i doubt bligz is coming back . we need to move on from him now. we still have a lot of promise. meth could be the nxt blignaut, he is only 23 and bowls round 130 clicks , and can smash a ball. i beg the selectors to give him a run , he has class all over him

Ya I have to agree with you there mate. Ya he generally bowls around 82-83 mph, but it's what he does with the ball impresses me. He can swing it in, and away, and like you said he has genuine ODI class written all over him for the ODI and T20 format. I'm not too sure if he's suite the test match arena, but my god he should be atleast considered.
