Starc reminds me of Morkel 4 years ago.
Great height, fantastic bounce and good pace, seams and swings it on occasion. Lengths all over the place, bowls trash 50% of the time, but also capable of bowling a jaffer that could get out any batsman, no matter how set.
Morkel's now imo arguably the best quick in the world, he bowls to plans, sets up batsmen, and shows how important experience and time out in the middle is to developing a young quick.
There's not too many quicks in the world with Starc's bounce, especially a left armer, I think he could be a nightmare in England if he starts to get some consistency. What worries me though, he will be back in 20/20 $$$ mode in less than a few months, and that development will be up the creek as he tries to bowl wide yorkers every ball.........
Starc stays, there's not much difference between Johnson's trash, and Starcs at times, but at least with Starc, he's 22, and there's light at the end of the tunnel.
As for the batsmen: I'm kind of in the Watson down the order thinking. He has good technique but tends to get his front leg crossed ALOT for my liking. He's a good player of spin, can dominate a side when needed, and can still face the second new ball, he's perfect for 6 imo.
Personally I'd drop Watson down to 6, move Hussey to 5, Clarke to 4 and it's a toss of the coin as to play Hughes at 3 or open up with him, I'd personally like to see how he does at 3, as I think he could be quite good there....
