Medium pacers in international cricket

[GirtBySea]

Similar in style and walk up; that's it.
Warner=Ponting.
Explosive batsmen and fieldsmen, very ordinary but not terrible bowlers.
BTW Ponting also started as a leggie, went to medium pace, reverted to off-spin and then went back to mediums.

Wade gets them through better than Warner.

Wade gets them through better than Warner.

Lyon to keep to Wade and say "Nice, Wadey" after every ball.

Giving Wade a spell is a genuine option with Handscombe in the side I guess.

Medium pacers aided by conditions are great to watch.

Imagine if Alderman had been English rather than Australian.

He'd have lost the distinct benefit of bowling to the English battling line-ups of his era...

Nah, not many Indian players are willing to play county cricket. I was listening to Hindi commentary of the recent Mohali test where Sehwag described his county experience, he said he couldn't live there for more than two weeks, you have to prepare your own breakfast, drive to the ground for practice on your own, basically doing everything on your own. Call it laziness maybe.

Lol, that's an odd complaint considering the struggles some of the poorer Indian cricketers face.

What? Counties expect their cricketers to be functional adults? The bastards!
