ప్రపంచకప్లో ఆస్ట్రేలియా గెలుపు స్పిన్పై ఆధారపడి ఉందని అంటున్నాడు ఆ జట్టు మాజీ సారథి పాంటింగ్. మిడిలార్డర్లో స్పిన్ బౌలింగ్ను ఎదుర్కోవడంపై దృష్టిసారించాలని.. స్మిత్, వార్నర్ రాకతో జట్టు బలంగా తయారైందని తెలిపాడు.

స్పిన్నర్లు బాగా బౌలింగ్ చేస్తేనే ఆసీస్ విజయం సాధించగలదని పాంటింగ్ విశ్లేషించాడు. 12 నుంచి 18 నెలలుగా స్పిన్నర్లు ఆడం జంపా, నాథన్ లియోన్ అద్భుతంగా బౌలింగ్ చేస్తున్నారన్నాడు.

"స్మిత్, వార్నర్ రాకతో ఆసీస్ బలపడింది. వారిద్దరూ స్పిన్ బౌలింగ్నూ చాలా బాగా ఎదుర్కోగలరు. ఐపీఎల్లో పాంటింగ్ అద్భుతంగా రాణించాడు. వీరిద్దరూ చాలా ప్రతిభావంతులు".

STORYLINE:
John Walker Lindh, the young Californian who became known as the American Taliban after he was captured by US forces in the invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001, is set to go free after nearly two decades in prison.
But conditions imposed recently on Lindh's release, slated for Thursday, make clear that authorities remain concerned about the threat he could pose once free.
Lindh, now 38, converted to Islam as a teenager after seeing the film "Malcolm X" and went overseas to study Arabic and the Quran.
In November 2000, he went to Pakistan and from there made his way to Afghanistan.
He joined the Taliban and was with them on September 11, 2001, when al-Qaida fighters attacked the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon.
The US attacked Afghanistan after the country failed to turn over al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden.
Lindh was captured in a battle with Northern Alliance fighters in late 2001.
He was present when a group of Taliban prisoners launched an attack that killed Johnny Micheal "Mike" Spann, a CIA officer who had been interrogating Lindh and other Taliban prisoners.
Television footage of a bearded, wounded Lindh captured among Taliban fighters created an international sensation, and he was brought to the US to face charges of conspiring to kill Spann and providing support to terrorists.
Eventually, he struck a plea bargain in which he admitted illegally providing support to the Taliban but denied a role in Spann's death.
Lindh received a 20-year prison sentence.
He served roughly 17 years and five months, including two months when he was in military detention.
Federal inmates who exhibit good behaviour typically serve 85 percent of their sentence.
His probation officer asked the court to impose additional restrictions on Lindh while he remains on supervised release for the next three years.
Lindh initially opposed but eventually acquiesced to the restrictions, which include monitoring software on his internet devices; requiring that his online communications be conducted in English and that he undergo mental health counselling; and forbidding him from possessing or viewing extremist material, holding a passport of any kind or leaving the US.
Authorities never specified their rationale for seeking such restrictions.
A hearing on the issue was cancelled after Lindh agreed to them.
The Bureau of Prisons said Lindh rejected an interview request submitted by The Associated Press, and his lawyer declined to comment.
