Australia

[Texy]

:hail: where do you produce such efficiency on the field? how your players never give up even when winning? how do you field, bat, bowl so well....superior to other teams? how do you create rookies into superstars on the field? Steven Smith, Nathan Haurtiz, Callum ferguson, Clint McKay .....wow just wow deserving champions of world T20 ............ superior in all formats ....year after year :hatsoff:

[Deleted_User_1]

Difference between Aus and rest of the world is ridiculous!! I don't care what the rankings say.......in my book they are champions and no. 1 in all formats....ODIs, T20 and test. If the current ranking do not quite show it, it will very soon!

They do it with good work ethic, a good domestic structure and utmost professionalism. Success does not get to their head like it does us. We have none of these attributes.

[Serani]

They are set up well for a shocking South Africanesque semi final loss.

[punjabi_khota]

Let them win a test against us ...it has been 7 tests and 28 months since they did it

[zen]

It more like they get the team combination right more often than not

[Deleted_User_1]

It will happen since our bowling has become toothless......bear in mind that our bowling was more potent we visited Aus last and in our home series in 2008

forget not giving up when winning at the state their team was in in 6 overs most other teams will roll over and die. :hail:

1. Commitment...they cherish playing for their country the most...quite clearly. 2. Hard work...just look how fit they are! 3. Challenging themselves to win from any situation 4. Seems like they compete amongst them as well. 5. Professionalism 6. Planning and execution.

[Ramzz]

We have yet to beat them in their home den, so they are def the better side at the moment.

make sure aus-basher dsr reads this & can realize this ind team weakness without the legends

[Precambrian]

They are without doubt champions in limited over cricket. They definitely look like to take the t20 world cup. But bear in mind, the conditions have without doubt helped them. All teams came in thinking the wickets would be slow low and packed with spin. But Australia played with 4 fast bowlers. They were lucky, but credit to them for using conditions well. But in tests they're nowhere near what they were. They got owned by South Africa, England, India. And if people think they're the best, they are just biased.

oh c'mon, they havn't chased yet. I hope the bat first one more time against windies and give them some thrashing and then lose semis. Its freaking 20-20, nobody is sure. It takes a blinder to lose the game

[cricket786]

the way Nannes hit the stumps today after a bit of fumbling i believe? was amazing.

I don't care what the rankings say.......in my book they are champions and no. 1 in all formats....ODIs' date=' T20 and test. If the current ranking do not quite show it, it will very soon![/quote'] I wouldn't say that they are best in Tests. Some of their current batsmen, especially pwnting, are hopeless against quality spin bowling on slower tracks. Look at his record in India. :winky: Besides they were able to win over us solely due to the bouncy track they got at Kensington. Remember we smoked SA on a slower pitch at St.Lucia. And south africa had Steyn and Morkel, the bowlers that are similiar in pace. In essence, had we played Aus and WI at St.Lucia, we would have pwned them as well. It is just the fate of luck that they got a nice agressive track to bounce us into defeat. And I just get a feeling that our pace bowlers, accustomed to bowling on slower tracks with change of pace, were thrashed on a bouncy pitch. I am not sure whether change of pace would be effective on a fast bouncy pitch. I am of opinion that ICF'ers are thrasing our team (in an amount more than they deserve).

Bottom line WI venue sucks for us big time Kaise deshdrohi Indian immigrants hain

[Sid]

batting ,bowling and fieliding :hatsoff:

[99.94]

As much crap as Australia gets on here it always warms my heart hearing such high praises!

[King Tendulkar]

They seem to thrive without yob ponting! Their battery of pacers and back up strength in the department is ridiculous. The strength they have in raw pace is the best the world has seen since the windies era!

[King Tendulkar]

Wrong India is best in tests!
