    Langer a great cricketer

    Sehwag isnt really renowned as the king of consistency, is he now. How about comparing them to the current Aus batting order. Since Aus V India, As mentioned, Lehmann has 14 innings that have been over 20 runs, and 14 that havent Hayden has had 22 innings over 20 runs, and 6 that werent...

    Langer a great cricketer

    If you start from the India-Aus series in Aus last year, Langer has 14 innings where he scored more than 20 runs-nine of those half centuries or better, but also 14 innings where he scored 20 or less. That's one failure for every acceptable knock. Would you call that consistent?

    **Official** Australia in India Thread

    And neither were Martyn or arguably a couple of other Australian players. Cricket is a dynamic game, not static. Saying that world class players (in most people's opinion) like Punter or Warne could have never improved their performances in India is like saying that Kumble and Dravid would never...

    **Official** Australia in India Thread

    If I remember correctly, he did whinge about the Port Elizabeth pitch in the world cup when aus was bowled out for 200 odd, after beating NZ or SL. So I would say he may have still complained.

    Why Symonds?

    Am I missing something?

    You have to take into account that the 5th/6th/ part time bowlers will usually go for a lot more runs than the team average. 4.47 for a frontline bowler is a touch on the poor side, or at least average, even in this batsman's era.

    Murali may pull out of Australian tour

    Whether its Brett Lee or Muralitharan, the crowd shouldnt be an impact on any professional sportsman, not enough of an impact to stop them from playing, anyway. If this is the only reason Murali doesnt want to come, i hope the ICC penalises him, somehow. Theres always going to be jealous...

    Worst Number XI ever...

    Mcgrath was the only Australian batsmen not dismissed in the 2001 Indian test series. In recent times he's really stepped up a notch and i can almost confidently say he's in the same field as Gillespie. On the other hand, Mcgrath is a league above Macgill, whom I consider the worst batsmen in...

    World Cup XI's

    Werent Lillee & Thommo around in 1975? I thought Aus were favourites for that world cup, followed by Windies, so how come theres more pommies than Windies or Aussies?
