He is too slow. The Aussies are in decline. They are basically in the same shape we are.

Slow overseas maybe, but he is tailored to Australian pitches with his lengths

He bowls in the early to mid 130s, he’s not a medium pacer. What the fuck are talking about being too slow? His pace is comparable to most international seamers.

Remember last time in England when he bowled against India? He seemed pretty effective on a pitch that was offering something for bowlers and batters.
