@phoenixdesi

agreed…their attack was badly exposed today

but on your second point, SA has done well on slow pitches as welll…read India…styen was able to generate enough pace and some reverse swing..morkel still got some bounce…that being said, they need a quality spinner but i doubt they will ever have one…they were playing imran tahir as a hero spinner! lol.. Clarrkie and hussey finished him in one day

I also think their batting is strong enough to bail them out when their bowling fails…that is why we could not destroy them in UAE the way we did England..amla, kallis and ADB are best players of spin

Overall, i think SA will do well next few years coz they have no competition... and bycott missed that point…

aussies, completely pathetic and rebuilding.. next 4+ years they are done…DONE

india, well not sure what to say more coz uncle southie will kill me…but they are a lame duck for now…DONE

sri lanka is abt to lose jaywardna and dilshan in next few months and sanga in next 12 months…DONE

Pak is finished coz its batting has no hopes esepcilaly after younis leaves…DONE

NZ and WI…no comments required! DONE

so all we have is England… and SA can handle them

Disagree on your opinion on Aus and Pak.

I have seen more batting talent in Pak since 2008 than I have ever seen in my life, many batsmen in domestic cricket are so far better than come of international batsmen Pak played like Ramiz Raja. Pak selectors in last few years focus more on pushing players from their cities/affiliations and making sure they get selected and seniors in the team join hands with them to make sure that new guys are not given consistent chances to prove themselves so that seniors (who perform and produce results against BD/WI/SL/Zim on challenging surfaces of Abu Dehbi/Sharjah/Dubai/WI/Zim/SL/India/BD) keep getting selected.

This is something I have been saying for years. People like Umar Akmal/Umar Amin/Ahmed Shahzad/Sharjil Khan/Hammad Azam/Gohar Ali (May be I am not getting the name right but that wicket keeper from Peshawar) don’t get to play often enough and result is that we fold against opponents like AUS/SA/Eng in challenging conditions when a senior knows that there wouldn’t be anything consequences of not producing a result as their next series is going to be in Abu Dehbi/Sharjah/Dubai/WI/Zim/SL/India/BD against mighty BD/WI/SL/Zim.
