I'm sure pieterson did well but i cant remember seeing a great bowler being taken to the cleaners like Warne was by Sachin. I remember the hype over that series and about Warnes confrontation with Sachin. The latter made an effort to practice against the outside the leg stump line by a leg spinner.

And Sachin absolutely destroyed him. I personally havent seen Warne being treated like that ever. Not just one innings of being battered but consistantly over a period of a number of years having really no answer. When Warne went around the wicket Sachin came down the wicket first ball and clobbered him for six. Then he would sit back and cut him on the off. And it continued in the one day series in Sharjah during those magical knocks in the semis and final. Even in Australia it would have happened in the following series had Sachin not got a raw deal from the umpires. Fabulous memories.
