So much for James Hopeless. He's given us a slim hope if anything.

You seriously come here to post every time a Qlder does well don't you?

Didn't mention Hauritz running out Marsh

 

[four_or_six]

Only Aussies to do anything with the spinners were Haddin (7 off 14), Watson (22 off 34) and Hopes (11* off 21). Particular crapness from Clarke (4 off 4) and Symonds (1 off 5), with Ferguson (2 off 13) let off for taking into account his inexperience.

 

[Xuhaib]

Hopefully, the Pak openers are aggressive. Don't want to see Butt bat for 10 overs, not score a run, then get out and give Aus a sniff.

Would be interesting to see how Jamshed handles Brack and Clark, have given up on Butt for long don't reckon he will be international quality ever.

Hauritz plays for NSW...

I don't have vision, so just jumped on to check the scorecard every now and then.

However, it is clear that Hopes deserves his spot in the side and it is more than justified. The crap he receives on here is a joke.

His batting has been good recently.

and so he flops again.

He should just play against India.

Think Pak want to be 3 down for 20 off 10.

It's more that he doesn't have a place in a full strength Australian side. He's been playing as a bowler for most of the summer, but when he got picked at 7, most people on here were for it. So I don't know what you're getting at.

 

[TT Boy]

Aus bowlers getting the ball to swing.

 

[Andre]

Anyone wanna place bets on how many ODI's Bracken has got left in him?

 

[andyc]

The p%+@gots on this site who hates Afridi must be mad.
Good bowling Boom Boom

People here only have problems with his batting, I can't really remember anyone claiming that he wasn't a good OD bowler.

Meh, to be expected.

I know I’m late to the party but Afridi!! What a bowling performance. Can’t believe I missed it. I’ll be anxiously waiting to watch the replays. Can anyone tell me how Shoaib bowled?

 

[four_or_six]

I'm not sure if Hopes looks better recently because everyone else has got worse, or whether he really has got better. I actually think he was bowling better last year.

Shoaib was ordinary.

Expected a lot more from him. Hopefully next game.
