2 Slow decks and 3 Crumbling in the end. Definitely a good decision to go with the 4 spinners now.

Its actually very important that we got those upset pitches. Our squad really isnt that strong this season compared with previous seasons but we proved in the first OD tour that we can still cause upsets on these decks.

Nice set of pitches we have got. Somehow never got a grip on the slow wickets, but am sure we will do awesomely well on the crumblers.

Lost our first match as Bangladesh won by 1 wicket.
Our batsmen didnt put up a good score as they were bowled out for a paltry 173. Only Zuhoor and Ponting put up some resistance.
Our bowlers did quite OK and picked up 9 wickets, but the runs on the board were never gonna be good enough for a win. At one stage they were 7-136, and we could have won it there, but didn't get the wickets quick enough.
