Hilfenhaus has never had a record anywhere near Copeland's ever.Yeah let's not get too excited about Copeland yet. Hilf looked awesome and was taking bags before he entered the CA Fail Factory so we'll see what's left of Copeland to spit out once he's been in the set-up for a while.
Yeah, I'm very bearish about his prospects, though undoubtedly hopeful.Can't see it. Reckon he'll get pumped at Test level.
If Copeland is asked to pull his length back so he can keep the runs down to compliment high economy rates of Siddle and Johnson then that's exactly what he would have to do.I'd say that Copeland bowls a bit fuller than Hilfenhaus myself tbh.
More and more players are coming and voicing their opinions against the flawed Australian cricket administration which probably means Hilditch and his buddies days might be numbered.Australia in Sri Lanka 2011: Test players picked from anywhere, Cameron White believes | Cricket News | Sri Lanka v Australia | ESPN Cricinfo
also, ctrl f: Hauritz. Not Found. **** CA.
What my point is that in a bowling attack everyone should be allowed to bowl to their strengths which has not been happening in Australian team for a while now, Hilfenhaus as a swing bowler should have the freedom to attack by bowling a fuller length even if that means going for a few runs, Hauritz or any other spinner for that matter should be allowed to bowl with close-in fielders.when i think siddle i don't think high economy rate. i think his might be below hilf's even? certainly short **** outside off that doesn't make the batsman play doesn't go for many runs, and 80-90%% of time he's doing that (and hilf's doing that 100% of the time). And of course the other 10% he's actually a great bowler not going for runs because he's bowling so well.
Australia have included four uncapped players in their 15-man squad for the forthcoming Test series in Sri Lanka.

Your reputation as a poster probably won't recover from this point itbt.Just found out, He's in the T20 and ODI squads who play Sri Lanka before the Test series, they were named a few weeks ago. thought tests were played first. FAIL
