They are so concerned with banging it in just short of a length to dry up runs, they dont give it a chance to swing. Green hoops it all over the place for WA, then pulls on the baggy green and is gun barrell straight.... im sure thats due to following the team rules and being to scared to pitch it upOur bowlers dont swing the ball like other teams, Starc does on occasions when he gets his act together but its more a hit the deck and seam it type attack which will probably do well in South Africa who have the same type of pitches and bowlers.
Your point is a good one though and Mark Taylor wants Sayers and Worrall to be considered when necessary with Starc to miss out. I think Neser or Abbott might get a game in the near future.
Green is impressive but after Cummins and crew have bowled he looks like a medium pacer and I think the Indians viewed him as light relief. I wouldnt want to over bowl him or make him step up his pace as he looks the injury prone type and we need him for his batting. Maybe he can bowl 130-135km and concentrate more on swinging the ball and leave the bouncers etc the frontline bowlers.
