Square Drive Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 A Supplement for 'Whitewash club of 2013' Thread Whitewash (sport) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A whitewash is an informal term in sport describing a game or series in which the losing person or team fails to score. A whitewash may be in a single game where the loser fails to score any points or goals, or in a series where the loser fails to win a game. In the United States, the former is more usually called a shutout, while the latter is termed a sweep (or alternatively a 'clean sweep'). It is not typically used for low-scoring games such as association football or baseball, where a failure to score is not particularly rare; in football the winning team's goalkeeper is said to keep a clean sheet if they do not concede a goal, while in baseball the winner pitches a shutout. Cricket In cricket, the term is used when one team wins all the matches played in a particular series. Australia's 5? defeat of England to win the 1921 Ashes series. West Indies' consecutive 5? defeats of England in 1984 and 1985-86. These two results are also commonly labelled blackwashes because of the dark skin of the West Indies players. Australia's 5-0 defeat of the West Indies in 2000-01 to win the Frank Worrall Trophy Sri Lanka's 5-0 defeat of England cricket team to win the 2006 NatWest Series. Australia's 5? defeat of England to win the 2006?7 Ashes series. India's 5? defeat of England to win the 2008 Hero Honda Cup during England's tour of India. India defeated New Zealand 5? to win 5 match ODI series in end of 2010. New Zealand was touring India. Bangladesh defeated New Zealand 4? to win 5 match ODI series in October of 2010. New Zealand was touring Bangladesh. England's 4-0 defeat of India to win the Pataudi Trophy during India's tour of England in 2011. Australia's 4-0 defeat of India to win the 2011-12 Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Currently Indian test cricket team holds the worst victim record by getting whitewashed on 8 occasions. This includes the most recent 4-0 whitewashes they received from England and Australia Respectively. Eventually India's oversees record in last 8 test matches read as 8-0. A lot of Indian cricket fans are now praying that their team won't record a whitewash of whitewashes in oversees test when they tour South Africa later this year. All time list of whitewashes; My contribution to this thread; Whitewash club of 2013 :bow: *Please note that highlighted text is not yet part of the Wikipedia article.

Also you don't give us some sporty wickets mate sporty of what kind mate? you are ftb, we are better at it.. you bowl spin we play spin better, we are crap in pace bowling you are crappier than us in it.... you are just a worse version of us...
carnish Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 oh yes mate...def :winky: but hey your national team has not won a test in India..Zim has won one i guess.. LOL:cantstop: Just checked ... India has never lost to Zimbabwe at home although Zimboks have beaten us twice in Zimbabwe ... In fact they have drawn here only once in 2000 at Nagpur and that was the same game in which Flower got that 232 ... highest score by any wicket keeper ever. Hope that record is broken by Dhoni tomorrow. he is just 27 runs away.
