Australia cricket coach Mickey Arthur has taken to Twitter to hit back at critics following the national side's humiliation against Sri Lanka.

The knives are very much out following the Aussies batsmen's capitulation on Friday, when they were bowled out for just 74 at the Gabba.

This once again raised questions about the controversial rotation policy - officially the "informed player management system" - that saw top batsmen Michael Clarke, David Warner and Matthew Wade miss the first two games of the ODI series.

After previously defending the much-talked-about policy in press conferences, South African Arthur thought he would go direct to the source on this occasion.

He started off by having a fair crack at the tendancy of some Aussie fans to focus on the negatives, before posting several tweets justifying the resting of certain players.

Arthur was also at pains to point out that Australia's policy is in line with much of the cricketing world, noting "our competitors manage their major players as well!"

He also retweeted a message sent to him which pointed out star England players Jonathan Trott, James Anderson and Graeme Swann aren't taking part in the one-day series in India at the moment.
