The Cricket Discussion

[Glorious]

god i am annoyed that we are way too good, i wanna keep winning series' but at least give them 1 test win

 

[Deutschland]

I don't mind that we are way too good, I just mind that they aren't

 

[Bilo90]

dont worry.. us pakis will come back and be kicking you asses harder than ever.. just watch

india lost to bangladesh.. hahhahahahahahahahaahhaa.. thats really sad

 

[Deutschland]

LOL I KNOW! But.. yesterday.. India destroyed Bangladesh. Like I said, 5/348. Tendulkar and Sehwag - awesome opening partnership, set up the innings. Then Ganguly and Dravid came in, a steady partnership through the middle, then Yujrav Singh hits a 27 ball half century and 69 off 34 or something

Nah, to be honest, I think the 4 top teams are Australia, India and England, with South Africa 4th.

Australia - Obviously.. :P

India - A team with players like Tendulkar, Sehwag, Dravid, Laxman, Ganguly, Harbajan and Kumble has to be there.

England - Strauss is amazing. Harmison is one to watch. An overall good mix of players.

South Africa - Kallis... Hes been around for a while, and hes only getting better. Smith - already captain of the side, hes great.

lol

I thought he was talking about the South African side, but meh.

The loss to Bangladesh really seemed to fire up the lads for the next game, and we came back to hammer them and win the series. Surprise losses can sometimes be expected with experimental lineups. For example, India have lost to Kenya on a couple of occasions when there was nothing to play for. I don't want to take anything away from the Bangladeshis, though. They beat the opposition that was put in front of them and, according to reports, played like a team possessed. Congratulations to them on a great Boxing Day performance.

Great days Cricket yesterday to goto at the MCG.

The weather at the start of the day looked bad but it was delayed for 45minutes at the start of the day, and we got a full days cricket.

Day 3 is so often the turning point and after arguably 6 good sessions from Pakistan, Australia turned the tides. 300+ runs and 9 wickets with Australia on top at the end of the day made a great day.

Plus seeing Martyn's century and Gillespie 50 and Australia rip through the Pakistan lineup it was just a day

I can't wait until we play England or South Africa. Mainly England. THAT will be good cricket.

(In the SAF - ENG test, England were like 195 runs behind in their second innings - Strauss and Trescothick mounted a 273 run partnership.)

 

[celtic_bhoy]

im loving this right now, the english think they can beat us, i cant wait till we sh!t all over them next year

 

[Deutschland]

Lol. Gotta give it to them, what a fight back, from 200 runs behind, they set South Africa about 400 to win

I do...I think youll find the official test rankings and a vast majority of the cricket media in the world agree with you at the moment aswell...

England are far and away the worlds 2nd best at the moment, India have been poor since their last tour of Australia, and South Africa have gone a long way down hill...England have just gone up and up...

 

[Bilo90]

yah alex is right.... england are getting better and better every game...

ok well anyways.. dont worry, dude, pakis are gonna come back.. just watch.. you'll be crying when we in the world cup and come back in this series ... god, who am i kidding .... we need to focus again, we were doing really well until now..

pakis r going down as long as i am alive, well if u say that england r 2nd best that good to know, but India is just in bad form rightnow, it will take 2-3 months to come back.

How about Bangadelash (Sorry don't know how to spell it)
They won thier first ever test match (i think) a few days ago, they beat India but don't know if India had a 2nd String side.

 

[Deutschland]

?

They beat India in a one day match very recently. I don't know about a test match though.
