Why the great need for an allrounder anyway ? I think the Aussies have proven we dont need one....
we could have just the 4 bowlers and 10 overs shared around Clarke, Martyn and even ponting if we were desperate,,with a batting order of hayden,Gilly,Punta,Martyn,Clarke,Hussey,"Bevan" we could afford the chance of having an expensive 10 overs..
...or even 6 batsmen and 5 bowlers , Gilchrsist is our allrounder anyway..
we have the 4 fast bowlers plus hogg ...i would've liked to see Harvey there as a bowler ..those slow seaming wickets over there would suit him and not Lee for instance..i think bowling at the death is a fine art..lee does it well at times but Mcgrath,kaspa and Gillespi can get it real wrong at times..
i think this need for a genuine allrounder is over rated..
