Lol. Sounded as if one of the fielders was sledging the batsman by proxy there, pointing out how ordinary Huss is.

"Useless service, please Huss. Let's have another warm-up wicket." :laugh:

tbh, the talent isn't the most impressive part for me. Love how pro his bowling looks already, he's already bowling at a higher level of intensity than the blokes who've played 20+ Tests in the side. It's why I personally backed his selection for this Test too.
You can't bowl at a higher intensity than Siddle, it's just not possible, his heart is too big.

Would be quite happy if we experimented with a pace attack of Harris, Cummins and Copeland for the NZ series. Cummins is already a good bowler, and has suprised me with his consistency, but he still has some way to go (understandably given his age!). Could be a real gun soon though, and a worthy permanent replacement for Harris when eventually bows out.

Only worry about Cummins for mine is he can't have been bowling this well in domestic cricket or he wouldn't have 9 @ 40. I'm going to be Mr. Fence Sitter and wait for a few games before declaring he is definitely ready.

When did he make his FC debut? I understand he ran into a rampant Katman in one of those FC matches. Ouch.

His figures are deflated by playing in the waste of time that is the Shield final. NSW were the away team = bowling 200 overs

Fyi, in the 2nd match North said the spell to him was one of the toughest he's faced

His performance with Copeland in the Shield final was epic. I will never doubt the ticker Cummins must have to be pushed that hard.
