look the way he bowled today with the new ball was very good. he bowled to 2 blokes that were in fair nick and was very unlucky runs through the slips and the like but we needed wickets so he was'nt getting a 3rd man.
Yeah mate ill single him out, he is old enough and sure as hell ugly enough to cop what ever criticism comes his way, especially if he wants to open his mouth and say stupid stuff. No doubt he has plenty to learn about himself and about playing at higher levels, he needs to realise that himself as well.
Im also not doubting he will be an asset in future carnivals, and im sure in 2yrs he will be a bit more ready to go again.
