Australia's bowling stocks are surging after James Pattinson followed Pat Cummins as the second youngster to star on debut in as many cricket Tests.
The 21-year-old Victorian looks set to feature with 18-year-old Cummins in Australian attacks for years to come after turning the first Test against New Zealand into a nine-wicket rout on the fourth day.
Pattinson, who took five for 27, was on a hat-trick at the Gabba after taking three wickets in four balls in the second over of the day, reducing New Zealand to 4-17.... from which they never recovered.
It was only Pattinson's 10th first-class game and he became the youngest Australian debutant to claim a five-wicket bag on home soil since 21-year-old Dennis Lillee burst onto the scene in the 1971 Ashes.
The Australian captain Michael Clarke likes what he's seen..
Australian fans will have fingers crossed that Cummins is cleared to return and play alongside Pattinson after resting a sore heel when the team for the second Test in Hobart is named today.
