Love the way ICC05 severely overrates Samaraweera's bowling. Just one ranking point behind Murali.

U19 Debutant
Pine's bittersweet debut



Brad Pine's debut against the West Indies in the First Test was a mixture of emotion. "The elation of finally cracking it into the Test area has been a dream... but no-one ever likes to lose." The modest spinner is content with his achievements and knows he can improve.

Pine rolled the arm over for just 2 wickets and rather expensively but the Australians couldn't contain the talent from the Caribbean. Pine also contributed in the first innings with 35 runs at number 11. But the highlight of the match for Pine was his first wicket. "Bowling at all time great like Lara is surreal but snaring his wicket was amazing. Never thought I would get him out in my debut. Never."

Pine hopes that his debut isn't a once off and he can continue to strive for spin bowling prowese like other Australian legends. "No-one can beat Warne's career. Look as long as I can match it with (Kerry) O'Keeffe in my career, I'm happy!"

Not sure what chance I have of Australian selection if the Tasmanian selectors won't give me a fair go.
