I'd argue that he often does look unthreatening - hence the frustrating Harmy enigma - but then I've never had to face him! Was merely noting that his non-selection didn't seem to be big news amongst the SA top order. Didn't mean to re-open the debate though. Out of the four bowlers AB mentions (the fourth being Flintoff), only two have actually gone to SA! Let's hope that Plunkett and Onions can take them by surprise... Well in theory anyway.

Not that I believe his non-selection is particularly terrible, but he is one of those bowlers that can make life uncomfortable even if he's going for millions at the same time. Batsmen like to feel unthreatened, and that's rarely the case when he's running in. Surely the word ‘obviously’ shows that AB had just assumed that Harmy would be in the team.
