That was a very uncomfortable dinner in the Hotel restaurant. Arrive when the game is in the balance then Travis carves them all over the place
for the next 40 minutes.

This is Australia's greatest WC win right?

latest quite often is labelled greatest, players, finals, matches, notice how in football the upcoming big guns clash is always the biggest game of the season........

 

[thierry henry]

Importantly, let us not forget that England bombed out horribly and I just let it happen with minimal trolling #CWC2023

No 99 and 03 were better

Probably 87 too but way before my time

 

[Aidan11]

Head just having fun now.

This is Australia's greatest WC win right?

Alot of similarities to 1999 is it not?

They lost their first 2 in 1999 and then won from memory won 7 on the trot to take the title.

Here,they dropped their first 2 and are about to win their 9th consecutive.

Why is Siraj bowling lol

100 kits delivered towards grassroots cricket

87 probably greater. 99 more of a thumping. 03 more elegant. 07 more inevitable. 15 sweeter (being at home). Each of the victories have been special. If we win this one, it will be great because it's the final frontier.

Why is Siraj bowling lol

we dont have a 6th bowler because these ****s never realise the importance of it

 

[Burgey]

If I was an Indian fan, I am not sure if I would really laud this team. It frankly is too bittersweet to build an ATG side and then have them so massively underperform when it matters.

You aren’t an ATG side without winning world cup(s). Any talk of a team being at that level before they’ve won one is always premature.

I also don’t think many Indian fans on here were labelling them that anyway, apart from a few brain dead blow ins. If they did I’ll dig them out and humiliate them tomorrow

I've actually been thinking about this and yeah it's certainly the most satisfying - no one thinks this is a great Aus ODI team that can basically win just by turning up like past teams, and then they started horribly, so to see them fight and scrap to this position is enormously impressive

 

[cnerd123]

I remember staying up till early in the morning in 2003 as a kid for that final and being utterly devastated. Today’s not as bad but getting flashbacks to that deep pit in my stomach. Oh well, fun while it lasted.

Hold onto those sweet memories of 2011 instead. Sachin being carried off the field <3

tbh we deserved this loss by setting up the tournament for Kohli to break his record

 

[subshakerz]

This is a running theme tbf. They turn listless in the field the moment there’s a little bit of pressure. Has happened in multiple overseas test matches as well.

When I suggested that months ago, the usual suspects hounded me. I wonder if they will agree now.

 

[King Kane]

ban odis

Just ban Australia from odi world cup finals to give the rest of us of a chance.

They haven't lost one apart from 1975 back when no one took them seriously.

 

[Shri]

3 of our 6 batters failed

 

[Spikey]

This is Australia's greatest WC win right?

07
03
15
23
99

Don't feel educated enough to rank 87

 

[Daemon]

India scored what 5 boundaries after Head took that catch? Was a massive turning point.

Weird... Kohli & Sharma broke various records this tournament & still won't get the brass ring at the pot of the rainbow.

 

[TheJediBrah]

If Aus win this it would be the first time since 2007 that the home team didn't win* the World Cup


*2019's divergent definition of "win"
