I have to say, Australia in the past one year has been better than I have ever seen them play. The best since 1996. They have almost looked invincible. And they have been exactly that too barring that spin mine of a pitch they got in India. And even invincibles can have one loss under exceptional situations which would mean though that they arent invincible. Which is why we have had only cricketing invincible team. Which is beside the point.twctopcat said:
There is many a slip between the cup and the lip. And it aint over till the fat lady sings. South Africa found that out by setting defensive fields in the opening session of the 5th day thinking the match may end in a draw.Swervy said:you mean you hope it wont
no assessing them by whos performing who isnt is. every player in the aussie side is performing(or nearly every player), about 6 players in the england side are, and only a few of them are even in the same class as aussies. do you seriously think hoggard, harmison, anderson,flintoff and giles can out bowl mcgrath, kaspa, gillespie and warne? simply bringing up the winning streak is pointless when you and everyone else knows that half the england side isnt performing and they are certainly performing well before the standard that they set in the summer.Scaly piscine said:
Yeah I agree. It's individual performances which have pulled us through again, namely Trescothick, Vaughan and Hoggard. It was a very good positive win for us and hopefully the momentum will carry into the final test.redt-maker said:
