*Official* England in Australia (2 T20 & 7 ODIs)

Zaheer and Anderson can move it both ways, in the air and off the deck. Copeland doesn't have those tools as of yet.

More than happy to be proven wrong, and I'd rather him in the team than say Siddle, but he's not our great saviour.

Cameron >> Copes, aws.

Cameron tends to go for a few though doesn't he? Might be a risk ats.

EDIT: Although I realise everything to do with our bowling attack entails risks of one kind or another.

 

[Ruckus]

Cameron's pretty good as well, but he leaks too many runs. Having Cameron and Johnson in one team could be a nightmare. At least Copeland is extremely economical.

Tbh I've seen Copeland do all of those.

I haven't, and I'm quietly confident I've seen more of him than you.

Obviously you haven't.

 

[benchmark00]

Obviously you haven't.

I've faced him. So fair to say I've seen him reasonably close and not just on the Cricket Australia website.

Well it really doesn't bother me what you think, because I have seen him move it both ways, with both seam and swing.

In fact I would say Copeland has been a bit unlucky in the last 2 seasons as he has produced many balls that beat the bat. Certainly a better version of Clark.

Well not sure how Trent isn't the best bowler on the planet at the moment.

 

[Ausage]

Ugh double negative. Head hurts. Having a lie down.

When did you face him and what was the occasion?

 

[benchmark00]

Faced him a few times itbt. Will leave it at that.

 

[Ruckus]

How long ago though?

 

[Spikey]

benchmark00 has absolutely killed it in the past few posts. WAG.

("he's setting a new benchmark")

 

[benchmark00]

How long ago though?

Latest time was about 3-4 months ago.

Now or when Clark was one of the best bowlers in the world?

 

[Ruckus]

That's awesome man, was he bowling at you 100%? How hard was he to face?

 

[Nate]

????? Ok. I'm obviously not allowed to have an opinion of my own. What on earth is your problem?

I normally 100% agree on your analysis of cricketers... and I don't understand how from watching the video above you could call him a 'county trundler'.

 

[howardj]

Looking forward to tonight.

A good mid-week carrot.

 

[robelinda]

That was one video. Ive seen more than once in the flesh.

Agarkar made a test ton at Lords. One video.

Huh? When did I say he's one of the best bowlers in the world? I don't understand what you are trying to say here...
