It has to be said that so far Eyelids has looked as dangerous as bambi.
Perhaps I’m being unfair to bambi.
But a point needs to be made.
He does not look like a test match bowler today.
You could argue nerves, a flat pitch and an extremely disciplined South African line up haven't helped.
This is the slowest I have ever seen him bowl, and by far the most erratic.
At this pace, you can't afford to be erratic.
On paper he has bowled as well as Broad, and he probably has on the field as well, but Broad is a foetus.
Take one look at Pattinson's eyes, if you can, and they show a man of many years.
He is lucky if he bowls 3 testing balls a spell, and Vaughan clearly does not see anything he likes.
Every spell he bowls the pressure is lifted, and he does not have the weaponry to danger set batsman on this kind of pitch.
Right now you'd argue this is going to be Eyelids only test.
And he is bowling like he has already accepted it.www.cricketwithballs.com
