Whatever happened to Copeland?

[uvelocity]

Lucky he had a whole season to get over it and still couldn't buy a wicket.

yea it was a crap season

Copeland did have to bowl against much tougher opposition than Siddle, Pattinson, Hilf etc did last summer, tbf

True. Siddle, Pattinson and Hilf all could have bowled against New South Wales.

Our talented batting line-up consisting of 7 bowlers would have destroyed them

 

[NUFAN]

ha that's only because Siddle and co. decided to get their act together. Has nothing to do with Copeland not being there. A fair comparison is the bowling attack with Copeland in SL, compared to the one prior to SL. Give me the former any day of the week.

How can you call it a career anyway, it's a mere cameo. It shows, and means, absolutely nothing.

He should be proud of his Test cameo. Lived the dream for a month or so.

Would a county team approach someone like him? He would be a handy player in county cricket I think, since his fielding his sharp, his batting is capable and his bowling would trouble many at that level particularly early in the year.

I still think of Matthews' horrible sweep shot during the Lyon 5er a lot.

I like how the one time last season we picked 4 bowlers, we still had the keeper batting at 6

Where did anyone talk about thoroughly outbowling anyone else?

I'm not really sure what the argument is here. It's probably a case where you can say, "Hey, well done selectors", judging by how Australia's attack performed without him, and how Copeland performed afterwards for his state.

I could have taken 20 wickets against that Indian lineup.

for all we know, if we stayed with copeland Kohli might not have scored a ton

If Watson was 50+ at the time of my nan coming on to bowl....

In the spirit of my sig, Rob should upload a video of all of Zaheer Khan's dismissals in that series
