Once considered a great Australian all-round prospect, Nathan Coulter-Nile has since fallen back to “bowling prospect”, to “one-day star”, and is now starting to fall off the selectors' map.

Not selected at all for the odi series in Sri Lanka, Coulter-Nile has not made an impression with ball (or bat for that matter) in his latest matches, and at 28, he does not want to be behind the eight ball going forward.

Formerly described by the Australian selectors as “one of the best fieldsmen in the country” much more was expected from this guy than was delivered. It may now be that his time is over.
