I think Aussies are very confident of themselves. Even the new players who come to the side deliver mind blowing performances as we saw in the third one dayer from Clarke. That is just because they have a feeling in the mind that they are world champions and that gives them confidence to do any difficult task with ease.
The present Austrslian team is good no doubt, but in all their match winning, one tends to overlook the amount of luck they have. Be it their batsmen, their bowlers, even the fielders at times!! they are lucky that 20 odd good players have surfaced all at once!! thats what makes them win. Add to that the leniency (FEAR?? I cometimes wonder...) shown to them by unpires or cricket boards by letting them go scot free for anything they do. I think they should be banned from cricket for their misbehaviour..then they'll understand...those proud Aussies
Just look at the aussies: how consistent they always are: You have got to give this much credit to them: It was realy difficult to decide who should be given the man of the match award: The bowlers did their job, the batsmen did theirs. Amazing!
The Aussie team is great in both tests and one dayers. Their unbroken streaks will never be broken in history except by themselves!
They are so good that the rest of the world tries to tarnish them by accusing them of sledging, which everyone does from time to time. But they just don't dare it to do it to the aussies because the steely nerved guys would only get more motivated to win. And the cowards accuse the aussies. Give it back to the aussies if you have the guts!!
I will like to know that why west indian batsmens are not scoring atleast 250 runs. these are the same batsmens who scored above 300 runs almost in every match in india is it affecting the absence of carl hooper.
What makes this team tick is not 11 extra-ordinary players, but how they gel as a team. Hansie's team was unbeatable, but they still had a bad record in crunch games..
windies have great oprtunity to win the third odi match. they have long batting lineup but they were not able to get it. i think they have no luck against aussies.all of his planning failed against aussies.
