ur real mistake was not to send watson as an opener!!!!
you chose paunikar who scored 9 runs of 15 balls!!!!!
where as u say watson bogged down a bit but did u see the score of watson and the strike rate ? 22 of 13 at a strike rate of 169 which is the highest amongst all!!!!!
accept the fact that u failed badly as a captain and all ur calculations went wrong!!!!!

he should have fielded the same winning caombination even if it meant shane watson will warm the bench.other blunder was not playing Botha at #3,he would have carried on with the momentum he got with the previous two matches.

How many players have the ability to score 22 in 13 balls???? Next youwill say that 13 in 13 balls is very common in test cricket.. LOL... Warne should have been graceful in defeat... Beating a team likee DD, he thinks that he has become champion...

22 from 13 is normal on ODI? Which part of world r u living? Strike rate more than 160 is normal in ODI? It is very good in T20 and unbelievable in ODI.
Go back to Warne claim, why he did not accept his own mistake. He sends Watson at 2nd down then what he expects from him. Why Dravid was opening the innings, his strike rate merely 100 and wasting. Watson is in good form and he could ve taken adv of first 6 overs where 2 fielders are out side of the circle.

i agree, why was paunikar opening the batting, the spot belongs to watson and why was menaria opening the bowling, shane warne makes some strange decisions at times which backfire
