Beny, wrong there mate, Salim Malik did play Warne with consummate ease, and Warne was made to look very ordinary against him in those series. In the early 90s Pakistan won their Test series comfortably against Australia, all the other spinners did well, relatively speaking, Warne did not, due to Malik's strangle-hold over him.
I don't debate it but I simply point out that the rest of his team was getting out to Warne who was man of the series against his team. HE may have been a very good player of Warne but it's unfair to suggest that therefore everybody else should be.

Regardless its really only a side point.
