Dhondy Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Does anyone know some Australian cricket discussion forums ? I am not looking for some trash forums which are the messageboard equivalent of The Australian newspaper. Don't bother, Tapioca. They are all out there, hunched over their beer, drowning their sorrows, reading every word of what's written here, waiting for an opportunity to get back at the Gabba. They'll hold their sullen silence till then. Not exactly a gracious bunch in defeat, so kudos to Pete for at least coming out and copping it. Link to comment

Mandrake Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Fairytale victory complete with Bhajji getting both his queens - Hayden and Symonds:cantstop: Vintage Sachin, also superb show by the young guns Rohit and chawla:yay: Link to comment
Ram Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I cannot believe Australia has been beaten, COMPREHENSIVELY, in a big final. They are the world renowned masters of big final performances, be it their WC winning shows or even champions trophy or tri-series achievements. But for the FIRST time, in a LONG time, Australia has been beaten, EASILY, in a big final. God, I am so chuffed out today ! Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 Don't bother, Tapioca. They are all out there, hunched over their beer, drowning their sorrows, reading every word of what's written here, waiting for an opportunity to get back at the Gabba. No doubt weak aussie beer as well! Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 We Australians wish something upon you. And Indian cricket tour of your country. I'm looking forwatd to the Australians losing next match just so they can get the f*** outa our country sooner. I have been done with this tour for some time. "Honestly DwightShrute, who the **** cares? We just want to be done with this team of ******s. Let England, or the West Indies put up with them. If CA ever invites them back, I'll scream. Not once have we been able (as supporters) to enjoy a win. And most matches end in ugle contoversy. Some English fan put out a Youtube video called the "Spirit Of India" a while back. It had ugly incident after ugly incident with the Indians. It wouldn't be hard to throw one together this tour." http://www.thefanatics.com/forumsvb/showthread.php?t=4119 :haha: Link to comment

ludhianvi Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Good Victory by India. Especially Harbhajan getting both Roy and Haydos. That was priceless. Followed by brilliant innings from Sachin and not to forget Rohit Sharma. I hope that Tendulkar does not employ the leg flick against Lee in the next match either, atleast early on. He had been getting lbw quite a few times because of that. Chawla also did a decent job as well. The bowling of Harbhajan and Chawla brought pressure on the batsmen. Congrats. Do it once more!

This shows the complete ignorance and lack of knowledge that abounds on this board. Australia were comprehensively thrashed in last years ODI finals by England. Great win by India and well done. But Australia after losing McGrath, Warne, and four or five others are a way more inconsistent side than they were four or five years ago. Link to comment

Let's not make excuses, shall we. AUS looked to be getting along just fine before India came over. Link to comment
MattyG Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Some of you guys are just plain nasty, Australia were absolutely never in the hunt, destroyed by one man Tendulkar (never looked like getting out!) Hey Predator_05, why is the image of Symonds bowling left handed! Link to comment
