Australia are at a low ebb at the moment, 'rebuilding' and all, but they will smash this NZ rabble.
I know mate, was just being a bit sarcastic with the 'cracking series' remark. Was moreso a comment about the fact both the kiwis and us are at similar low ebbs at the moment.

No I know you were being sarcastic mate, my comment wasn't directed at anyone in particular

To be fair he did just save the Kiwis from major humiliation yesterday against the Zimboks
Thats where looking at just the scorecard and reading a report can be deceptive. I watched most of it. Unimpressive looking at the big picture. Most of his wickets were from the Zim batsman getting themselves out rather than decent deliveries.
He bowls at military medium pace, while they didn't have a speed radar I'm thinking around 125-130 kph.
He relies more on swing, and while he was getting some shape, his control was poor as it has been most of his career.
If you are a swing bowler at that pace, you need to be deadly accurate. Something he is clearly not and he's not an opening bowling, as he was doing in this Test.
