*Official* Pakistan in Australia

enjoying this partnership.. future pakistani batsmans here.. I would like to see the in place of Misbah and malik in near future..

To think some wanted Nannes over Harris. Pretty much the perfect bowling performance from Harris, hustled with the new ball and knocked over the dangerous Afridi when required.

Excited about the way McKay has been bowling. Putting up some impressive numbers, and I personally don't believe he is bowling that well. Generally gets more batsman unsure of how to play him off the front foot (given his height and the length he bowls).

Great game of cricket, great as a fan of some of the unsung players in Australian cricket such as McKay, Harris and Marsh.

Really pleased now that I called Harris as a good prospect for our T20 team. I didn't watch his whole spell, but 5 wickets means he is the man!

A decent fightback from Pakistan to get an OK score after looking as if they'd fall into a heap again - but still no cigar.

Really pleased with Ryan Harris' efforts, too. This'll hopefully reduce Peter Siddle's workload. We can have any of Bollinger/McKay/Harris/Mitch in our attack, with Hauritz providing spin duties. It'll reduce the likelihood of injury amongst our Test team and provide some match practice if need be.

I just wish our Test team was as consistent and assured as our ODI team.

(y) awesom that Marsh/Clarke were in the runs, and pleasing that Harris slotted into the attack nicely. Time for Dougeh to get a rest I'd say when Mitch comes back into the team over in perth. Was also interesting listening to Ricky give an interview on the radio saying that he won't be rested, kinda surprised tbh but oh well.

Not convinced with Harris. Seen him bowl some top spells over the last few seasons, but some gash aswell.
:thumbsup:

I don't think anyone's interested in seeing Pakistan. Spineless team.
I was there! But yeah, the crowd was average. I know the official figures will say around 15K but no way were the all there at the same time. Big absences in all parts bar the members before Pakistan started batting. Poor show, Adelaide.

Love seeing guys like McKay and Rhino in the wickets, shows to go ya what a lot of hard work can do if you're not godly talented. The whole crowd was cheering on Afridi too. Good show, Adelaide. :ph34r:

Mentioned to my my mate about A-shocker, great to see he didn't disappoint. Poor Butt, was looking a bazillion dollars.

EDIT: By the way, I know he's the chosen one but I reckon the Aussie batting line-up can do without Clarke in it. The middle overs were just horrendous leaving others with so much to do and he was just about the worst player to have out there during a power-play. His LO cricket has been ordinary for a while and if anyone quotes his numbers at me to defend him, I'll ****ing scream because then I'll know they haven't seen him bat in ODI's lately.
