He struggled a bit early on in his test career . But even the non well wishers could see his improvement in the last year or two , due to in part the coaching of Ian Bishop and Tony Grey.

Hope that this genuine pace bowler continues to improve.

The standard used to be 100 wkts. in 20 Tests, now we celebrate 50 wkts. after 23 Tests.
