Oh idhaa! Idhu vandhu konja nALAchu. Already honorary Aussie Peter Roebuck has made sarcastic remarks on this. Tip: englandkaaranai thittaNumnA Aussie paper padikkonum. Aussie kaaranai thittaNumna english paper padikkonum. But icc-la mattum rendu perum koottu kaLavANigaL!
good list..Barbie gives this Eng team the edge over Windies and OZ team of noughties..also none of these teams won a world-T20 championship which makes the current Eng team rise to top all the more laudable..
P.S going to root for padosis :yessir:
PUP's Ist innings 151 should be one of his best 100's, in fact a top class innings something on par with cricketing greats, greatest ton's! The way he played was quite brilliant and at least for that Australia should have won it. But what a tragedy! :lol: rasikkama irukka mudila!
^did you saw the match live? he was doing a Raina impersonation against Steyn at the start :lol:
No, I started watching an hour after tea. Wickets were falling in one end, he played positively, healthy strike rate, in tough conditions, worst than tragic day 2.
Wizzy, idhula enna vekkam. Cricketla asia-asia bhai bhai. Vellaiyane veliyeru. Laudable position - only thing is padosis eppo evlo cutting vangittu enna pannuvaangannu solla mudiyaadhu - hair splitting business I tell you, supporting our padosis in Cricket

:shaking:
South Africa - The first time in 18 years(since inclusion after Apartheid) that they are going to win/draw a series against Australia in SA.
Australia have to win the series to manage their perfect record of not losing a series in SA.
2nd Test: Australia (probable): 1 Shane Watson, 2 Phillip Hughes, 3 Usman Khawaja, 4 Ricky Ponting, 5 Michael Clarke (capt), 6 Michael Hussey, 7 Brad Haddin (wk), 8 Mitchell Johnson, 9 Ryan Harris, 10 Pat Cummins, 11 Nathan Lyon
Kallis 7X4, 1X6 in his 43 off 33 balls.

Kambli suspects
New Delhi: In the wake of revelations made by the ICC's former chief anti-corruption investigator, Paul Condon, claiming that in the late 1990s, Test and World Cup matches were being routinely fixed, former Indian batsman Vinod Kambli, in an interview to a television channel, made a startling claim that the 1996 World Cup semi-final between India and Sri Lanka could have been fixed.
Looking back at the infamous match that ended with Sri Lanka being declared winners because of crowd trouble at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens, Kambli said that during the team meeting it had been decided that India would bat first should they win the toss. Thus, reckoned Kambli, captain Mohammad Azharuddin's decision to field was against the scheme of things. Kambli also said that there was a tiff between Ajit Wadekar, who was the manager of the team at that time, and Azhar because of a truncated practice session on the eve of the match.
He went on to say that the way the rest of the batsmen perished after Sachin Tendulkar had provided the team with a solid start was suspicious, and that it seemed like a deliberate attempt to throw away their wickets. Kambli also said that was he had been continuously asking the batsmen at the other end to give him support.
"Something was definitely amiss. However, I was not given a chance to speak and was dropped soon after. Our team manager at that time Ajit Wadekar was aware of everything. He had even written an article afterwards that Vinod Kambli had been made a scapegoat."
Wadekar, who was also on the show, refuted Kambli's claims and stuck to the stand that the decision taken in the team meeting was that India would field first on winning the toss.
Sri Lanka won the first semi-final over India at Eden Gardens in 1996. When chasing a total of 251-8, the hosts slumped to 120-8 in the 35th over and that led to crowd disturbance.
The players left the field for 20 minutes in an attempt to quieten the crowd. When the players returned for play, more bottles were thrown onto the field, forcing match referee Clive Lloyd to award the match to Sri Lanka, the first default win ever in Test or one-day international
Former TN and Punjab Off-Spinner, Aashish Kapoor, reacting to Kambli's latest claims, said that it was laughable for Vinod to believe that he might have been paid to lose my wicket. He said "Nobody in their right mind would waste even 100 rupees on goading me to lose my wicket cheaply in an international match. They know it is a natural process. In my adopted home of Tamilnadu, there is a saying 'What is there in bowl only will show up in the ladle'. Like that, except Azhar, the collective worth of the non-sachin batsmen in that team was that much only; that too, on that pitch. And we all know Azhar was a fixer anyway. So, what's new?".
Australia 100/0 (21.0 ov)
Oz dhumkatti velayaading. Congrats plum!
