Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ??

[laj]

I like both Sayers and Behrendorff but both have been injured and the latter is injury prone.....
Hazlewood bowls a lot of no play balls.....one of the reason Bumrah has been successful is he is at the stumps and even when he isnt you are not sure if the ball is coming back in or not.
I think with Hazlewood you can play him on line alone as he doesnt get much movement so anything not on the stumps is just going to be let go...he bowls a lot of maiden's  and is economical but for me thats because the batsman are letting the ball go so often..I probably prefer Pattinson for that reason as he swings the ball away, is more proactive with his attack on the batsman and is looking to take take wickets rather than fustrate batsman. Players like Pujara need bowling out rather than waiting for a bad shot and I feel Hazlewood bowls for the bad shot only.....

Yes, I'd like to see Cummins, Pattinson and J.Richardson. Pattinson swings it at pace and attacks while Richardson is a bowler that skids on at 145k. Gives us a point of difference between each bowler. Starc can have his great moments but can't always apply pressure. Hazelwood isn't doing quite enough and hasn't for a couple of series. Cummins and Pattinson are very close to being all rounders, Pattinson's batting Test average is 27.6 from 17 Tests. One benefit of alot of injury, you have way more time to work on your batting.
