Jason Gillespie was Yorkshire's head coach when Ollie Robinson was let go of the club due to a lack of professionalism, but, seven years later, the former Australian is quick to believe that England is a complicated match in a Test match.
Robinson took 13 wickets in the final while Sussex started the victory in Glamorgan, which was the best nine of his career, including 78 runs. Ability to move from a seemingly eloquent pitch.

265 first-class wickets in the last 12 months with the help of 265 runs in the England bubble, and over the course of 27 weeks, the 27-year-old has only begun to feel the need for time before he begins to step into the international arena. Uncertainty over the availability of players playing in the Indian Premier League and quarantine on return home could mean when New Zealand arrives for two Test matches in June.
Earlier in the day, the England captain had the opportunity to bowl during a meeting with his former club Yorkshire in Hove. Gillespie, a former White Rose coach, acknowledged that it was a tough call in 2014 when Robinson was fired for training late comers or absenteeism. He left Kent a year ago with his mother, Sandra, who was accompanied by Paul Farbras, another XI coach, and stepped in with white hair. But the young man struggled to adjust to life away from his friends.
However, since joining Sussex the following summer, Robinson has shone with the red ball. Gillespie, who rejoined the club during his recent three-year spell at the time, said England head coach Joe Root and Chris Silverwood would not be disappointed if he decided to give him a Test cap. Will
"Oli is at the height of his power," Gillespie told the Guardian. "I have no doubt he will not disappoint anyone if given the chance. He is big, tall [6 ft 5in] and bumps hard, moves with the seam, and can swing the ball. Pass Street Smart is also available. It works around 80 MPH but when its beans are going, 80 and in the middle. With its height and its discipline, it is very fast.
"Back in Yorkshire, there were some problems with professionalism. It was really a matter of time. If he had been there now, he would have flown. But at that time he was a young man from where he grew up and maybe a little bit bidding. When we crossed the road again in Sussex he was a very different person and holding hands from the heart, I can say that it is an honor for me to see how he has matured and himself Has been converted to Test Quality Bowler.
A common theme, when asked about Robinson on the county circuit, is his pre-match preparation. That's what Gillespie says may surprise some people in Yorkshire, but, like many young people, it's just the result of growing up on the field.

"Oli, to be honest, is a little badger in cricket. I would say he is the most researched and well-developed fast bowler in professional cricket. He does his homework and attends team meetings full of ideas.
He said he watches the footage, gathers information, and makes plans for each batsman with a new or old ball. He is a great example to others and that is why Sussex led him with the vice-captaincy. He does not give up physical work but in the end, he speaks cricket balls. He is fit for purpose. The biggest problem is sometimes getting the ball out of your hands. It is a dream in that sense.
One of the reasons for his role as a wicket-taker is that England saw Robinson as a candidate for the Ashes Tour next winter. Last year in the MCG, the Lions beat Australia A for the first time away from home and had seven wickets.
Gillespie added: "I was lucky to be working with the Lions for 10 days on this trip, and the feedback I got after leaving the Australian team's batting camp was that Robinson He was the best bowler of the show.
He said he has played club cricket for St George's in Sydney and has bowled many overs on Kokbora's ball on good batting pitches. They should definitely be considered carefully for the Ashes tour.
So it is during the chat with the sound of Glipsie, in which the kangaroo briefly intervenes, bouncing in front of his car on his way home from the Adelaide Oval. Like Escape, Robinson is clearly the one to keep an eye on.
