of upcoming tours.
Australia lost the series after being bowled out for 111 on the final day of the third Test, drawing scrutiny over squad balance and tactics. Healy criticized selections made by Bailey, McDonald, and co-selector Tony Dodemaide, specifically questioning the inclusion of Nic Maddinson in the touring squad.
