***Official: Australia in South Africa 2016 T20I Series***

****s sake why didn't they appeal

Which made the fact that we let it slip away in Capetown that much worse. Would've been a legendary series win

I don't think I've hated a sportsman's press conference more than when I saw Dhoni's after that 3rd test. We drew a test we should've won to complete a historic series win and all Dhoni said was that he was "satisfied with a drawn series", and on the other hand you had Graeme Smith, (whose team were barely hanging on when Boucher came in to join Kallis), say that he was extremely disappinted they couldn't pull off a win. Just summed up the situation perfectly. I could only laugh

Yeah I don't expect India to get closer to an away series win from the subcontinent in my lifetime. Apart from England 2007 of course, but we've more than made up for that with the subsequent thrashings over there.

Smith looks filthy at times, you wonder how he makes quite so many runs.

I guess Windies doesn't count.

I don't think we'll win a 4-5 match series overseas against good opposition for a long, long time. If only the last England tour was 2 matches..

Oh yeah totally forgot about them. No they don't.

Amazing!

 

[Daemon]

that's a proper fluke. See this in club cricket so many times with old ****s who can't get to the ball.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Haha wow. Ridiculous catch. Would have been a sitter if he was positioned a bit better too.

Could've won in NZ tbf. The only difference between the teams was two ridiculous McCullum innings. If Boult and Southee continue being rubbish, we could have a chance. Not likely though.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Woah

 

[vcs]

Oh that reminds me, we also won in NZ in 2009. We actually played ok in 2014 also, I guess, but those results were very hard to take.

 

[Jono]

09 in NZ good series. Gambhir match saving knock in the 2nd test.

 

[Daemon]

Love how all the Indians have deserted the washed out Asia Cup thread and started talking about India in this one

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Definitely like Warner at 4 a lot more than the other options. Hope they stick with it through to the world t20.

 

[Jono]

This has Faulkner finish written all over it

 

[vcs]

Wiese getting clattered here.

 

[Daemon]

Did Mbangwa just name everyone and his dog but forget Nevill

 

[Jono]

So many bottom edges

 

[Daemon]

stop with the length balls ffs
