I thought our bowling early let us down, although Lee was economical, with the amount of uneven bounce happening, we didn't attack off stump enough, we bowled to Akmal's strength.

Easy in hindsight but when Ponting and Hussey were in i was still very worried. The aussies basically slogged the first 5 overs (note paines whip when he was on 0) beacuse they new it was a "new ball track" and it would get very hard with their spinners and a dead track. Pakis knew this as well hence bowling afridi first change. Did well to win i think if aussies had their time agian they would have batted first.

I crashed as well with the Aussies seemingly cruising. Very surprised to see we did it so tough but a win is a win!

We're playing the poms in the semi's tomorrow night around 9 ish.

David Hussey is joining the squad in place of Michael Clarke too.

Yeah, last I saw of it was 50 odd off or 80 balls. And it was Ferg and Hussey in there, so I thought it was a piece of cake.
