It normally requires the batting side to be very stupid to get dismissed for 127.And a couple of Australians were. Hussey was quite silly. Ponting was extremely silly.But what was most striking about this collapse was how little Australia could do about it. There were a host of unplayable balls. The jaffers which got Clarke, Watson and North were particularly impressive.So while South Africa (with no disrespect to good efforts from Broad and Swann) got themselves out at Durban, Pakistan out-classed the Aussies today.Mohammad Sami reminded us all that the perfect away-swinger is a finer sight that ten T20 slogs over cow corner.
