Australia at this moment are like the WI of the 70s/80s or close to. Plenty of fast bowler coming out of 1st class cricket and they are all real good.

Peter Siddle
Mitchell Johnson
Ben Hilfenhaus/Bryce Mcgain
That is one scary bowling attack.![]()
Why drop a young, promising swing bowler for an older bowler who relies on pure pace but isn't even that fast anymore? Lee is too inaccurate to be test standard anymore. Definitely don't bring him back.Lee with some first class matches under his belt will go in for Hilfenhaus, if we need a spinner though, Lee would be the first to drop.
Yes Ben you did well, but you weren't the only one - I've been talking Siddle up since that great FC final myself. England fans may remember me predicting he'd rip through England in the 2009 Ashes if picked, and this was about 10 months ago.
I think MJ will give KP allot of problems with his angle and pace. Similar to what Zaheer Khan did. I remember MJ ruffling up KP in the Champions Trophy 2006 in a ODI with a short ball and the very next ball KP knicked one to Gilchrist.
