Thought simmy was bowling his leg spin then not Warner.  Shocking first over.

Harsh on Simmy that, he can at least land it in the batsman's half!

Yeah I suppose it was. I can't believe they haven't got two decent spinners especially in the conditions.

I don't think they have two proper spinners in the entire country!

even though he is, as I have said several times, not even county standard, I have to agree that Lyon is better than Doherty, who surely bowls left arm slow rather than anything that could be termed spin!

If you have picked him for the tour, I would rather play him than two part time spinners

Interesting thought - they gave Lyon custodianship of the precious team victory song (not that they'll be needed one much in the near future ;) ) and he lasted precisely one game thereafter...

I've just turned the recording on (day one). Is it worth sitting through or is it just a typical indian pitch of millions of runs for no wickets?
