Trevor Hohns
Trevor Victor Hohnsis a former Queensland and Australian cricketer who played in seven Tests in 1989 where debuted at the age of 34. Hohns's legspin was largely unheralded during the 1989 Ashes series, which among his wickets included deceiving England's Ian Botham in the fourth Test at Old Trafford, who was bowled for a duck after missing a charging hoick. Hohns also was a handy late-order batsman, often batting as high as number six for Queensland in Sheffield Shield cricket...
charter doubt future mind preparing
There's no doubt part of the charter that we have is preparing for the future and that's always in the back of our mind as well.
australian chance daniel experience good team test time
It will be a good test for Daniel and we think it is the right time to give him some experience and a chance to be a part of the Australian team environment.
bowling brad count cricket decision easy fair fast given glenn himself looking position quartet scores squad test together unlucky
Brad Hodge can count himself unlucky not to be included. It is fair to say that the (selectors) were looking for Brad to put together some really big scores in (domestic first-class) cricket to consolidate his position in the test squad but unfortunately that hasn't happened. The decision on the make-up of the fast bowling quartet was not an easy one, given that we are without Glenn McGrath for this series.
batting fill opened order positions various
He can fill various positions in the batting order as we've seen. He's opened for Queensland, and he can bat in the middle.

Despite its obvious challenges, I have certainly enjoyed the role and can only hope that my contribution has in some small way assisted Australian cricket.
ashes bowling judgment late
It's not too late (for Gillespie to be selected). He's only 30. It's up to him. He's got to be bowling how he was before the Ashes and we've got to make a judgment on that.
number slot team time
Martyn has had some time out of the team and we feel this is the right time to slot him back in at number four.
fit playing seriously
Now that he is fit and playing again, he is going to be seriously considered.
concern happens hundred moment obviously thrown
Obviously it's a concern to him, it's a concern to everybody, but he's not the only one at the moment either. It just so happens that Matthew's stats keep getting thrown up. That he hasn't scored a hundred in so many Tests.
consider fringe left logical peak player
He's been a fringe player for a long time. We consider that he's probably at his peak right now. He was the logical replacement for Damien once we left a batsman out of the squad.
considered cricket great guess matthew months move past time
I guess the past 12 months for Matthew in one-day cricket, even by his own admission, hasn't been great for him. We considered that it was now time to move on and try something else,
consider cricket essential fields type
He's the type of cricketer that we consider is essential for one-day cricket. He bats, bowls, and fields very, very well,
account bowling difficult lack
We have to take into account who may be bowling better at the time, and that's been difficult with a lack of games.
batting bill bowl field fits gives hopes include looking open players
We are looking to include players who can bat, bowl and field and Hopes fits that bill perfectly. He gives us another all-round option, and can open the batting if required.
