Steve Harmison gets a hatload of wickets, but Monty proves himself better - again

80002043

As is usual on their tours, England are getting a bit of thumping in a supposedly gentle warm-up match.  Steve Harmison, however, looks to be back to his best, taking 5-100 as the opposition were knocked over for 271. 

Of course, Steve's best also involves getting smashed for a few runs and his economy rate of 4.54 is not exactly Test class - not even ODI class frankly.

While Harmy is grabbing all the headlines for his five-fer, a more impressive and understated performance came from recently forgotten man Monty Panesar.  The Sikh of Tweak's figures of 11-2-27-2 show that his recent times in India with the England Badgers was not wasted.
