Congrats Nenna, but the rain really fucked us over. We could have & should have had this game wrapped up earlier on today.

OHH there he isss!

Yeah man I still have no doubt that you're the better team. Cummins is just a freak and saved our arse.

Enjoying the moment i see.

Actually we threw the game away, had we not dropped two crucial catches in the first innings, we wouldn't have had a 20+ runs deficit which would have been out of your teams reach. Anyway, series drawn, some nice revelations for both teams. Cummins truly is a gifted player & one for the future, undoubtedly MOTM.

bahahaha.

Cummins is a real star.

Ponting and Haddin GTFO.

New Australian head coach Mickey Arthur.

 

[Byrone]

Is there such a huge crisis in Australian cricket that they couldn't get a local coach?

 

[Cirillo]

He was the best person available at the time. Australia hasn't had a good coach for 10+ years.

It didn't matter who was coach when your team had players like: S. Waugh, J. Langer, M. Hayden, R. Ponting, A. Gilchrist, J. Gillespe, G. McGrath, S. Warne all at the top of their game. They coached themselves. John Buchanan was the most overrated person in Australian cricket in the last 30 years...

Those were the days

Australians all suck at sport these days. Mickey Arthur has a good coaching record.

I want Warney to be our coach or maybe even captain

 

[Byrone]

Still with the rich cricketing pedigree Australia has, this slump could have & should have been avoided much, much earlier. You guys have so many young, talented cricketers that should have been intergrated into to team a long time ago.

 

[Cirillo]

True that! we're paying the price now. as long as we don't end up like the West Indies...

I know man that's what's so frustrating about it all. There's no shortage of young talent here. We've got a lot of good young cricketers as well.

But seriously, cricket Australia is just run by a whole lot of old dead shits.

The West Indies were dominant back in the day because they played a more aggresive style fo cricket compared to today. With the introduction of technology, safety gear & padding, it really slowed down their dominance along with their best players retiring.

Looks like they've been learning the tricks of the trade from cricket SA. The directors are constantly bickering & fighting over bonuses. Fortunately Gary Kirsten isn't a push over & will instill some discipline. Whether Mickey Arthur can avoid being overrun by cricketing selectors like he was, when he was SA coach is a whole different story.

Warney

 

[JuveJay]

BTW, RIP Basil D'Oliveira.

 

[Ahmed]

indeed, RIP.

revolutionary figure.

 

[Byrone]

RIP. Definitely robbed of a bright career in SA colours.

 

[HelterSkelter]

Just incase you people didn't know..

Mohammad Hafeez > Bradman + Warne

 

[Ahmed]

hardly...let's see how he goes against England in the New Year, am not convinced.
