De Winter to succeed McDermott as bowling coach for Australia

[Needforspeed]

Good choice if he is picked.

[Manny_Pacquiao]

what an absurd candidate. this guy wasnt even that good a bowler and he was a convicted ball tamperer. as far as coaching goes, the paki bowlers turned to **** under his 'tutelage' so Mr. Maqar choonis' credentials arent very impressive. mayb the aussies are looking for an xtra net bowler? he could bowl that hack shaun marsh back into form.

[Robelinda]

bad move if it happens. there's a little known candidate, Ali De Winter, he remodelled Hilfenhaus last year, and look how he changed his bowling, apparently De Winter was very close to being picked last year as coach but McDermott *just* pipped him.

They would like to have some Winter in the summer later this year.

Does it mean he is not interested?

[Robelinda]

I guess he isn't interested! BUMMER! Look alike we get Waqar. Still, could be awesome seeing Pattinson steaming in bowling insane inswinging yorkers from his height. #notgonnahappen

[Lord]

McDermott please come to India:pray:

the only reason he would turn down the job is if he feels not ready and does not want to botch up such a career defining role.

[MCcricket]

It has rarely happened before, to see someone outside Australia or a non white person in a coaching role for Australia, until recently they never even picked players outside their preferred white or white mix requirements, and I don't think that will happen, yes Mc dermott was awesome for the Aussies, and Hilfenhaus's coach did a wonderful job on remodeling the out of form bowler to better then before bowler.

[saneindian]

Last time even Venkyji was in the running. They should reconsider him

[Cricket Tragic]

McDermott please come to India:pray:

We just got a new bowling coach. :giggle:

Pattinson wants Test-proven bowling coach James Pattinson has asked Cricket Australia to choose a new long-term bowling coach with Test match experience More... Pattinson wants Test-proven bowling coach Daniel Brettig June 16, 2012 James Pattinson enjoyed a successful start to his international career under Craig McDermott's tutelage James Pattinson, Craig McDermott's most prominent pupil during a compelling year as Australia's bowling coach, wants Cricket Australia to choose a long-term replacement with Test match experience, describing such knowledge of international bowling as a "must" for whoever is appointed. CA are set to commence formal interviews for McDermott's replacement at the conclusion of Australia's tour of England and Ireland but the team performance manager, Pat Howard, has already spoken with the former Pakistan captain and coach Waqar Younis. Tasmania bowling coach Ali de Winter is another contender, and will work in a caretaker capacity with Australia's fast men on this tour. Pattinson was adamant that the permanent role should go to a coach with international experience to call upon. "It's fantastic to have someone as your bowling coach who has had that experience at Test level or [of] international cricket. I think it's almost a must now, with the amount of cricket that we play, to have someone around the squad who has all that experience in there," Pattinson told ESPNcricinfo. "For me it is a bit of an emotional roller coaster playing Test cricket, as I've found out over the six months I've been involved. So to have someone who has that experience and has done that before is outstanding, and definitely a must." McDermott had an unmistakeable impact on Pattinson's bowling, encouraging the fuller length and unstinting line that laid waste to New Zealand and India in four Tests before a foot injury halted the 22-year-old's progress. He returned for one Test in the West Indies and tweaked his back when throwing from the outfield, but is now fully fit for duty in the UK. In the meantime, McDermott called an end to his touring with Australia for family reasons, leaving Pattinson to deal with the loss of a major influence on his progress. "It is tough [without McDermott]. The bowling group were very happy with his input into the team, he did a fantastic job, especially for the young guys coming into the team and trying to find their way," Pattinson said. "I'm a bit disappointed to see him go, but that's life. Family things take a toll sometimes. It is sad to see him go, but he's only ever a phone call away and he's hopefully going to be there for the rest of my career giving me advice. "I think for me in the West Indies, with such a good start I had [against India], I tried to do a bit too much with the ball and tried to take too many wickets - but the good thing is he's told me to keep it pretty simple and everything else will take care of itself. It's great to have him in the back of my mind, [someone] who I can give a call to and get some more advice." De Winter will need to earn the trust of Australia's bowlers, though his widely admired work with Tasmania's seam and swing bowlers has preceded him. "We've had little bit of a chat, he's pretty fresh to me, I haven't had a lot to do with him over my career," Pattinson said. "But from all reports he's a fantastic bowling coach and he's done really well for Tasmania as you've seen over the last couple of years with their success with their fast bowling brigade. So he's another great inclusion into our squad of staff." Having arrived in London ahead of a first tour match against Leicestershire on June 21, Pattinson is warming up for a trip that will provide him with valuable knowledge about how to bowl in England. Australia have one ODI against Ireland and five against England, before an Australia A tour will allow Pattinson and others to practice with the Dukes ball in a first-class environment. "The conditions are pretty good for swing bowling over here, so it's just about my adjusting my skills to the situation and what the pitches throw up," Pattinson said. "It's almost a year to the Ashes, so I'll be doing my best to get as much knowledge of these pitches and tap into some knowledge of past bowlers as well, how they've gone over here and how they've succeeded." As the younger brother of Darren Pattinson, who played one Test for England, James Pattinson has plenty of close links to the UK, and was understandably keen to make himself known in the land of his father. "My family's from here so it is a place I've always wanted to go and compete and play cricket," he said. "It's going to be a good lead-in for me going into the Ashes and get some experience over here, so I'm looking forward to it." "With my brother it's always good to have someone who's got great knowledge of playing over here and the conditions to ring up and have a chat to. I'll be having a chat to him in more detail in the days to come."

Waqar Younis misses out on Australia job

"I was interested but it didn't work out between me and Cricket Australia," Waqar told ESPNcricinfo. "It didn't really work out. They did interview me. I guess what I'm offering and what they're looking at are two different things. I don't know, I haven't really asked them the details but that's how it stands at the moment. It has just been in the last couple of days."
