That was not a 'workign over dismissal'

None of those balls on the lead up were attempting to get Ponting cutting to cover. Poor ball and poor shot.
Indeed not but it smacked of a dismissal brought about by pressure. Loose shot to an apparent scoring opportunity brings the wicket.

He obviously doesn't know his role in the team. JL probs tells him to start slowly, leaving the good balls and perhaps punishing the bad, as long as you don't get out and then, once your eye is in, start scoring more quickly. Warner hears "leave some random balls and smash the rest".

He must not know his role in the team for NSW either then. Or in fact any one day cricket team he's played for. It's almost like being a really boundary-reliant batsman doesn't quite work in one day cricket...

Dhoni must be kicking himself right now. Only three more overs from his seamers in these conditions...

Time to go soon. Three more overs and then start playing like a T20 (or in Clarke's case, like a Test :ph34r:)
