4 of those wickets were of tailenders and rest of australian batsmen have not much experience playing in indian conditions, maybe apart from Smith who plays in IPL.
Anyways 7 wickets are 7 wickets and he is an allrounder so good luck to him.
Abid Nabi was the next, probably selling fruits in Srinagar now.
Typical generic criticism. Learn to appreciate for once. What was he supposed to do? not pick wickets because the quality of opposition wasn't good?

Rasool took the wickets of Cowan/Wade and smith.
Cowan and Wade will play the tests i assume.So not a bad outing for the guy.
Heard Bedi rates him as the best offie in India.
This suggests that his talent is justified as Bishan Bedi is a harsh critic of spinners as he believes any spinner who bends his arm is a chucker and so should be banned. Bedi once said that all of the Pakistan team bent the arms, including the quicks. I believe it was during India's tour of Pakistan in 2003-04 as written in Rahul Bhattacharya's book, On tour with India.
Rasool gave an interview today.He said that Bedi asked him to concentrate on his offie and flight.And asked him to first master his off spin and then think of the doosra.
He is a very very traditional off spinner in Swann mode.

Too bad Rasool is not Pakistani othehrwise Bedi would have said he saw him bending his arm 45° with his own (spectacled) eyes...

I wouldnt get too excited about taking a 7fer against our guys first up in India.
But if he has also done well in first class, perhaps a promising talent. India have capable spinners but not really anyone with that extra level of ability right now.
Oi, how rude! That's Dr Sir Jadeja to you, have you no morals or respect??Well never heard of him before this game. Hope he replaces our allrounder Dr Sir Jadeja....

Indian spinners are missing their biggest assist home Indian umpires. That is why they are so average now.
Bedi is an old fart who wouldn't recognize or acknowledge talent if it was in front of him. No one should take anything he says seriously half of the bowlers today are chuckers in his opinion.I won't read too much into the 7 wkt hall, but if Bedi describes him as an exceptional talent, then there is a reason to feel excited. I haven't seen bedi praising any Indian cricketer apart from SRT, and he's generally a critic, so he mst hav seen something that he went out of his way to praise Rasool.

All-rounder Parvez Rasool on Thursday became first cricketer from Jammu and Kashmir to bag an IPL contract, signing up with Pune Warriors for the 2013 season.
Rasool, who was a star performer for the Board President's XI by grabbing seven Australian wickets, was being chased by at least three franchises but the 24-year-old signed on dotted lines for the Sahara Pariwar owned franchise.
"A few franchises approached me but it was Pune who approached me first. So it was an ethical decision to join them as they had shown interest much before the Australia match happened.
I am very excited and it is an honour to play in the IPL and become the first cricketer from the valley to achieve this feat," an excited Rasool said over phone from Bilaspur where the Jammu and Kashmir squad is based for Vijay Hazare Trophy.
According to IPL sources, Kings XI Punjab were chasing Rasool as Chandigarh based franchisee's proximity to Jammu and Kashmir.
Since Rasool is an uncapped player, he will be getting Rs 20 lakh as per IPL norms.
"Parvez is an asset for us. He is a capable all-rounder and since we can have only four foreigners, his batting and off-break bowling makes him a good choice in the playing XI.
"Also the kind of exposure that he will be getting interacting with international cricketers will be phenomenal. Trust me, he can be a good player in the longer version too," a franchise official stated.
Rasool is excited that he will be getting a chance to share the dressing room with Australian captain Michael Clarke.
"It is a dream come true for me that I will be interacting with Michael Clarke. Also having Yuvi Paaji ( Yuvraj Singh) will be a bonus. I have just started my journey in top-flight cricket and this stint with Pune will only help me grow.
I hope that I will be able soak in all the information that I can get from our coach Allan Donald," he said.
On asked what this IPL contract meant for budding cricketers of his state, Rasool said, "I would like to convey a small message for all my well-wishers in Jammu and Kashmir.
I would like to tell them that it was not only talent but hardwork that has helped me realise my dream. I believe, parents would now believe that someone can make a decent career out of cricket even from our state."
His mentor Bishan Singh Bedi has never been a great supporter of IPL and probe Rasool on this, he laughed and said, "Bedi sir mujhse bahoot pyar karte hain (Bedi sir loves me a lot)."
Bring him on vs Pakistan in T20s
Shahid Afridi is ready
Truly a great news as our spin cup board is staring bare at us. This kid has had a good domestic season and backed that up with this performance. Yes it is the oppositions first match and he didnt bowl to a first choice XI, but that was not his fault.
He was given a job and he has achieved that stupendously. Indian selectors, please give this guy more opportunities in our A tours (and keep him away from T20 - IPL included). The most heart warming thing is that he flights the ball and is a conventional offspinner - a rare species nowadays and so vital for the longer format.
That he is a Kashmiri is just incidental - I care a damn about who represents India - what is required is the ability to deliver the goods...go Parvez!
...........Interestingly, it would be hard for him to get in team becoz of Kashmiri origin as he was questioned by Indian Police for involvement in some attack, which is no surprise for any Professional kashmiri
Yeah, I guess that's why he's already played for India A.
Oh I guess that must have been before the 'attack'.
Actually he in the scheme of things only becoz Bishan Singh Bedi is coach of J&k and the same likes conventional offes a lot, otherwise You can find exceptional fast bowlers from J&K which are 145+ which never get a look in and end up selling apples.
Another interesting thing to watch is if he plays for India, what would be reaction of People of kashmir when anger against India is increasing exponentially here.
Ashwin has to perform really bad for this guy to come in the test team.
I would try this guy ahead of Ashwin ... or play both.
Looks like Sohail Tanveer
^ U been sleeping or does only a muslim counts as a kashmiri for u ?
For them only Muslims are Kashmiris and humans rest dont count.
No i was pretty much awake but i guess you were on a trip to mars? How did u find the aliens? Did they dance for you?^ U been sleeping or does only a muslim counts as a kashmiri for u ?
Let me reply to this nonsense of yours in a slightly different way.For them only Muslims are Kashmiris and humans rest dont count.
Rasool was detained by Bangalore police for questioning in 2009 in connection with suspected presence of explosives at the
Chinnaswamy Stadium. He was given a clean chit a few days later.
madplayer you should be happy he is playing for India..start practicing maybe one day you too might get a chance to represent your country i.e Hindustan![]()
Oh well a kashmiri finally
getting a chance.
Please show me where i have written i'm not happy for him??? I just wrote
and God knows why many of our Indian friends got mad at it and started talking trash that we consider only muslims as kashmiris. You tell me how on earth did my post even indicate towards any such idea?
Yes I support Pakistan team like most kashmiris do but I am happy for parvez as are all kashmiris. He has chosen cricket as a way to earn his living and it shouldn't matter if he plays for india or australia.
