Good to hear. He is a very good bowler when he bowls at that speed - although the speed may be an indication of him being in good rhythm rather than the speed causing him to bowl well. It would seem that a few were slipping out as full tosses, but that was likely due to the dew

Who is a better bowler than Brett Lee atm? Murali hasn't done too much in ODIs for a while.

Taking 3 wickets for chips was not good?

Fantastic innings here by Watson, good to see him staying there till the end and finishing the job. I hate it when batsmen do all the hard work and get out within sight of the total. Also good to see Jadeja providing support at the other end.

Haha, yea, that made no sense.

I love Watson but what makes you think he'd be a good captain? I really can't see it.

No *you* have to justify why someone who's only just scraped his Test average fractionally below 30 is the best bowler in the world at the moment, the burden of proof lies with you not me.
Lee's scraped a few good Tests together in favourable conditions and against batsmen who've a weakness against that combination. So what? Season before last he was average, season before that... average. He's not in the top 3 of either bowler rankings either.

He was talking about ODIs though, from what I can gather. I certainly took it that way at the time.

But this is Munaf Patel. As far as pace goes, he is a freudian nightmare.

He is almost 27 though. That would be almost mid-career most of the time (not disputing his talent).

"School of hard knocks" - he's really had to work for his chance
Basically, it's gut feel!
He's been earmarked as an OZ player for a long time and has suffered from injuries at every turn.
Australia won't ne no.1 forever and eventually they'll turn to him and I believe he'll succeed - nothing more
