Yeah I know. Just I had suggested him based on him being one of the best openers last season and I'm proving myself right. :D

At a summer job now so no idea how Casson looks. Hopefully I'll see some highlights later. Using cricinfo for updates. Saw the Marshall wicket though. That was soft.

Brad MacDonald > Beau Casson.

He's not the worst, but I don't feel Casson is the man to play spinner for the Aussie Test side.

Yeah apart from his bowling Casson's body language doesn't suggest the kind of self-possession that marks a top cricketer. He seems completely over-awed by the occasion. I know it's his first test but compare , for example, with Piyush Chawla who is much younger than he is.

I should add that I don't think Casson shouldn't be given a few more chances. Quite a few great bowlers looked fairly crappy in their early tests; just saying that early indicators aren't looking good.

Haha. How many times has Chandepaul hit 18 runs in a test over? Poor Casson; I doubt he will get another bowl in this innings.

I dunno... judging by Johnson coming back on, Ponting puts his naughty bowler on the outer for a bit and then lets them back on to take a couple of wickets.
