Pattinson bowled 14 overs and 23 in the second innings and would've bowled about the same in his other Tests. His workload hasn't been that heavy. He looks as strong as an ox and fit as a Mallee bull, but I guess an injury is still an injury. Having Dan Christian in the side, (in place of Mike Hussey
) might not have made much difference in the overall sceme of things.
The injury is definately a set back, and a blow for the Aussies. Long-term, James Pattinson looks very promising. If he and Pat Cummins continue to develop and remain fit, Australia could have themselves a lethal bowling combination that could terrorize the cricket world for many years!
