Fiery exchanges between Australia, Pakistan okay for the game: Bollinger
December 29th, 2009 - 1:14 pm ICT by ANI ( Leave a comment )Melbourne, Dec. 29 (ANI): Australian left-arm fast bowler Doug Bollinger reckons the fiery exchanges between Shane Watson and Pakistan’s Mohammad Aamer are good for the game.
According to The Sun, the pair were involved in an entertaining duel during day three of the Boxing Day Test at the MCG, with the highlight coming when Aamer felled Watson with a bouncer in the 12th over of the final session.
Aamer proceeded to blow Watson a kiss and clap his hands in front of the opener.
Bollinger said: “It’s good for a bit of fire and flair to come out in a game. Fast bowlers are meant to be angry and have a bit to say and Watto batted well and stepped up.”
Watson remained unbeaten on 64 as the hosts reached 111 for three at stumps - a lead of 307. (ANI)
