The last two matches i have watched of the Hurricanes, the comms have gone with a call that Meredith is a great young bowler. Then in both times he has gone for a massive amount of runs and bowled horrible overs. In this first over of the Renegades Meredith has gone for 23 runs and I think 3 NB and 1 WD.
But boy was he quick

octane.
him and archer in tandem are magic.
Heās bowled some of the worst rubbish you can imagine tonight.
Got Christian on a glove down leg side. He misses itā¦itās yet another wide.
Archer or Meredith
Wellā¦Meredith!
Everyone can stay at my house for the final
Quick for sure but not a heap of control and doesnāt move it. Billy Stanlake theory. Heās been pretty ordinary all tournament in fact.
He shows a bit but he had a mass explosion last night.
22yo.
1 season of shield.
Short on maturity.
Patience required.
Wow. Young fast bowler lacking control.
Whoās a thunk it

Heās pretty bad but itās not so much the lack of control thatās the biggest issue. He doesnāt really do enough with it to make for the lack of control from what Iāve seen. Like Stanlake, heās pretty straight and these days it doesnāt really matter how quick you bowl, if you bowl straight youāll go the distance.
See if he can develop though, 1st point of call is to stop running in from ā ā ā ā ā ā Mid off!
I watched him do a bit with it in one shield game v the Vics. So he can. Donāt think itās there consistently enough. Againā¦22yoā¦ not the finished article.

Thatās encouraging. Youād think with that angled run up heād be tailor made to take the ball away from the right hander. Fingers crossed he develops cause the kidās sure got some wheels!
Yep.
Kid just needs a quiet few years as a 3rd seamer in shield, developing the consistency with a bit less pressure.

yeah bowling up front in T20 is slaughter on a young bloke who lacks for a bit of control. Huge pressure.
Heāll take a few in the final.
I donāt mind him and wasnāt really having a go at him, more the stupid comms like Lee who talk people up way, way too soon. Sure he has some promise but letās give him some time to develop first.
Brett Lee commentates like he bowled.
