Philander is swing bowler like Anderson and Steyn, whereas Broad is better at using the pitch. He was the only one in UAE who was regularly getting wickets by seaming the ball.
it's a bit difficult to say, because really, we're basing it off 1-2 good years/7-10 good matchesBtw I don't think it's conclusive at this point that Philander is a better bowler than Broad. Can certainly understand, or expect, that it would be a majority opinion, but to state it as an unarguable fact is wrong, IMO.
Philander's best asset is the movement he gets off the pitch tbh.Philander is swing bowler like Anderson and Steyn, whereas Broad is better at using the pitch. He was the only one in UAE who was regularly getting wickets by seaming the ball.
Na he's a seam bowler, almost exclusively.Philander is swing bowler like Anderson and Steyn, whereas Broad is better at using the pitch. He was the only one in UAE who was regularly getting wickets by seaming the ball.
Interestingly, September of the same year marked the third in a row I'd been to the SCG on grand final day to watch the Eels towel a hapless Manly outfit. Was a historic day in Australian sporting history as Bob Hawke addressed the crowd. He remains to this day the only politician I've ever heard get a unanimous ovation at an Australian sporting event.History of wanting to leave venues early I see.
Must be a result of you being an Eels supporter. Always wanting to go at half time.
such a top bloke. If there was one success story I would like to see come to fruition for the Aus team over the next few years, it would be Phil Hughes.phil hughes yet to be seen without a hat on his head.
frankly he seems like a moody ****such a top bloke. If there was one success story I would like to see come to fruition for the Aus team over the next few years, it would be Phil Hughes.
Reckon he's just a bit reserved. It's not a bad thing but it's pretty typical of country people.frankly he seems like a moody ****
which means he seems like my kinda guy
Think it's fair to say The Prince has very little country left in him...Reckon he's just a bit reserved. It's not a bad thing but it's pretty typical of country people.

Cribbage to explain.explanation?
That's the first time I've seen a (Test) scorecard in which every single player in a side had a bowl. ABdV even got two wickets, wtf.1st Test: Australia v England at Brisbane, Nov 25-29, 2010 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo
4th Test: West Indies v South Africa at St John's, Apr 29-May 3, 2005 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo
and clarke are the only times its even happened in a match.
Ftr if Philander is a swing bowler so was mcgrath.
One of Broad's best assets IMOYeah Philander is more of a seam bowler than Broad tbh, who is a more "mixed" bowler who tends to change his MO a bit depending on conditions
He's seriously decent. I'm really surprised they're his only First Class wickets, although I suppose he's done his fair share of wicket keeping, and South African domestic cricket isn't exactly short of batsmen who bowl useful seamers.That's the first time I've seen a (Test) scorecard in which every single player in a side had a bowl.

For sure, except when his MO becomes "completely lose your run up and bowl 10kmh slower than you really should be" which is what seems to have happened increasingly this 'summer'One of Broad's best assets IMO
