Woolmer commented that to win a game Pakistan needed to score 600 runs and take 20 wickets.

Here are the teams for the WA 2nd ix vs Pak game.

Pakistan
Inzamam-ul-Haq (capt), Yousuf Youhana, Shoaib Akhtar, Younis Khan, Mohammed Sami, Danish Kaneria, Yasir Hameed, Imran Farhat, Kamran Akmal (wk), Mohammad Asif, Shoaib Malik.

Western Australian 2nd XI
Adam Voges (capt), Justin Coetzee, Liam Davis, Sean Ervine, Aaron Heal, Sam Howman, Scott Meuleman, Matthew Petrie, Luke Ronchi (wk), Craig Simmons, James Sprague, Peter Worthington.

Preety decent 2nd XI team. Adam Voges recently hit the fastest ever 100 at state level. Sean Ervine the Zimbabwe outcast. Meulman a WA lower order bat (not sure why he isnt in the first team). Luke Ronchi is a rising star WK. Cootze is a normal WA player too although I havent heard a lot about him.
A few good bowlers there too. Some real pace.

He has taken 21 wickets at an average of 11 for Willetton in WACA Pennant Cricket this season.

James Sprague has also been picked to play his first representative match for WA. Sprague has taken 15 wickets at an average of 23 for Joondalup in WACA Pennant Cricket.
