I don't know why any one tell to replace Aussie team with women?All know they won the Worldcup four times.And has been runner up three times.In 1996 no one predicted Australia as there favorites>India,Pakistan,WestIndies where favorites and when tournament started after super six also South Africa,Srilanka ,India ,Pakistan,winsies where the Favored team.Aussies managed to get through semis with a five run victory.In 1999 WorlCup after loosing the second and third match in 1999 every one favored South Africa as a team to win worlcup.For wining the world cup they have to win all other matches and they did it in style.Look how they go through against SouthAfrica in the semis.In a world cup semiFinal like that do u think Dhoni can make Donald run out in such a tight situation?I think in this worlcup Aussies will be the team to fear for Team India.If they come with 15 Aussie persons who know cricket.Do u agree?

ss, he is not briging girls to field, thats his personal choise... are you jealous of him?.... if you talk about individual characters majority of the indians will be in that catogory. you better talk about your own India than being jealous of a successful cricketer who contributed to game and have been part of invincible team...
Somebody in this forum had remarked that Warne should be made the Indian coach. Not sure, if the players would be happy with this decision. The man is a womanizer and would be targetting the wives of the players.

Whether he comes out of retirement or no-- hardly matters. But this does show-- Aussie cricket has hit rock bottom. Forget bench strength etc. its just that during their sunny days they had a core group of great individuals in Warne, Gilly, Mcgrath, Hayden & Langer who could make a impact with amazing regularity. With all of them gone-- they definitely are on the decline and someday will end up like the West Indies. Law of averages finally catching up?
I just can't forget Ian Chapell saying in an interview that Aus bench is so strong that they can have two different teams for ODIs and Tests and still be No.1 in both. Seems like bench is broken and no is left.

Ian Chappell is another joker who once said Ashish Kapoor is best Indian off-spinner.
Don't take Ian Chappell's comments so seriously. His brother made a mess of Indian team earlier & now destroying Australian team.

Ashish Kapoor was one wristy offspinner from Delhi who played few tests for India. Ian Chappell also commented Ashish Kapoor can spin the ball even on the glass.
Another foolish comment made by Ian Chappell was Mark Waugh was better fielder than Jonty Rhodes.

hehe. true. When we used to say that aus will decline eventually, the resident aussie experts scoffed at us. :)
