Peak Ind couldn’t trash Australia. What makes you think they would have trashed Peak Australia and Peak Indies?? I could see them winning close series but thrashing both teams?? Nah.

How would 80s WI and 2000s Australia fare in unbeatable current India?

At home? I think Australia lost to much worse one.

They are probably losing. But a close series, 2-1 to India I think.
Not sure on who’s winning between India and Indies tho. West Indies do have Peak Marshall. That’s Peak Marshall to go with a ATG Xi capable of blowing the Indian batting lineup regardless of the surface.

Oh yeah, I agree with the Aussie one. Now on WI, on one hand that's true. But still on that series, Gavaskar and Vengsarkar averaged 50+. I think not having a spinner will bite WI, especially in a pitch like the recent NZ one, where pretty much Bumrah was not bowled for Sundar.

I think current India would beat those teams.

I don't think they lost because of age
yes they lost because they never were that good to begin with, heard your trope before

No they underestimated NZ.

More like Santner found his radar

Whatever it takes!!!
The worst part of any Indian defeat is the fact that it triggers salty to post all over the forum.

Just like O Keefe, Kuhnemann and Hartley did.

Pretty confident Australia edge out the Kohli Indian team 2-1 based on Warne and MacGill.
WI also win 2-1 or draw 2-2.

Like it takes a special skill to be sad and salty when the team you hate has lost a test and a series they were expected to win, and the team you love has won a test and a series they were expected to lose.
Jeez.....

I neither have to courage nor the patience after the end of a magnificent 12 year run of utter home dominance to engage in this **** show currently. The first ****ing thing he posts after team India losses a series is a post how Australia and WI would had won in India. It's beyond pathetic when they are getting whitewashed by Bangladesh. But well, I guess winning a home series in 4 years does things to a man.

Harper was no worse than what NZ has.
These lottery pitches are a toss up tbh, not to add ridiculous.

Found this really interesting. COF is how much the ball turned. Difference between the batting this game was NZ playing the balls that didn't spin that much better. Could have something to do with santner, he got inconsistent variable bounce I don't think any spinners on either side managed to replicate.

Yeah, Harper wasn't worse than Santner. But the main ingredient of Indian batting wasn't there, Cheye Pujara. Also Kohli is washed up by now. The bowling is still good, Ash-Jadeja-Bumrah just are having a horrible series, which is very unlike them.

Now, now. I am equal opportunity. After Pakistan lost to Bangladesh, I posted the below:
Greatest Test Series Victory
Congrats to Bangladesh. How does their victory compare to SL in SA and India in Aus?

The reason I bumped this thread was the humble pie for those posters who wanted to suggest WI and Aus would be thrashed.

This version of the Indian team is akin to WI in 1995-96. A pale shadow of what it once was in the decade prior.
