Next Generation

Are the players they prioritised vastly inferior? I don't know, just asking

NSW should be a net provider of talent though

If they're functioning well, there will be NSW-born cricketers playing all over Australia

I was just making the point that NSW picked a 33 man Academy squad that Olli Patterson couldnt make, but a few months later he is playing BBL.

No one else on that 33 man list played BBL. Singh had a replacement deal with the Sixers.

Are they inferior - I guess thats very subjective. But you would have to assume he has something that the other fast bowlers on that 33 man list dont have. Or as I alluded to in an earlier post, sometimes you just get a lucky break. It doesnt always mean you are better than other players

Honestly with the standard of batting atm in the country

its a perfect time for the youngens to make names for themselves and get established in the state teams

Yep. They can spend their time there piling on the runs until our incumbents go into respite.

Didnt he get his initial ones at the start of the season? Similar to Vidler but Qld just decided to put him on ice for the season
