I think Ian Harvey when on his game could take any batter in the world on with da ball. He also is a great bat.
Better than Symonds.
Yes he's better than Symonds,but so are about 50 other Australian cricketers.

Only 50???
Harvey may be brilliant when on song ... they only trouble is he doesn't sing that often.

He is a very good bowler, but his batting lets him down.
The guy can bowl but his batting is just ****e...he can't make a run for Victoria so how is he going to make runs at 7 against the worlds best?!?!?
he made 2 ducks on the weekend....
and made hardly any for Dandenong b4 xmas when he played...

Well one of them was run out>>>>>>>>>
Ian Harvey will come and be a champ this world cup.
yeah Klinger hit it straight to short cover and ran. Harvey forgot to call no...
Harvey will be lucky to get a game, maybe if were playing Bangladesh or Canada THEn he may be called up as 12th man, otherwise he is there for sightseeing.
Ian Harvey, big whoopy doo dah, should of picked clarke or carseldine

Ian Harvey is one of the best in Victoria's line-up.But he keeps being ignored by the australian Selectors,who cant see beyond Brett Lee or Goose Bevan.

You want the selectors to omit Brett Lee? Haven't you been watching?

Oh ,yes i've been watching the Cricket.And Lee is Getting Runs and Wickets, NO DOUBT about it.But i dont see your point.
Whatever happened to Shane Lee? He would have to be better than any current allrounder if he was in form.

Yes, Shane Lee is a very good player but he must be injured because I haven't seen him play for a long time.

fat, out of form, and past it.
has the rather rare and dubious honour of the 'being someone's brother' tag being reversed.

He had a few injury problems early in the season - but with the Waughs & Katich now in the NSW side when they weren't last season there's no room for Shane Lee in the side any more.
Not that inability to get a game for NSW stopped Gavin Robertson or Peter Taylor getting a gig for Australia.

Having not been an automatic inclusion at the start of the season, he is obviously struggling to get back in... whether this is just injury or not good enough form, I don't know.
But I wouldn't write him off, as a state cricketer at least. He is 29 and has shown he is a very good state & county player, something which his occasional Australian ODI performances attest to.
With both Waughs nudging 38, and Slater in his early 30s and form varying between patchy and appalling, Lee is adequately positioned to push for a NSW spot for a few years yet. Admittedly the recruiting of Katich and the maturing of Clarke don't help him, but I figure within the next year or so he can claim his spot back.
I don't think he'll play for Australia again though, regardless of how well he plays for NSW in future. Time to move on and invest in younger players such as Watson and (possibly) Kremerskothen, Carseldine and Wright.

Is he only 29? I thought he was about 33 these days.
