Well I know that actual talk of cricket seems pretty off topic in CC these days, but this thread may belong there anyway! :p

Look, I have no idea what you people are talking about :ph34r:

Anyways, with all the stuff going on in CC, I thought OT would be the only place one could discuss cricket around here :p

Meh, stupid things like SCGGate08 won't stop people who want to discuss actual cricket from discussing it.

BTW, I'd be more impressed if you can give me some stats in the 14 games against Test-class teams. :p

In terms of raw runs, Ponting actually scored more than Hussey. Would not have guessed that off the top of my head.

Haha. One of those non test class games Australia had to really fight hard to win, and if it wasn't for a Ponting century just may have lost that match, therefore at least one of those two matches should count.

Indeed, the closest they came to losing during the streak was that Fatullah Test.

It's the team in the long-term, not the one-off of the match, which counts to whether the game should be a Test or not.

No, it wasn't, the closest they came was the 1-wicket defeat of South Africa.

I'd forgotten about that Langer game... that was an absolulte classic. One of the best heart-in-mouth ends to a test I have ever seen.

But, you said 2 matches should be dismissed because they weren't against test quality opposition, but that's ridiculous when they had to play at their best test match ability to beat that no test quality side.

They've had to be at the best of their ability and even lost to sides who're patently not Test-class any more.

Look, I'm not doing this wretched Bangladesh thing again and again. Bangladesh are not Test-class, I'd be interested in seeing some stats involving the last 14 Tests against teams that are Test-class which Australia have played. Gelman can either give me them, or he can not give me them. Really, nothing besides this is important.
