Four-Test legspinner Mitchell Swepson says it "sucks" seeing Australian Test selectors overlook front-line tweakers, urging curators and officials to buck the growing trend of producing pitches that heavily favour seam bowlers.
Australia are without a specialist spinner at the SCG for the first time in 138 years after Nathan Lyon's injury replacement Todd Murphy was left out of the Ashes series finale.
It is the fourth time Australia have opted against playing a tweaker in their past six Tests.
