In Quiney's defence, the likelihood of being on the receiving end of a lofted cover drive from Cowan can be measured in several orders of MegaUn****inglikelies (MUFll's). The real surprise is that he wasn't beaned whilst laying on the ground taking a mid-arvo kip.
Yeah I know you're not, that is the point.
I guarantee if they didn't bowl 140+ they wouldn't have been promoted that quickly. It's patently obvious that pace is valued proportionally higher than a lot of other qualities in the Australian scene. Of course, they have to have something else to them than just that, otherwise they could just be **** bowlers (Mitchell Johnson says hi), but it's like a prerequisite a lot of the time. Reckon the reasons Copeland got a go was only because of the sheer weight of his performances, the fact he kept performing well at exactly the right time and the relative lack of others options when he was selected. Disagree as well that Hazlewood would be more likely to take test wickets than Butterworth or Bird atm. Haven't seen enough of McDermott to comment.
Wait, are you suggesting that the selectors think that good bowling at high speed is harder to face than good bowling at slow speeds? Those ****s are out of control.
What part of "proportionally higher" don't you understand?
So that's what that smell is.
You're just talking garbage by saying Butterworth or McDermott are better prospects than Hazelwood. Sorry mate but it's absolute junk. And it came off the back of you also thinking David Hussey is stiff for missing selection.
