^ I don't get why you have Azhar Ali so far down the order. it is better to move him up and get n a finisher at his position.

Hussey was playing there but he wasnt performing.Babar and Pujara have played well and they deserve 1st and 2nd spot so i dont think there is anyone who should play at 6th instead of AZHAR

Our opening bowlers were exceptional and so was the former Aussie opening bowler, Johnson. Others went for a few and thats exactly why Bulls reached around 250. That said, it was heartening to see Voges putting an end to search of Viru's partner up the order with a quick 40. While Viru went cheaply yet again, Sanga and Kallis did the good work to tilt the game in our favor. Watto, like Kallis compensated for their bad bowling with some masterful batting. I really hope Mussey joins the party soon too.

With Dan coming into the side for the next game, our allround capabilities will have a great boost.

Our death bowling was pretty shocking, but Sehwag and Gambhir got the job done with the bat. Sehwag and Steyn are both simply going to be massive losses next round, because I've only got six international players so I have to play the other four. Not to mention how bad Rogers/Vincent have been, so my teams petty much been running a batsman short.

Horrible game against West Coast. Starc & Johnson made merry and Sanga never allowed to force our way back in the game. Amla and Steyn struggled and Hondo just leaked away runs.

 

[Dipak]

Our bowling was tooth-less without Dan, can I have my lineup of my last-to-last round please.

 

[Fenil]

Our bowling was tooth-less without Dan.

Yup, by miles. I am surprised you didn't use him. He could have been crucial for you with the bat as well.

For some reason I thought Vettori clashed with West Coast.

 

[Dipak]

Hauritz has good ODI record and can bat decently too. Shouldn't feel the absence of Dan with him in the side.

Even this post made me feel so.

Go Manicaland! Delighted to get Steyn in the clash.
