but they are crap too compared to the 1948 invincibles.

Great team, but lack of competition

7/169 *sigh* at 40 overs

McMillan's putting up a fight though

 

[BlackDragon]

indeed. 80's and 90's = good.

and it was really competitive - that was the key.
the 1999 world cup - Best ever. Especially the semi final against south africa.

This whole situation of a dominating Australia and boring non-competitive sides playing us is really boring the crap out of me - Despite the fact that this Australian team is amazing.

 

[timlay]

i can only remember the run out.


and well. hey. loook what we have NOW!

australia 2/6!!



oh and anyone notice mcmillans hat?

its BROWN. not black. haha.hah

It's what happens when you've played for the Kiwis so long

Shit, 3/17. It always happens when we're chasing low-middish totals

 

[Kujah]

Very unusual SCG pitch. We're gonna see Mr. Cricket soon

 

[timlay]

haha. well mcmillan had that edge.... sooo....

we could always do what england do and WHINE.

pontings gone. how saddd.


this umpires STUPID (not taufel, the other one) STUPID.

 

[BlackDragon]

yeah. the other umps umpiring has been shocking. but taufel rocks
i mean, to miss that edge..wow. - We want Bucknor!

Wonder why ponting was in at 4?

Also, is there anyway to get a dvd (or tape) of that 1999 semi final anywhere? I want it so much!

 

[BlackDragon]

Wow what a mix-up/run out shamozzle. NZ really stuffed that up.
The not out call was correct though, the ball didn't even hit the stumps, it slipped out as he knocked the bails off with his wrist.

You can try asking Herschelle Gibbs - he's memory fill you in. He dropped the World Cup :rofl:

 

[Kujah]

Clarke and Hussey have steadied the ship now *sigh of relief*

 

[BlackDragon]

Yeah. I don't want to jinx us but having this partnership for around 5 more overs should have us the win. But a few quick wickets and , could be a nail biter

 

[HotShot]

NZ lol has some pretty easy oppurtinities lol.

Oh well.

Wicket! lol.


SCG 219 - is that lowest total there lol?

Need at least 300 to defend at the SCG.:rofl:

 

[Kujah]

6/188

Congrats on HUssey- 1500 runs in ODIs

 

[timlay]

omg. SO TENSEE!!!!
8/217. 2 to win off 10. :O

 

[Kujah]

haha australia wins. Hussey again saves us

 

[timlay]

6 to win the game.

hussey. legend.

haha
bloody kiwis. he didnt even touch it and they're all crowding around him.

and hussey looked sorta guilty too.

 

[Kujah]

hah. this time he didnt nip it

 

[timlay]

but mc millan did. lawl.

ponting on his decision to put clarke at no. 3:

"uh yeah. i got caught up a bit short" ...

 

[Dumsum]

Ah it's fun to sit there as the mexican wave is happening and watch the cops sigh in their powerlessness to do anything about it Lots of people got kicked out for initiating it though, haha. But this doesn't prevent it, and I don't think it ever will.

Although how's that messy bunch down under the scoreboard? Got newspaper all over the field...

 

[BlackDragon]

"uh yeah. i got caught up a bit short" ...

lol that was funny. I don't think anyone in history has ever been timed out.
