special K Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Yup' date=' right! Coz you "flipping murdered" Zimbabwe in 90s that you were ranked below them :finger:[/quote'] But we didn't lose to them. And won 2 series to 1 against India in the 90's. Link to comment
special K Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 All that matters. India have had the most whitewashes in test cricket. Link to comment
CG Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Inida have had the most whitewashes in test cricket. But Inida Does not exist . Link to comment
India-KXIP fan Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Inida have had the most whitewashes in test cricket. England will break yet another record at the end of this year then. Link to comment
Dhonuts Dhoni Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Australia currently doesn't have a bowler in it's front line attack (Pattinson, Siddle, Hilfenhaus, Cummins, Harris) who averages over 30.00. England's 'best' (Anderson) and the 'gender undetermined' beauty queen (Broad) both are 30.00+ bowlers. Bresnan and Lurch are ok, but they don't compare to the two sub 20.00 geniuses in patto_man and Cummins, nor for that matter are they as good as Harro. England are going to get annihilated next year. Twice. Their entire top order will be back on the plane to South Africa begging to play for a real cricket team. Link to comment

We've all seen what happens to the likes of Bell, Strauss etc when they face a decent attack (2006/07). The rotation policy will ensure Harris only needs to play 1-2 tests, plus there's the potential emergence of Starc, Cutting, Coulter-Nile etc. Australia will both win back and retain the Ashes.

special K Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Australia's batsmen are rubbish. Michael Clarke is good, Ponting and Hussey were great but are now too old. Pattinson and cummins have bowled to crap batsmen They'll be hit all over the park. We only need to score 500 between both innings to beat Australia comfortably. They have no decent spinner either.

Aussie-r-best Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 My my our Indian and Australian friends have their shovels out. Just think how much humble pie you guys are going to have to eat if England best you in India and Aus. we are away of course so not supposed to win apparently, but we will see. India have never beaten Aus 3-1 at home or ever won a series in aus. So by a lot of your guys thinking youi should never have been number one. As Special K said, you guys are struggling to be number 7 at the moment and the way you are playing you are going to lose in OZ 4-0 just like in Eng, so really you should keep quiet as your crap Yep England won 3-1 last vist here.. played well and won but one series is not the basis of a great side... As for the records, the only thing I can think woud be worse than losing 4-0 in Aus would be losing 5-0 in Aus... Has England done thet in the last 2-5 years.... hahahahahahaha If you are going to quote people in support of your arguements (and you have some really good ones imo), probably not best to quote Special K, the same guy that believes Anderon revers swings the new balll hahahahahahahahahaha.

Aussie-r-best Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 We failed once When did India last score over 300 in a test innings away:hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: These days I expect to see double figure Indian scores coming I think Bangladesh will beat you soon:hysterical::hysterical: Was about 2-3 weeks ago in Sydney 2nd innings (scored 400)... When was the last ime England scored 300... we'll compare time periods (or wait for the inevitable excuse - the real pommy skill)... Oh and you can't count the fact that it took you both innings against the Pakis to marginally get 300.:hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: Link to comment
