Re: Fawad Ahmed given Sheffield Shield call-up

The Vics have collapsed in the 2nd inning and are currently 6 for 86

Mennie and Sayers must have bowled very well again today, SA a real chance now.

And just got over the line. I think it's SA first home win for about three and a half years

Well how silly we've become.
Pattinson only allowed to bowl 12 overs in each innings!
How does that prepare for an ardous tour of India ?
Mind boggling

Sports scientists are having a bigger say in running the team than ever before and we are having the worst run of injuries in our history. I don't think it's a stretch to say the two events are related.

The most mind boggling thing about it all is that the worse our injury problems become the more the sports scientists are given control. It's like saying x isn't working so lets do x a lot more.

Short, tidy and uncomplicated run up and good control. His quicker ball is OK as well.
Bowls very well to the left handers

He's only bowled 3 overs so I hope to see a few more.

Yes he had impressed tonight. Has a wicket and could have had another.

His wrong-un looks good as well but he's allowed nearly all the runs to be scored square of the wicket. I'd like to see how the batsman would go if they had to drive him.

What do you think about Sandy?

Sandhu? Awkward type of a player. Bowls quicker than his run up and action but uncoordinated in the field. Young and awkward

Would be nice instead of sticking the boots in with his Twitter drivel, Warne could give a bit of tuition. He looked okay, and hopefully he gets a 4 day gig.

Just watching Ahmed bowl today.
Been impressive .
Better bowler than Doherty
