Not sure Clint McKay deserves a nine, he did bowl well but he was part of a team that only took something like 13 wickets I think I read in four games, which isn't great however well he bowled. Finn certainly deserves more than him for me, and I can't see the argument for marking Tredwell the same as Finn when he only played one game, but apart from that pretty spot on.

McKay was a difficult one to judge. On balance I couldn't think of a time when he bowled badly, whilst Finn had the odd off spell. Tredders marked only on the individual game - I agree that comparing him to the others on those grounds is unfair.
