Abstract
Australia's loss of the recent Ashes series brought widespread criticism of its Test selectors. This article offers a historical perspective on Australian selection and includes four case studies from the very first Test match of 1877 to the present day. What is revealed are not only sins of omission and commission but missed opportunities and factors such as mateship, bias, prejudice and politics which are evident in the selection process.
