Norm Smith Medallist
Once again a magnificent innings from Mr. Bevan.
Thank god he was sent in, and conserved his wicket for so long, thus preventing exposing our brittle middle order from the devious bowling of a full strength Namibian attack.
If there is one man that can protect our average batsman from a disatrous collapse, it is Mr Bevan. The man who has a job to do, and does it with extreme commitment.
Never before have I seen someone so selflessly give up their career figures and strike rate, to do a job for the team, keeping the makeshift middle order of Symonds and Lehmann away from the best of the Namibian bowling.
If only someone like Hayden could be so selfless and not get out playing rash strokes, the Aus team would be in far better shape.
The Namibians themselves could learn a lesson or two, their team run rate during their innings of 45, was well above Mr Bevan, and thus they had a disastrous collapse. Rash shots and attempted scoring by the minnow africans.
The Canadians on the other hand have a better grasp of things, scoring 150 from their alloted 50 overs. Still a little fast for Mr Bevan, and hence their disgraceful waste of 5 potential scores written in red ink on the score sheet.
Thankyou Michael, I should never have doubted you.
