yes i take the game very seriously. Watching sport is supposed to fun yea, but for goodness sake you dont want to see your team playing poorly, as in Australia's case the best team in the world who set such superb standard being subjected to an embarassing performace againts lowly ranked bangladesh.C_C said:
well the WI dont usually collapse anymore.....that is a thing of the past...they either pull a transatlantic flight or fail to take off alltogether.Mr Mxyzptlk said:
I understand your annoyance. I was similarly in disbelief when the Indians collapsed at Mumbai. Be annoyed and exasperated, but don't let it dominate your mind and please don't start abusing the opposition.aussie said:yes i take the game very seriously.

Look all of you give me a break, i have much reason to be annoyed.

West Indies 148/0 chasing 291 for victory on a flat wicket with a day and a half to go.adharcric said:
you missing the point, Australia are the best team in the world & have been super consistent for 10 years plus, setting the bar that all international team wish to follow. Sri Lanka & West Indies (especially) are very inconsistent & unpredictable teams, so if Bangladesh have them on the run in a test match that would not be a MAJOR shock.chaminda_00 said:
They collapsed twice from winning positions on the tour of New Zealand.C_C said:
I think your belief that basically Australia should have just turned up and won the match, is why Australia are in the position they are in now. They didn't take the game seriously and now find themselves in a position where they might loss. But regardless your probably watching one of the greats fighting for his career and his team's respect. This innings by Gilchrist has been great so far and you should really forget about the score and just watch him bat.aussie said:you missing the point, Australia are the best team in the world & have been super consistent for 10 years plus, setting the bar that all international team wish to follow.

In Australia case if Bangladesh show them they had some ticker in this test match, i wouldn't have a problem once Australia still maintain there supremacy, but so far they have done more than just show Australia they have some ticker, but they have bloody outplayed them. Geez
Well then why is it such a travesty if they lose a Test match every now and then? Surely Bangladesh has suffered enough to deserve some glory. Stop being greedy.aussie said:
Applause to Bangladesh then.aussie said:In Australia case if Bangladesh show them they had some ticker in this test match, i wouldn't have a problem once Australia still maintain there supremacy, but so far they have done more than just show Australia they have some ticker, but they have bloody outplayed them.

well i wouldn't know because i was a CW memeber i 2004. But please given the way WI have been playing in recent times that wasn't a SHOCK to the world.Mr Mxyzptlk said:
Well stop moaning along the way and insulting the team that's outplaying yours to this point. I believe everyone will be happy when you do.aussie said:
I shudder to think that you're a fan of cricket at all. The attitudes which underlie this post disgust me.aussie said:
1.Australia>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Bangladesh. This gap in power and ability may explain why its a travesty if they do lose this test & why it has nothing to do with being greedy.Mr Mxyzptlk said:
, Gilly is tough.....BD needs to get rid off Dizzy ASAP and clean the Aussie innings from the other end.
