More Quotes from Trevor Hohns:
(Lee's) had a pretty hectic season, he's played nearly every game for Australia and he's done exceptionally well for us. He's bowled fast all the time so, once again, he's another one of those players that we're really going to have to manage a little bit, possibly a little bit better, in the future.Trevor Hohns

It is fair to say that the (selectors) were looking for Brad to put together some really big scores in (domestic first-class) cricket to consolidate his position in the test squad but unfortunately that hasn't happened. The decision on the make-up of the fast bowling quartet was not an easy one, given that we are without Glenn McGrath for this series.

Obviously it's a concern to him, it's a concern to everybody, but he's not the only one at the moment either. It just so happens that Matthew's stats keep getting thrown up. That he hasn't scored a hundred in so many Tests.
