To give a small piece of understatement, Cameron Green stands out.

Cricketers who are two metres tall tend to do that.

Green stood out with the ball as Australia knocked over England in the first Test at the Gabba, sending down the Kookaburra ball at pace, creating movement, and extract bounce.

He took out England's Ollie Pope when he was well set, hurried on a hook shot that was top-edged down to a catcher on the boundary.

The extra bounce played a major part in drawing an edge behind, as he removed England's most important player in Joe Root. Green removed Chris woakes from his match.

Most of the attention has been on Green's bowling.

Pat Cummins said that he was one of the next best quicks a couple of years ago. He started making hundreds.

Green made four centuries in his third season after two seasons as a bowler and batting at number eight or nine. He made a hundred against India for Australia A in the 21st century.

He was in the Test team at number six. No one can decide where to look for Green.

His first Test summer didn't allow him to bowl freely. He didn't take a point in four Tests.

Cummins said that the series was straight after a stress fracture and that they didn't want to put too many overs into him on the ground.

Things have changed.

"He's had a good pre-season, he's bowling better in the Shield, and he's back to what he was two years ago," said Cummins.

Green grew up in suburban Perth near the former Australia rules football stronghold of Subiaco. He would have been a good centre-half forward in that format, with the ball being dropped onto his head by the players and few defenders having a chance to stop it.

He was playing first-grade cricket by the age of 16 and was fast-tracked into Cricket Australia pathway matches and playing first-class state cricket before his 18th birthday.

Cummins said that the excitement at that level was about his ability with the ball. The runs didn't take long to catch up.

He's going to be given time to grow into his role in the national team, so he's going to be embedded for a decent stint by the age of 22.

The work of Green will be important for England in the next four Tests.

England's captain Joe Root thought he did well in the whole game. I thought we did a good job of managing him. It's nice to get that in the bank ahead of the rest of the series because he has a slightly different action than the other guys. He was a talented player.

Green's bowling teammates think his presence is an unfamiliar bonus.

The Australian men's Test team has been trying to find an all-rounder for years, but have been unsuccessful.

None has given more useful medium pace. Green is shaping as a genuine pace option, who can give extra rest to the frontline three quicks, or allow two spinners to be played with confidence in helpful conditions.

Lyon's entire 101-Test career has been searched. The off-spinner was effusive about his view of Green's bowling.

I'm used to seeing Josh, Pat, and Starcy hit the ground and the pace and bounce that they get. "Greeny's rhythm, the way he's come in and whacked the pitch to get something out of it, I was blown away."

I'm excited about his skills. His belief will grow day by day, training session by training session, and Test by Test. He's going to be an asset for Australian cricket for a long time.

The spectre of injury always shadows young bowlers, that's the final word. The future is not guaranteed. Australia can afford to be optimistic because of the improvement behind Green's rise.
