Trevor Hohns
Trevor Victor Hohnsis a former Queensland and Australian cricketer who played in seven Tests in 1989 where debuted at the age of 34. Hohns's legspin was largely unheralded during the 1989 Ashes series, which among his wickets included deceiving England's Ian Botham in the fourth Test at Old Trafford, who was bowled for a duck after missing a charging hoick. Hohns also was a handy late-order batsman, often batting as high as number six for Queensland in Sheffield Shield cricket...

believe blend bowling coming covered decision easy experience fast full given happy injury length line pace quartet shoulder
The decision on the make-up of the fast bowling quartet was not an easy one, given that we are without McGrath. We wanted a blend of pace, youth, experience and line and length and believe we have all of these covered with our selection. Tait is coming back from a shoulder injury and he's bowling at full pace so we're happy that the injury isn't hampering his bowling.

bowlers crop depth dozen given grab half hand maybe opportunity pack
I think the depth is there but what we've got, I think, is a crop of four, five, maybe half a dozen bowlers all in the pack. We'd like to see one of those put their hand up and really come out of that pack and really grab that opportunity once it's given to them.

He's been a fringe player for a long time. We consider that he's probably at his peak right now. He was the logical replacement for Damien once we left a batsman out of the squad.

I guess the past 12 months for Matthew in one-day cricket, even by his own admission, hasn't been great for him. We considered that it was now time to move on and try something else,

He's the type of cricketer that we consider is essential for one-day cricket. He bats, bowls, and fields very, very well,
