It normally requires the batting side to be very stupid to get dismissed for 127.And a couple of Australians were. Hussey was quite silly. Ponting was extremely silly.But what was most striking about this collapse was how little Australia c...(more)


Where were you when JFK was assassinated? Where were you when Armstrong landed on the moon? Where were you when Pakistan won the World Cup? Where were you when 9/11 happened?This most basic of questions is usually reserved for momentous eve...(more)

Simply put, there is nothing about the upcoming Australia v West Indies series that would excite the reasonable woman or the average cricket fan. A West Indian cricket system and team in utter disarray and an Aussie team with no real crowd ...(more)



Well another Ashes series over and I am sure the reviews and respective post-mortems are already under way, at least for the Australian camp. Despite the fifth test being a lop-sided affair and ending inside four days, the 2009 Ashes has be...(more)

When Australia lost the 2005 Ashes, the scapegoating and finger pointing was immediate, fierce and frantic. Billy Bowden. Ricky Ponting. Breath mints. WAGS. God. John Buchanan. Gary Pratt. The loss was such a shock, there was plenty of blam...(more)

For once you can’t blame Ponting the captain. Captain Huss killed player Huss. Of all things, it was a one-day series in New Zealand. Feb. 2007: Huss captained a happy bunch sans Ponting and Michael Clarke. The team of minions included Ha...(more)

This is how I saw it: Vettori high fiving, so someone was out – hope it’s not Dilshan. Replay. Dilshan facing, so it is Dilshan. No wait, that’s not a catch, the ball ricochets off Vettori’s hand, hits the stumps, and knocks the bai...(more)


Unlike our dearth of spare batsmen, the Australian selectors suddenly have a glut of fast bowlers to choose from. Brett Lee is 100% fit and ready to go. Stuart Clark has been waiting all series for a bowl. Both are class acts. But the four ...(more)

Ponting beyond Border, Bhajji beyond it.Look deep within, you will know it’s no longer the Border Gavaskar Trophy, those days are long gone. And it just doesn’t sound right to call it the Singh Ponting or the Bhajji Ricky Trophy.What be...(more)

The Australians cannot be serious!I read this and then wondered how it could even be an option.And its not only Shane Watson who is willing to open; apparently Tim Nielsen is backing him to do so as well.Why?Phil Hughes has scores of 36, 4,...(more)
