It is difficult times for Cameron White. Now officially a selector Twenty20, after checking Argus captains participate in the recommended format in each panel, white flies to South Africa Saturday need not only to select and to inspire young teammates, but also rotate around its own form.
When White went to the next week or two Twenty20, he knew that within ten days, he would go home again. Not part of the international team a day after losing his seat shortly after the World Cup, White has only two chances to do things on this trip.
And 'one of the five team members T20 - with David Hussey, Matthew Wade, Aaron Finch and Mitchell Marsh - leading to games at home in Johannesburg and Cape Town, does not require that the following three ODIs. Host does not count for half a century in his last 21 innings in both forms in Australia in October last year, White knows that he needs some runs on his belt to force his return to
"I play a day cricket," White said ESPNcricinfo this week. "This is the way it is. I am desperate to return to the game. Some of this notation will be hard Victoria, which is something to focus on when I return. "
Something he needs to focus on in the meantime, Australia T20 cricket recent poor record. They have won just one of their last eight matches in the format, and one of four, when White took the time to complete Captain January.
The approval of this crisis around South Africa at home will not be easy, but like Australia, South Africa has appointed a team with some new faces. Jacques Kallis and Dale Steyn were rested, while AB de Villiers is due to a broken finger and Albie Morkel has been ruled by a torn abdominal muscle.
"They are very heavy losses to them," says White. "I'm pretty random players and big losses. But undoubtedly have a strong country, and have a very good place."
Australia, knows all about finding a replacement. Brad Haddin recently retired T20 international pressure, in combination with the broken finger of Tim, who proudly presents Victoria wicketkeeper Wade, while the season-ending shoulder injury to all-rounder John Hastings, Mitchell Marsh received his first national call-ups.
Shaun Marsh and his brother will become the second set of brothers to play international T20 Australia, after Michael and David Hussey. Mitchell Marsh has shown promising signs in recent years in Australia, a series of Zimbabwe and Shaun said playing with his brother would be a wonderful experience.
"Clearly, when Mitch got back it was a proud moment for us and for the whole family," Shaun Marsh said. "He deserves his chance. It worked really well in the Australia A tour to South Africa earlier this year and we hope to get a game together and do good. "
Remarkably, at 19 Mitchell Marsh is the youngest member of the team, with 18 years of fast bowler Patrick Cummins also in line for his international debut. But perhaps the most exciting part of the construction of Australia to South Africa was as breathtaking Twenty20 opener David Warner.
Warner will join the team in India, where he played for New South Wales in the Champions League T20 in his last two entries in the tournament, scored 135 not a 123 undefeated. This is on top of a double-hundred and 152 he has done for Australia A in July.
The first Twenty20 will be played at Newlands on Thursday before the teams head to the Wanderers for the second game on Sunday.
