4-2 looks much better than 7-0 or 6-0 ot 5-1

Yeah' date=' it doesn't look bad. For the mediocre ODI team that we are we managed to challenge the Australians in 3 out of 6 games and win 2 of them. T[b']he maulings were expected as well given the gap between the two sides.

The only game we got mauled was in the 5th ODI, when they knocked the target off in 25 overs. By Aussie standards the rest were big victories, not maulings.

Could have been 3-3 if not for the Dravid-Ganguly brainfart!

How could we have beaten them in the matches we were outplayed in?

by not being outplayed? :haha:

I agree, nobody expected India to win against the Aussies, India are ranked behind all major teams in the rankings, even below england wqhich by the way is now a very good ODI team.
