Which was the original point, but I think that's a tad harsh on Nevill.

In Neville's defense he had to do a lot more keeping.
Right. The two series were so awful I am misremembering some things.

Geez losing those series was heavy.You didn't have one in 2012 either and then 2014 came and it was the same story
Maybe we should play all our Test Cricket in Australia, would probably make us more money than playing at home.
Playing India in Australia would make a TON of money, more than us playing the Windies at home.

Why the need to post again?Australia being annihilated at home.

Pak might still lose to them though.
Btw congratulations South Africa. Well played. When was the last time a foreign team win 3 consecutive series in AUS?

West Indies apparently did it in their heyday and England did it once in the 19th century.

Whatever it takes!!!
Windies in their hey day I believe.

I didn't realise it had been posted already
Also, stop being so defensive, keep your mind on the series which is currently occurring, in which Australia are being made to look like amateurs, as if SL wasn't bad enough for them.

Hey... that's #intent around here, sir.

From what I saw on that last morning session, the Aussie batsmen looked like they really lacked any clarity in their minds with regards how they were each going to go about their innings, this perhaps contributed to a couple of them being indecisive and getting caught in two minds, there looked a lack of confidence which presumably inhibited their stroke play and made them play at times rather cautiously, there looked an inability to play the moving ball due to some questionable techniques, they were a little unlucky in a couple of the dismissals, and finally it was a superb spell of bowling by SA.
Philander, Abbott and Rabada were absolutely spot on in their areas and strangled the life out of the Aussies, so all the above factors were brought about, or perhaps resurfaced, due to some excellent pace bowling.

Aussies will be fine, they have got 3 of the best players in the world in warner, smith and starc, hazelwood isn't far behind them, khawaja is international class, and their 3rd and 4th best quicks both seem to always be injured. the rest of them are all in such dire form they can't even contribute 20 let alone a decent score. They should try to get this team ready for the ashes next year:

Warner
Khawaja
Smith
Lehmann

Neville
Pattinson
Starc
Hazelwood

Good on Smitteh for having a crack at some of his players too.
Sadly, Khawaja gets a pass mark, but his dismissal was probably the worst of the lot. Set batsman, testing conditions, good bowling and he played that shot. The horror of what followed masked his own awful shot.
