the asstralian team, no, make that the crasstralian team, has been poor tourists, and very bad sport, sledging being their second nature, now they cannot accept their new status minus their now retired heroes.
ponting and his team now are no longer that hallowed team they once used to be. they now have to labour hard for their victories, people are not scared of them any longer. it will take time for them to get used to the new reality!

Change rediff, I would say. Enough of the US ass - licking.
i think the england team is lucky that they won this match. they won it only because of andrew flintoff.this shows that after the retirement of andrew flintoff the england team will struggle a bit bcoz he is the spinal cord of england team. but yesterday other than flintoff no other fast bowlers were able to take wickets at one time when clarke and haddin were playing it seemed that they win this match but it seems to be lucky that england won the match bcoz flintoff. but can england be the same test team after his retirement? sturat broad is able to take wickets even the new player onions was not looking comfortable bowling the aussies. the aussies are known for bouncing back after a loss. so may be in the next match they can come hard at the english men and play agressive cricket. so england wants to win that match or at least draw that match then the fast bowlers like sturat broad and onions should bowl well. bcoz at lords flintoff was the matchwinner for england but this cannot be expected everytime from him. so the rest of the bowlers should take up the charge. i also think that ricky should now quit captaincy and should hand over this job to michael clarke and see what he can do because already he proved that he can be a great captain. without brett lee australia is looking downpour in this series. their main bowler mitchell jhonson is also not in the best of his form. they dont have good spinners and so they are struggling.
This match once again proved that it is hard to beat the Aussies on a level playing field. Teams need either bad umpiring or controversies or under prepared pitches or even luck to beat them. Only South Africa has managed to beat the Aussies on a level playing field in recent times.

LOL. It is hard for current aussies to win unless they have umpires on their side. Proves how bad a side they have become. Just so you remember, india kicked aussies in their a$$ on a lavel playing field. How short your memory is. Too much convict worship.

what part of last 5 years u dont understand mate! Harbhajan singh the mad surd in there hmmm...
Its really really pathetic to see Indians praising England over this victory. If Indians feel that English men are less racial or more respectful towards Indians, then thats the biggest illusion. The Australians are also English men, but only a shade duplicate.

its nt abt the country or team. its abt individuals. right now australian team hv few individuals who r racist and arrogance. they deserve this treatment. morever, domination of 1 team is nt good for cricket so its gud 2 c tht eng won the match.
Re: Re: Pathetic Indians
by waste cricket on Jul 21, 2009 02:33 PM
As long as the domination is because of their abilities,there is no need to call it as bad. The mood or the feelings over here from yesterday is that, because Australians are racists,Indians are supporting England. Tomorrow if India dominates any sport, would all these people feel same? Lets not forget that England is as bad as or as good as Australia in every aspect.

by deewaker pandey on Jul 21, 2009 02:44 PM
as i said earlier, few of the australian players r disliked by us bcoz of their arrogance n ofcourse they r a bit racist.they r being disliked bcoz of some individuals n not bcoz they r australians.

yeah.... you would have hated the way Ponting behaved in the post match ceremony.... brings back stark comparisons in our mind (Syd 2008) as to how losing captains should NOT behave... right?... :) And Cricket Australia didn't help give any solace to us coz they didn't panic like BCCI calling blackmails left, right and centre to dismiss Koertzen "or else".... :) BTW, what's your definition of "racist"?... curious...

if India becomes number 1 (short time in t20) and could even defend their title once before wanting to be number 1 atleast have the andwas(bols) to hold on to ur title aussies are three times world champs and it all matters on the grandest stage the world cup till India wins atleast one normal one day cricket worldcup i think u should just the f..up
Re: ashes series

India being number one got nothing to do with ricky pudding. Aussies are a spent force. They are going to pass through phases similar to what WI went through.
Re: Re: Re: ashes series
by Varun on Jul 22, 2009 07:38 PM
Wow. you do too much peeking.
I know pseudo, it hurts when somebody comments bad on your favorite team. But u know what, it is time to grow up and accept the facts. Aussies are a goner. India will become whatever it will become, depending on how the team performs. Maybe your suggestions to ICC can help since you seem to hold so much power and do way too much peeking (into god knows what). Anyways pl do keep updating on your expert findings. Enlightened!.
