He told SunSport: "England have tried to hide him from us, but it seems everywhere we go, he''s been bowling in the nets. Apart from facing him, we''ve probably seen more of him in action than Stuart Broad. He looks very good and has had a lot of success early in his career. He''s definitely talented."
