your comparing bracken with Ian Harvey hahahaha

Bracken in my eyes is the BEST ODI bowler in the world, who is better?

Steyn?

Australian Selectors have pretty much written him off as a test bowler, he is getting a bit older so looks like they are trying to get some fresh faces into the squad for the longer version of the game

does anyone know if bracken has had some injuries?

Bracken has quite simply been pigeon-holed by both current and former test selectors as a specialist one-day bowler. Which is ridiculous IMO.

steve, do you even know who ian harvey is?

the way they are bowling now, they are virtually clones of each other, except that bracken is left handed and maybe a yard faster.

i suppose bracken is a hack as well?

BIG CALL :shock: :shock: :shock:

meanwhile.. the umpire screws up, calls leg byes for an LBW appeal

So SAf refer the decision... but the problem is he smashed it onto the pad.

Nothing wrong with being the aggressive player, as long as you are selective with your shots. I haven't seen what Hughes is hitting, but Hayden tried to hit EVERY ball out of the park, irrespective of whether it was there to be hit.
