I remember the days when we had an epic squad.
Gillie , hussey , pointing , hayden , warne ,symonds , lee etc
But now all our good players have retired and our squad is really young . It''ll take a couple of years but one day australia will be on top again

However, all those people were talented from day 1.
Talent is questionable in our present squad.

Warne got 1/228 for the first series he played in and was even dropped for the last Test in Perth ;)

Give them time.

He'll leave a brilliant legacy, easily one of the greatest cricketers of modern times. I only really started following cricket in the past three or so years, but whenever I saw Tendulkar come out to bat, it could only be described as exciting.

Edit: autocorrect; tendu lake --> Tendulkar

Ahh...How I miss watching all those classic players. With the current team, I don't find it enjoyable to watch anymore sadly. I mean, I wish we would go back to that all out powerhouse Aussie team that took those cheeky runs, sledges a fair bit, and played winning cricket. Really do hope to relive those childhood cricket memories sometime soon..

On ya Aussie!! :)

Who else is up right now to watch the T20? :P

I feel extremely guilty for napping for 2 hours and waking up now to watch the cricket during this time period :/

Might I add, Dhoni. Seemed like India would collapse by the time 190 or 200 would come up. But nah, the guy pushed on. Hats off to him as well.

Huge display of batting, poor Sharma couldn't believe what was happening. Hope the Aussies can hold on to win the series!
