How about injury? Because if that counts as a mitigating factor then I'm certainly happy to have Siddle in the squad.
However, it looks like Mark Cameron's unavailable, as this is only his fourth match of the season- the next will be the final, so if selected he'll have played 5 out of 11 matches, therefore not enough- which I think is fair.
About Ronchi- despite his batting which makes the headlines he is a pretty good 'keeper, but I think he needs to find more consistency with the bat. I'd really be equally happy to have either him or Hartley in the squad.
