Australian Youngsters

[Covvy]

Who do you think will become the next Adam Gilchrist's, Shane Warne's and Matthew Hayden's?

Discuss.

Warner's game can fill the requirement of a devastating Gilchrist!Hughes can be like Haydos!

 

[piriyanth]

Next Adam Gilchrist-Cameron White
Next Matthew Hayden-Phil Hughes
Next Michael Hussey-Callum Ferguson
Next Brett Lee-Peter Siddle

Siddle has potential to be a great bowler but I always find it hard seeing the potential for those skiddy type bowlers without height or swing.

Hilfenhaus could do with late swing and a ball that goes straight if he wants to get to the next level. Paine looks to be a real talent, very good technique and has shown good temperament since joining the Aussie team.

 

[Howsie]

Peter George. I haven't actually seen him bowl before but I like what I've heard about him.

 

[aussie1st]

Yea hes got good control and bounce, pace could be a problem as looking at Sharma yesterday the 130s tall pacemen aren't as effective obviously McGrath being the exception and to an extent Clark.

 

[pcfan123]

I know it wont be Warner.

Always liked Shaun Marsh, dont know if he qualifies as a "youngster"

Yea hes got good control and bounce, pace could be a problem as looking at Sharma yesterday the 130s tall pacemen aren't as effective obviously McGrath being the exception and to an extent Clark.

So he isn't the quick? I was lead to believe he was 135K+ easily. Even so it's his other attributes that excite me, he's 6'7 so he's always going to trouble batsmen with that extra height.

From what I hear hes low 130s, his height is what I like about him but unless he is like Siddle and gives it 100% everytime he won't be able to get the ball to rush onto the batter. We should get more info on him this season.

Im a big fan of Dave Waner, Phil Hughes and Beau Casson (Cause i spoke to him and he is a great guy )

Moises Henriques The next Imran Khan

 

[Eon]

Yea its hard to pick from those... but the one with the most out right talent would be
Hughes... but I think the once Warner gets it right he will make a bigger impact. Gun fielder too.. and if he can bowl a couple overs of spin then all the better

 

[OffCutters]

Next Haydos- Hughesy ( No i`m not biased, what makes you think that?)
Next Gilchrist- Timmy Paine ( Not as good, but will still be good in a few years)
Next Ponting- Callum Ferguson (Absolute gun)
Next McGrath- Ben Hilfenhaus ( Different types of bowlers, but Hilfenhaus will be our strike bowler for a while)

 

[Jakester1288]

Callum Ferguson
Ben Hilfenhaus
Peter Siddle
Tim Paine
Phil Hughes
Jon Holland

Will become stars for Australia. Only talking about Tests, obviously, but I think Cameron White will be a big shorter forms star.

Moises Henriques could be a star, I've never seen him, but I hear he has big wraps. He's a shorter forms player yeah?

Jakester1288 added 15 Minutes and 17 Seconds later...

Warner's game can fill the requirement of a devastating Gilchrist!

No. Just no. Warner is rubbish, where as Gilchrist is a legend of Australian cricket. I suppose he's good to shut the eyes and swing in Twenty20, but if comes anywhere near the One Day or Test side this summer, I think I'll have to kill myself.

 

[iridescentt]

If only Warner could work on his temperament he'd be gun.

Anyway, I thought the 'Next Gilchrist' should be for the next gun wicketkeeper-batsman?
