zia: "Olivier is such an ordinary monotonous bowler with minimal seam/swing and a fixed length. Its just the incompetence of Pakistan batsmen to cope with short balls that they have gifted him wickets. Don't see him getting much success against more accomplished batting lines like NZ,India" --- He averages 21.92 over 93 FC matcches...384 wickets...
