Robyn with his "reverse" swings may unsettle the batsmen at times, when they were planning on taking him for granted. But that's really it. Where is Robyn going w/ the Test team...most people will agree...nowhere.
Instead, BCB probably knows how badly Masri is hurt, and want to rely on him as little as possible. They want a Masri II as fast as possible and want the 2 underlings to get as much exposure as possible. That is the good part. Its just that they ought to have arrnged some tutorship under a well known fast bowler from the past.
Remember, Masri's debut was made very conducive to success - that stint with Andy, and then debut against NZ under very seam friendly conditions.
So give the 2 young fast bowlers a chance...that's the best bet for BD....Robyn is just another of our oversupply of medium pace trundlers...with an occassional good ball...that many of you very diligently pull out from the CI commentary..for what purpose, I don't know.
