I guess he and his coaches thought he could get more out of his batting but pretty much dropping the bowling. It's understandable...rather an awesome batsman than an ok batsman, and an ok bowler...we don't want another Brandon Hiini. He does still bowl a bit thought.He's gonna be a star all right. I just hope he hasn't let his bowling completely go to seed. A couple of seasons ago he was being talked about as mainly a bowling all rounder, but by all accounts he's really a batsman who bowls a bit now, which is a bit of a shame.
The thing was by all accounts he was heading towards being much more than just an OK bowler. Anyone who can put the ball through at 138 km/h when they've just turned 16 has got something about them. But I agree that as a batsman he's made astonishing strides forward. And he's still only 17. He's already improved his batting to the point where he looks to be one of the better players in his first class outfit, so there's plenty of time for him to return to his bowling in the future.I guess he and his coaches thought he could get more out of his batting but pretty much dropping the bowling.
