They can bowl fast and short pitched to get Poms out.
Simple Plan A
Starc/Haze goes bing! Baz goes swing, and the deep outfielder e.g. Smudge runs into takes the caaatch! AS shown in the picture.

Smith has struggled recently in the 3rd innings by his high standards ..
3 50's and 0 100's in his last 20 tests
If you consider 2014-2017 to be prime Steven Smith ..
He had 7 50's and 3 test hundreds in that 20 test period in the 3rd innings

Head > Labu's leggies > Labu's meds > Smith's leggies >>> Labu's offies > Smith's offies.
This is the definitive ranking.
Smith and Marnus both ****ing suck at bowling offies unless they have to for a single delivery in a white ball game to get a left-hander off strike and bowl leggies again. I hate seeing them doing it.

nah wtf Smith's leggies are way better than marnus's. Smith was originally picked as a bowler, and his figures are better.

Love it. Massively surprised you didn't chuck a > Wade at the end there – his meds were rancid.

Australia picked him as a dressing room clown with some potential batting 8 and acting as the fifth bowler when he was averaging 50+ with bat and ball in Shield cricket. His 'bowler' phrase is vastly over-stated due to the total prank role he was given.

Wade was about Robinson's pace wasn't he?
still much more of a bowler than marnus and a far better one at that

Actually a bit quicker the first time he came on to bowl, lol.

I'm sure they'll be willing to give England an exemption to bowl Thakur here.

That’s because bowling offies sucks in general

From an entertainment POV we should probably all be grateful England won both tosses, because in the two sessions they’ve had to bat in cloudy conditions they’ve lost a combined 8/60 odd - yesterdays debacle and that short session in the first test when they lost both openers before it rained.
