The Oldest Young Man in Australian cricket, Doug Bollinger, is going to the West Indies.
Finally Ben Hilfenhaus has been ruled out with injury.
This is the same injury I have been harping on about all year, his back.
I have mentioned this before, but I’ll do it one more time just for kicks, at the G before a game against the Vics, Hilfenhaus looked like a car in pit lane, there were so many people working on him, and i think they replaced a limb.
On form Bollinger should have been going ahead of him anyway.
Sure he is from NSWales, but unlike the other duds they pick from no where, he actually has performed better than any other young quick in the country.
Peter Sizzle is the only other player anywhere near him, but his arm is in a sling, and therefore Douggie had to get a go.
For those of you unaware of Bollinger’s particulars, he is a tall, bald, left armer of reasonable pace, who seems to get wickets by the bag full.
He does look a little dopey, and it took him a while to shave his whole head even though he was fooling no one.
The selectors have been saved by this injury to Hilfenhaus.
Because as good as bowler as he is, and oh how he is, he shouldn’t be trying to break his way into the Australian team coming off the worst season of his life.www.cricketwithballs.com "Practice Sehwagology and kill the Probots"
