I did mention that he dominated in AUS.
However, his footwork was atrocious. It made everyone from Javed Omar and Imrul Kayes to Sehwag and Chanderpaul look copybook. I'll have no problems if he scores runs against a variety of top ranking bowlers in a variety of countries. But from what I saw, a top class bowler like Philander would have had him out before he could pad up.
I'm one of his biggest fans, just in case you didn't already know. This is an honest constructive criticism. I really want him to not just do well, but to excel. I just thought his technique was loads better than what we saw.
