Their bowling attack are averaging the highest speeds of any test bowling attack ever

recorded.

Appreciate that back in the day they did not routinely record the speeds but they are bowling a fair old lick and the pitch must be pretty quick.

Quick not necessarily a problem though if you get in and the bounce is true because you get good value for your shots and i guess you can leave a lot of balls knowing they will be going over the top. Just need to judge when to leave/play the short stuff.

Its been good that we've been able to play Lyon better as well. He was basically going for 1 an over in other tests and there was never any relief from the pressure.
