Speaking of which, I'll be watching his Hampshire comeback on Monday.England Expects said:Watching Warne play is something I'll never get bored of.... great news.
Is it out of question that Australia would play two spinners? The pitches in the WI are suppose to be assist them.FaaipDeOiad said:A bowler of Warne's class will obviously be a huge bonus in a world cup. It will be a disappointment for Hogg, but there's no doubt about who the better bowler is, however good Hogg is in the shorter form.
good points as i mentioned before Australia have enough to do without him in the OD team, and i personally would like Warne to stick to test cricket and play until 40. But there is no doubt about his quality, but i think Warne should forget about ODI's since Hogg has been doing a superb job over the past 3 years as the lead ODI spinner.honestbharani said:Two ways of looking at it:
Warney is coming to the end of his career, and probably wants to go out with the WC and AShes as his last series in ODIs and Tests respectively.
But it is also kinda a backward step. I think the Aussies have done well enough post Warne in ODIs and he won't be missed as much in ODIs as he will be in tests. So, this is going backwards for sure.
Plus after a possibly very intense Ashes series, do you think he will have enough left in him to come back and do it all again in the WC,esp. on what would probably be flat pitches and small boundaries?
