Briony is just fishing.
Yeah there's an extent to which Hughes makes poor bowling look the absolute pits because he's so good on the cut. When anything remotely short outside off-stump goes the distance the margin for error is next to nothing.
Good junior participation, just about every kid in Australia would play cricket in the summer and their football code in winter.
Lack of experience hasn't hurt some of our guys to date.
(Insert lame NSW joke here)
Just you. Nothing mechanical about the way Amla bats...Two aesthetically ugly cricketers in the South Africa top six and they are the openers but neither of them are mechanical or have text book techniques. Completely individual, I mean no one would be taught to leave the ball like Neil Mac does…
Thing is, if you look at the Test bowling stats from the past 2 years, Steyn has been epic, but the rest of the attack is distinctly average.
Indeed. Ntini is in decline and has always been a bit one-dimensional anyway, Morkel's dreadfully inconsistent and Harris is Harris.
My major point, take out Steyn and the SA attack is nowhere near the world's best.
Yup, second that. Amla's a joy to watch.
Maybe five years ago....
That a big point, init? Of course if you are going to take the best fast bowler in the past two years out of the side it isn’t going to be the best.
