***Official*** Australia in India 2012/13

[Teja.]

We're ****ed now.

Get to level score, if lucky?

 

[Cevno]

This Ashwin fellow, can someone tell me if he can bat?

Has a test ton at Lords IIRC.

 

[Burgey]

I do agree with the commentators just now who said we play our best cricket when we abuse our opposition. It's always been the way. Other nations are naturally less aggressive and less manly. As you can see from that dismissal from Dhoni there, and both Jadeja and Kohli's hair cuts. Such a less masculine approach leads to fans such as dhillon coming into existence, and we all agree he's a waste of oxygen.

We are more overtly manly than these other countries, which is why we have dominated this game for much of its history.

 

[Maximas]

This Ashwin fellow, can someone tell me if he can bat?

Yes, has made test centuries in India before - probably better than Jadeja

 

[Teja.]

This Ashwin fellow, can someone tell me if he can bat?

There no way to be certain but I've heard murmurs before that he has a test century.

 

[Cevno]

Does anyone else think Vijay was wrongly given out - I would've sworn that came right off the arm guard, he looked pissed off as well...

Came of the gloves.

 

[Redbacks]

Perhaps Watto is a specialist skipper.

I know Clarke is conscious of the black eye pontings captaincy and attitude gave Australian cricket but unleashing a bit of mongrel is not a bad thing which I hope he takes on board.

 

[Son Of Coco]

What the ****'s going on here? Surely we won't actually be ahead after a 1st innings?

The irony there is that much worse went on under Waugh than Ponting.

He had the second best average out of the indian batsmen for the 9 months before this series started

 

[Cevno]

See make me Captain team gets in disciplined and brash and field placings work a treat.

[benchmark00]

A shorter man (Temdulkar for example) wouldn't have got a hand on it.

The logic is undeniable. Just like in this match, their manly yelling created the cracks in the surface which they can then exploit to get the other side out.

 

[ankitj]

They're learning from the best

Or just accept you were posting ****.

 

[Burgey]

**** yeah! Another one sconed. This is ****ing tops.

 

[wpdavid]

And Taylor

And Border

And both Chappells

Really? Do tell.

Whatever it takes....

 

[silentstriker]

Whatever it takes....

The essence of Australianism.
