"It is curious that of Australia's top seven, only Ricky Ponting and Hughes are not regulars in the national Twenty20 side, yet of England's, only Kevin Pietersen and Paul Collingwood are."
This is exactly the sort of criticism that used to be leveled at England when they were in selection turmoil, and it used to be lauded as one of Australia's strengths, the fact they played the same team in all forms of the game. So now the tune has changed and you can't play T20 and Test cricket and be successful, and with England T20 champions and in the box seat to retain the Ashes the boot really is on the other foot.
