What makes the aussie team so good ?

[Ram]

How is the Aus team so good ? Not for a year.. not for 2 years.. for nearly a decade they have DOMINATED world cricket. How is this possible ? The last time i remembr the Indian team playing so well was in late 2005 nd some part of 2006 when they were superb in ODIs. We see the world of cricket. All the teams go through a phase when they are almost unbeatable nd then all of a sudden cant win a match even. But the aussies have consistently bucked this trend. Is it because # there is better cricket infrastructure over there ? # Bcoz there is better team culture and work ethic that is prevelant ? # more sophisticated coaching methods ? # Has it got something to do with Australian way of life itself ? How thos guys are supposedly tough. Mayb they carry it on the cricket field too and it helps them win tough matches and be ruthless. # Maybe the pitches there help produce batsmen who are technically superrior and bowlers with wicket taking ability... We should send a commitee from the Indian parliment to find out i think.. :hic:
