You have kicked your Meth addiction already?

If you guys actually read what i put i wouldn't be writing this...
I never said I've gone off Meth, i just said i was expecting a bit more pace. Having said that the wicket was extremely slow and was more suited towards the spinners.
I reckon he's going to be a quick bowler because of his upper body strength and wrist action. He's got two very good slower balls and he swings the ball both ways.
I just think he could get a little more side on at the point of delivery. A star in the making

On past days there's been nothing until the Test matches have finished - channels naturally giving them priority. Should be something by the time Mountaineers bat, I'd reckon.
