That wasn't cricket; my kids play on bigger grounds than the ones you guys have over there :roll:
Hardly fair for that group of suckers called "bowlers".
Well done to the kiwis though; hope that puts a rocket up the Aussies before the World Cup.

Oh this is a very underarmed errr underhanded thread LOL

Yeah watched it, bugger ..... talk about 'one day a peacock and then next day a feather duster'.

Well done Kiwi's - were unlucky in Australia. You played better than England all series except for one game and looks what goes and happens.
Never argue with an idiot, it brings you down to their level and they beat you with experience.

Pathetic effort from Aus in the first game, but hat goes off to NZ for good playing in the second 2 games. Mere mortals like me with no pay tv had to listen to it one the radio.
I hope this really spurs us into doing something different (ie winning) in the world cup.

Saw the first two at home (NZ), listened to the 3rd on ABC radio in Aussie because it wasn't on free to air.

This actually raises a very good point, the ABC radio commentators are very good so how come your TV ones are so ###*** bad? Slats was good when commentated at home a few years ago, now he is just as bad as the rest, whats going on

Love the result but fear it will be a while before it happens again

I have to disagree with you there, Greig and Lawry are tossers (actually I kind of feel sorry for Lawry, sad old prick) but the rest are alright I reckon. I think it's stupid having 3 in the box though, when Benaud is in the house he can't get a word in :(

During the tri series, I actually thought the commentators were having a gag.

Way I read it was, they essentially want to slam the Aussie cricket team. I couldn't believe how one sided they were. I was expecting a bit but calls like
"He is the perfect cricketer", about Ponting, that's obscene. He;s bloody good, but nowhere near perfect. They just had horrendous double standards.


LOVED seeing us waste them though.
