what is harwood and hilfenhaus like, i have never heard of them before

Should have watched the 20/20
From what I saw, Harwood is a hit the deck bowler generating good bounce while also surprising the batsmen with his pace as he doesn't look all that quick.
Hilfy was mid 130s but can crank it over 140, first ball he bowled you could see the ball out swing. He bowls a good line and had a number of plays and misses, good slower ball as well.

Harwood's action reminded me alittle of Simon Jones. Certainly surprised some batsmen with his pace, much like Jones.

Hilfenhaus would definately work in the team with someone who can swing the ball like he can, would be great if he had some faster pace

Harwood's pace isn't hurting anyone, and at this level he would probably be worked around by the batsmen.

Hilfy couldve bowled faster if he wanted...he was just nervous and wasnt trying anything fancy.

How old is Harwood btw?? I remember one of the commentator's saying he was in his early 30's think 32. Seems to be another late bloomer for the Aussies.

 

[mattfb]

Not sure excatly how old he is but he is definately in around the 30 year mark

 

[IloveGilly]

32 years of age. Heading towards 33 soon.

Definately a little late too select him as a bowler.

I just saw on the news that their are rumours going around that Matt Hayden belted up Damien Martyn sometime ago. Hayden denies this though. Anyone else here anything about this?

Cruel Rumour.

Apparently Haydos was the first to bear-hug Martyn when he rocked up in the Aussie dressing rooms after the SCG Test.

 

[aussie1st]

It's just our typical media spinning a story out of nothing. Until Martyn says it don't take anything this media is spinning off.

I doubt he'd do it personally, seems to be such a good spirit with the Australian team.

You never know what happens in the dressing room
