Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ??

[ElwoodBlues1]

I think fitness is probably the only thing we get right.
The comments were more about
A - our lack of penetration from our opening bowlers
And
B - they both commented on the strength of their first class cricket system, while ours has been ignored by CA and gone backwards

A: Our bowlers need pace and bounce out of the wicket, none of them really move the ball in the air or off the wicket to any great degree.
We dont have a genuine swing bowler who can swing the new ball or reverse the old one, Starc has the odd day where he does but not enough of them.
Hazlewood hardly moves the ball and Cummins is an effort bowler....
Unlike other countries we manufacture wickets to deny our own bowlers....

B: Short format game has ruined Shield cricket...too many park cricketers with poor techniques who cant transition to the longer format game.....Warner is one of the few who did.
