Fear Steyn yes but Philander?
Having watched Philander bowl he is decent but his figures to date flatter him and I expect his numbers to go down.
He has 52 wickets at an average of 15.40 and I cannot see that average staying where it is.

If this, if that.
If conditions are "wet and greenish" then Philander, Steyn, Anderson, Broad, Bresnan will all have good numbers.
Philander's test bowling average is NOT going to stay at 15.40.

Philander's first 4 test matches were at home in South Africa.
Then his next three were against New Zealand in New Zealand and he had an excellent series getting 21 wickets at 15.48.
I expect the WI bowlers to have plenty of success against this New Zealand side - ha ha ha ha.
Having said that Philander strikes as he gets Cook for a duck.

Kallis misses KP. Should have held that even though it was not easy.
