Excellent effort by a much understrength team. Nice that a few new boys got a chance to step up and have done OK.

by tac Sun 08 Nov 2009, 10:23

Dougy and McKay look the goods . . .

by Red Sun 08 Nov 2009, 10:44

Australia indisputably the #1 ranked ODI team now.

by skully Sun 08 Nov 2009, 10:54

Amazing what a carp side can be ranked no. 1. Shocked

by tac Sun 08 Nov 2009, 11:11

Led by the carpest of all carp . . Twatto . ..

by tac Sun 08 Nov 2009, 11:12

BTW, how nicely set up was that track for the spinners . . . guess they didn't plan on collapsing to Dougy and Mitch . . .

by Bradman Sun 08 Nov 2009, 11:31

Now, now taccy. You'll be accused of racism. Or common sense, not something I normally equate with you.

PMSL. Bubbles, Midge and Watto took 9 wickets between them on a dusty bunsen. Cool

Goodness me the Indians are poor (at cricket, not in the sense that the majority of their population are living in poverty). They're meant to be a bullwark against Aussie cricketing domination and they're about as useful as the French.

I almost want to burn an effigy myself.

I find it amazing that in a population of 1 billion, this current XI is the best that BanIndia can scratch up. Nehra, Kumar, Patel, Jadeja and Raina would be flat out getting a game in Sydney Grade cricket. Shocked

by Eric Air Emu Sun 08 Nov 2009, 11:42

Well how much of that 1 billion have the cricketing facilities available to them that your average Australian has?

I dunno EAE, how many?

by Eric Air Emu Sun 08 Nov 2009, 11:53

5 of them.

by tac Sun 08 Nov 2009, 11:59

skull, on the basis of the recent games in Pomgolia, Saffieland and Banindia, what would be our best ODI team?

I'm thinking something like

Marsh
Watto
Punter
Clarke
White/Ferguson
Huss
Paine/Haddo
Midge
Lee
Hauritz
Siddle/Bubbles/Ferny

by skully Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:03

Fair call, taccy.

Bog
POCson (did I just admit that????? FFS)
Drunky
Pup
Paris
Massie
Haddit
Midge
Bung
Haurie
Cot/Bubbles/Ferny

Looks as about a good a side as we can put on the paddock at the moment.

by tac Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:05

I'm starting to be a bit impressed with SHYTY . . . now that he never bowls . . .

by Eric Air Emu Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:06

Aren't you just a tiny bit embarassed by your copious use of nicknames?

by skully Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:07

Aye. Potentially the new Benaud, but gives away bowling, FFS. With the mighty TGM a near-neighbour, shirley he can get some tips to become a half decent leggie.

That's a negative, good buddy. Tis the way of we Antipodeans. Cool

by tac Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:09

I wonder if TAYne POCson reads this forum . . . it might be his inspiration to perform . . .

by Invader Zim Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:13

You know, Watson opening reminds me alot of Hayden...limited skill, good eye, on modern flat decks will make alot of runs.

by embee Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:15

Why did the game start at 8.30 am(Local Subi time)?

by tac Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:16

it gets late early in northern India . . . a bit like BillyLand

by skully Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:20

Midge loved it. The early morning juice helped his swing. Knocked over both Seaweed and the Gambler with lovely swinging deliveries.

by embee Sun 08 Nov 2009, 12:21

BCCoarIab shouldn't play games in Northern India at this time of year then ...Bunch of stoopid Modis
