Paxter Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Yeah, Sehwag did not look comfortable in that innings. Probably shouldn't have played if he was still struggling with injury :dunno:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evanesco75 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Wow. Incredible shit, that. Farewell, Aussies. You were gods for a long time. Lee, you will be missed (as will Ponting). So, it's to be Pakistan vs. India. In India. Fucking brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vestrit Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I wish I had gone down this morning and put money on Ponting getting a ton todayIt was so inevitableOK, what odds a Ponting ton and an Australia loss?that said, 260 never felt anywhere near enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Winged Shadow Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 that said, 260 never felt anywhere near enoughNot against India's powerhouse batting. That's why the Semis are gonna be awesome. Bowling powerhouse vs Batting powerhouse. Oh baby! :spank: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxter Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I actually thought 260 was OK Vestrit - and who knows it may well have been enough if India hadn't included Raina in the team :dunno:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DemonKing Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Worst possible result for Australia - not only are they out of the World Cup but Ponting will use his 100 to try to justify hanging around for another couple of years.I guess in the end we achieved about as much as could be hoped for for a team that is now clearly outside the top 4 in the world. At least now I can look on impartially at the remaining games (provided of course, England don't win - that would be unbearable). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stubby Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 So is there any news yet on the extent of the damage to our lot's dressing rooms? Or did Captain Grumpy take a couple of Mogadon after the loss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeor Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 DK is right...Ponting hanging around will be a bad thing. Great as his innings was, it was the perfect way to go out now.I think if Australia won the whole thing Ponting might have retired completely. Right now the best to hope for is that he'll ditch the ODI game (he's not going to make another World Cup) and putter along in Tests for a little bit more. I'm not convinced he'll stay in Tests much longer either but the ODI hundred will get some critics off his back about earning his place in the team - in any form of the game a century will at least show that you still have some of the skills required for success in the game.I also thought 260 wasn't enough. Bar Ponting and David Hussey at the end, there was a feeling that the innings was just plodding along without any impetus and we should have scored more. I know India were under pressure chasing a total with their powerhouse lineup but still, the slow wicket wasn't good for us - blunted our fast bowlers and we didn't have the spinners to exploit it.I hope India/Pakistan lives up to the billing!

MultiClassGeek Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Not against India's powerhouse batting. That's why the Semis are gonna be awesome. Bowling powerhouse vs Batting powerhouse. Oh baby! :spank:Speficially, battle of the allrounders: Afridi's bowling vs Yuvraj's batting.Also: McCullum, WTF WAS THAT? MORON!! I know I picked SA to win,but I thought you'd do *something*...

Paxter Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Never thought I would live to see the day of South Africa opening with a spin bowler and playing three spinners in the same line-up :stunned:.NZ look to be struggling here, but I'm not going to write them off just yet as they have often proved to be a stumbling block for the Saffies in World Cups.

Xray the Enforcer Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I checked the scoreboard this AM and in my bleary-eyed state, I thought it was 92 for 6. :stunned: But no, 96/2. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
