Haha I looked at the county highlights to see if he was bowling meds, was dismayed that he wasn't, and didn't even notice he was sending down offies rather than leggies!Marnus is apparently now also bowling offspin.

Nicewas dismayed that he wasn't
Boland is a very fine bowler
He’s a quicker, more skilful Robinson with heart
Dude Ollie is a ****ing good bowler man, don't force him to make you eat your hat.Look at the 2nd test in NZ
Going got tough & he wilted as usual
Archer & Wood are significantly better
My statement was clearly conditional, not absoluteAmazing how a guy who has no use at all in test cricket can still manage to average 21 after 16 tests
Your statement was clearly formed from a couple of Tests in Australia where as usual England completely ****ed up the selection. There is no fitness issue.My statement was clearly conditional, not absolute
He has improved a lot. He has gone on record admitting how his fitness levels weren't good enough for international cricket for the last Ashes and did a lot of work on it.How Robinson goes largely depends on whether he really has improved his fitness significantly or not. I didn't see any of his bowling in the Pakistan series so really can't make a call either way as to if that has happened
Was well below par in that aspect last I saw of him, a bowler who can bowl one good spell and then be gassed for the rest of the game really is not much use at all in Test cricket
Bowling way outside the leg stump and somehow umpire giving them.Haha I looked at the county highlights to see if he was bowling meds, was dismayed that he wasn't, and didn't even notice he was sending down offies rather than leggies!
If that ain't asking for trouble!!!!!!!Your statement was clearly formed from a couple of Tests in Australia where as usual England completely ****ed up the selection. There is no fitness issue.
Hazlewood - Not fit
Boland - Never bowled in England
Starc - Not that great in England
Neser - County trundler
Green - Never bowled in England
Australia are really one Cummins injury away from a pretty significant bowling crisis.
english conditions, robinson is one of the best test bowlers - ever.Dude Ollie is a ****ing good bowler man, don't force him to make you eat your hat.
Given neser's trundling in county, Abbott will be on standby i imagine, given his all round form and brilliance lately.Your statement was clearly formed from a couple of Tests in Australia where as usual England completely ****ed up the selection. There is no fitness issue.

Yeah, I only said he'd not bowled in England before. I do fear those loopy wide half volleys are going to keep on getting edged into the slips. He seems to have a bit of a knack.Don't ignore Green. Could be very useful.
Why are you writing neser off as a "county trundler"? He's bowled well in the test's hes got so far, is coming off a career best shield season, has done well in the uk for 2 seasons straight with glamorgan and by all accounts was tougher then haze and cummins to face in the nexts when we last toured ENG, where haze and cummins both took a bag full @20. If he plays a game with the duke's he should be a threat.Yeah, I only said he'd not bowled in England before.

Well he's got more experience in England than Boland anyway.Why are you writing neser off as a "county trundler"?

Have you seen the Labuschagne lbw? An embarrassing decision.neser today returns even mahhnus outshone him LOL
Fellow Aussie Michael Neser opened the bowling in his return to the competition, picking up the wicket of former England representative Scott Borthwick to finish with 1-55 from 19 overs.
Labuschagne's tweakers (2-73 from 15 overs) proved invaluable, albeit a little expensive
