Australia will win the whole thing. There only slip could be against New Zealand. They'd easily beat South Africa or the Windies.

Don't agree with that Zooter,

South Africa are playing really, really well. The Aussie batsman are playing well, but I do not think the bowling is quite there yet.

SA have really come good in this series, and i very pleased with that. The Windies too are starting to perform as they should.

Cricket is a game played by two teams, where in a team will consist 11 players each. Teams will bring their own crickets, and make them run with chirping noice. An advanced stage of this game is when teams turn to fighting from running. Each cricket will pick their opponent.In some cases press media decides which cricket is against which. Each cricket will have its own name and the last cricket n its team which beats the shizzle out of all the other crickets, wins the game. Its a fantastic game to watch,

All the countries where there are still bushmen living participate in the game like Oz, Newzealand, West Indies. Though indian subcontinent countries are also trying to train their crickets they are not as successful as the countries where the game originated and especially because the countries like OZ still have some natural original talent in training Crickets.

Yorky, don't be one of those losers that support the teams that thrashed theirs. I hear the cheating pakis are supporting Australia because we whooped India.

2/26 - Ponting and Marto settling in.

Ian,

Never have, never will support the Aussies in anything! (no malice, just don't and won't) :lol: :lol:

Looks the batsmen are starting to settle in now, however, it has been helped by some poor bowling by the Kiwi's in the 5th to 10th overs.

Nobody asked you to support Australia, but to support any team playing against them???

Fitting it should be the kiwis, they're the only other wankers who do that.

Ian,

what you say has some truth, but read between the lines. I respect and admire the Aussies and consider them to be at the top of nearly all the sports they partake in, as such i support the underdog. Afterall, thats why I support England! :oops: :oops:

Up to Hussey and Symonds now. (Hope they don't send Clarke in)

Wish I was watching this on the telly and from the comfort of my couch, not on the computer screen.

Its hanging in the balance, thats for sure. we have a prediction from the office that the Aussies will be 235-8 after 50 overs.

4/183 at the moment with 2 big hitters at the crease. 11 overs to go.

235 might be easy from here unless the Kiwis can get some wickets, and their star bowlers are spent.

It looks like a hard wicket to score off too. 230+ would be very competitive.
