Yes, you forget just how good a bowler he was. But there's footage on YouTube of him bowling to Ponting and Kallis. Two of the best batsman of the era.

And he seemed to be the nemesis of Adam Gilchrist.

Re: So who's renewed their ST?

The u22 category was brought in to keep 18yr olds in the game.
It's an age where they probably have to start paying for their own ticket, despite not much money.

If you keep someone in a ST til 22, there's a good chance they stay on for life.
