Re: Pakistan in Australia
I am going to dispel this myth.
I just went through every single one of his bowling innings. 233 of his 310 wickets were top 7 batsmen. Give or take 5 for human error. That's 75.16%.

Re: Watson - Love him or hate him?

Kallis - Possibly one of the best ever players.
Dilshan - Has been flying as of late.
