Lol at you getting ecstatic with a draw in England but referring to a WC win as only good.

I'd personally take a series in in SA over a WC, but a lot of people like WC. Winning against Australia in Australia, in my mind, would surpass winning the world cup the next three times, really.

What? It would be a good thing.

Given the cliche of the Asian obsession with ODIs, it's always good to find a true (ie Test) believer from that part of the world. I couldn't agree more - finally winning in India in 2004 meant a lot more to me than any of our WC victories. Although the 87 win was special, as it was Australia's first tentative step toward recovery after the debacle that was the mid-1980s.

Also looking forward to see how Australia get along without McGrath and Warne.

That's what it's all about, baseless optimism.

You do realise that nobody has won a Test series in England since 2001 don't you? And that since then only India, South Africa and Sri Lanka have escaped with draws (escaped being a bit generous on the home team tbf). It's nothing to turn your nose up at, you know

Baseless was the wrong word. I should have said "blind optimism". You've definitely got grounds to be optimistic, but I get the feeling that even if you didn't, you would be anyway.Baseless?

I'm looking forward to a year in which no team, however victimised they might feel, takes matters into their own hands and refuses to come out and play. Realism is not a word I understand.

No I understand that, and I am not questioning him getting ecstatic over a draw in England... but it's just that WC means so much more to me.You do realise that nobody has won a Test series in England since 2001 don't you?
