Mitch looked very good against the right handers and then barely a professional bowler against the left handers. It would seem he's never liked bowling to them much, he just cannot bowl a consistent area against them.

Of course, the most important thing for me, Bird has been far more prolific domestically.
I think they are quite different tbh.

Bird is a lot more straighter and seems to have more control. Hilf had a bit of MJ about him with that slingy action.

He's bowling real well bird isn't he. Not due to extravagant movement at all but he's making them play and bowling a very probing line and length

Hilf really confused me. I think he looks a quality Test bowler on the surface but just doesn't get it done often enough in the middle. I think the action and the shape all looked superb but something always seemed to be missing.
