If Australia win you will have to put an asterisk next to it, the touring side will be as weak as anything.

It's a pretty weak aussie team is the only consolation

Labuschagne but I'm surprised you got that close. :D

Starc, Hazlewood, Cummins and Lyon will be the bowlers in Brisbane barring injury.
