Australian Humbled attack can't win Cup

You thought journalists from India writing on Cricket are fierce , take a look at what Malcom Conn writing in http://www.foxsports.com has to say

"LIKE a horror story? Take a look at the figures for the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy and figure out how this attack can possibly defend Australia's World Cup crown?

On present indications it has no hope. If Brett Lee cannot recover in time from a serious ankle injury, and he remains in grave doubt, then the attack that was humiliated by New Zealand during the past week will be the same one fronting up in the Caribbean during the next two months.

Unlike the batting, which was missing four of the top five players in the order, the bowling has no such excuses.

And if Stuart Clark eventually replaces Lee in the World Cup squad, he should not be looked on as any sort of saviour, despite the unresearched hysteria pedalled by sections of the Sydney media.

Clark has conceded an average of 6.4 runs an over, more than a run a ball, during his past 10 limited-overs matches.

The bowlers in New Zealand, from what was so recently the best one-day team in the world, were completely shamed."
