So if the boot was on the other foot leading into an ashes campaign and England had just lost a game they had all but won to make it 9 defeats in a row in all competitions then you Aussies wouldn't be doing the same?
Yeah.

We're not all hopeless trolls at CricketWeb here purely for nasty banter. Some of us actually want to have proper discussions about the cricket and not just start an online supporters' war and snipe at the opposition. Funny concept, I know.

Don't talk codswallop.

Great performance by Sri Lanka but Australia yet again have shown a fragility that keeps undermining them and you wonder how they can turn it round as losing becomes a habit and at the moment they have totally lost the know how to win cricket matches and being an England fan i am enjoying that.

Sorry if it pisses on your chips.:laugh:
This isn't a game of us vs. them, fliberrtyjibber. There's a line where banter crosses over to trolling and you seem to have been flirting with it a lot whenever Australia plays poorly. If your original post was more along the lines of the section underlined above and less along the lines of stirring up Australian posters, there wouldn't have been an issue.

For a guy as tanked up as Hastings he's pretty damn slow as a bowler.
The guy used to lean across and bowl big inswingers, but had some side/back (not sure which) issues because of it. Now he bowls with a mechanical action, and a very still and steady torso, which reduces his speed. What it does allow him to do is be very steady and consistent at the crease and he generally is very accurate.

He also bowls a pace that doesn't really allow the ball to come on, and still gets some bounce.

It's hard to stay angry when beaten by the Sri Lankans. They are simply the most awesome bunch of characters.

Sangakkara is pure class. Jayawardene is the number one nice guy in world cricket. Muralitharan has just as much personality as Warne. Matthews looks to have spunk. Malinga is the coolest cricketer outside of the Caribbean. The rest are quiet, easy to like guys. Love them.

Haha well I'm hard to troll if you don't know me well. Typical team-based trolls find me to very confusing. You could troll me pretty easily though because you know my weak spots. :p
I would never troll you!

Not when I want you to sim those ****ing matches FFS
