I see Finn is already working on his consistency...23 overs 1 wicket for 120 odd runs.....

Sparkling.....how does he get anywhere near a Test team?

Steve Harmison had his wayward moments.

I cant pass judgement as I haven't seen any of the friendlies yet.
I have it on series link to record on Tuesday night when I start living in Aussie time for the series!
:D
At night I will be relying on TMS as not sure will keep my eyes open!

No Richie Benaud commentary until Boxing Day at the earliest. "In excellent spirits", but recovering slowly from a car crash.

By being a flippin' good bowler perchance?

Surrey's Saffer has caused him problems mind with his usual display of terrible sportsmanship.

Yep....1 wicket for 123 runs really suggests he's got what it takes.....

In my mind, KP is as much a Surrey player as Geoff Boycott was.....

Nowt to do with KP. I'm talking about Surrey's overseas "star" who got the law changed re: bowlers accidentally knocking the bails off, which has necessitated a remodelling of Finn's run-up.

And well done for extrapolating one innings to prove a point. James Anderson once took 0/100, bleddy rubbish, get him off.

After seeing one day of cricket I am still no nearer to making any judgements
The Aussie A team bowlers seem very low on experience
