The match hasn't started yet so you can replace him your self.

 

[WestIndian]

Man this is unbelievable, how did Australia get to this point?

WestIndian added 16 Minutes and 39 Seconds later...

I want Saeed Ajmal replaced please.

 

[Chewie]

I don't think you can have him replaced :sarcasm

 

[WestIndian]

I don't think you can have him replaced :sarcasm

Oh, and how so:sarcasm?

 

[Chewie]

Because he's not injured.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I was expecting that either North or Hilfenhaus wouldn't play, but I see they are both fit to play.

And Saeed Ajmal is just passed. He didn't play also in the 1st Test.

Surprisingly Aussie1st didn't include his team.

I was thinking of including three Pakistani bowlers, but I decided to include just two, so I could choose Johnson also. He is only the current Player of the Year. But I've got a feeling now (now that Australia is out for 88 runs) that the Pakistani bowlers will perform better then him.

The captains are divided like this:

Shane Watson: 9 (Abhas D0N Dare khaleel p.o.l shanewarne Wanderers WestIndian ZexyZahid)
Doug Bollinger: 1 (Akash00)
Simon Katich: 4 (AkshayS Aussiebushrange khalek nuffa)
Salman Butt: 4 (ali_ed2001 Chewie deathrevenge9 Insomniac)
Ricky Ponting: 6 (AngryPixel Bargav DHONISINGH Meet pavan210 scion_sid)
Michael Clarke: 1 (Haarithan)
Mike Hussey: 2 (McLOVIN pavanbharadwaj)
Mohammad Aamer: 1 (send2yaari)

 

[SciD]

I always make Ponting captain, its my way of jinxing him.

 

[D0N]

Good performance by my players at the end of first day :happy

 

[Insomniac]

Either those who chose Salman Butt as captain or send2yaari should be on top at this point.. Intresting.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Not really. Salman Butt made 45 runs. A lot of people have Watson as captain and he has already 53 points (5 runs, one 20 points wicket and one 30 points wicket and 12 bowling runs), so they have the edge. Also Watson can take some wickets.

send2yaari is indeed at the top, because he has 90 points from Aamer (three 30 points wicket). If you double these points he has quite an advantage over the rest. But that can all change if Watson takes more wickets.

The one thing I am worried about is Johnson. He got a duck and didn't take a wicket. And the way he is bowling he probably won't get many wickets.
