Just in time, out of the Blue when a lot of our fast bowlers are about to retire shortly, Mahli debuts for Aussie in Perth ODI and kills it. The 21year old takes 6/24 and the way he got those figures was impressive.
This kid who resembles David Hookes to a degree bowls over 140 kms with beautiful line and lenght and is so reminisent of his mentor D K Lillee. Only injury would stop him playing in game 2, tomorrow in Adelaide.
Excited with this bloke.

Rested or managed. So not injured but still not playing.
Poms went crazy ...350+. Looks like we needed him.
The batting order for ODI is shit. We have a top 4 of Head, Marsh, Conolly and Inglis. None off these 4 can face a swinging ball so if there is something there for the bowlers, it is very easy to be 4 down quickly like today. You lose 4 wickets in the powerplay and your odds of winning is slim.
Conolly is so fucking overated. Everytime he bats I cringe. I don't understand how he has scored an ODI century. His technique is so shit. Even we he makes runs he looks shit. He flukes so many runs.
Konstas scored a century in his only one day game this year. If he can be consistent there is role in the ODI team waiting for him.
Need to find a 6 and 7 still. David if he decided to play some one day cricket would be an ideal 7. But doubt he wil. Green needs to work on his SR against spin. Its too low.
