Hi guys

i was just wondering, as we all know that Austrailia is known as the best cricket team there is, at least ryt now ... even though SA put them in second place in the odi rankings, the aussies r still to be believed as the best of the best!... do u really think that the aussies r really all that great, or is it just seemed to be that way cuz of the fact that they r consistent in winning as compared to other teams?...... we all do know that they do have sum of the best players in the world, but if u really luk at them they win more cuz they have that confidence for winning, its not lyk their players r the most talented... so do u really think Austrailia is really the best ......or is it just perceived to be that way cuz of the fact that they win matches contiuously?

Australia has the best batting line up but they may not have the best bowling or fielding in the world.

The other thing best about them is their mental strength. They have won more times in extreme pressure conditions than any body else in the world. They have majority of the times delivered when it mattered most..The same cannot be said about other good teams like South Africa..

Cricket is no more a gentleman's game..Australians are doing all kind of sledging more than any body else..Generally champion teams try to be humble but not this team..They will do all kind of unacceptable things because that has been a part of their strategy to win and put other teams under pressure and it seems to be working.

But they are not invincible..They have been recently humbled by Newzealand and England.. I am sure Newzealand, England, Srilanka can beat them on their day..

well ya they hace good players and they have been winning the WC alot, but still all the other teamz can be that good if they but the effort and practice with theire full heart and soul.
aussies are the best rite now, cuz they have won, but all the other players have just the same amount of talent as far as cricket is comcerned, they just dont realize it.
After all, look at all the records sachin made and india making 413 runs, whether it was against bermuda or not, all teams can play as good as aus if they try 😉

Australia is seriously the best team...
They can play brilliantly in any conditions...They always have a back up for every player..They play marvellously under pressure...They have the best captain who leads from the front..They have the best openers, they have the best slogger, they have the best wicket keeper...everything they have is the best except for an all rounder.Their fielding is awesome..we cant actually remember wen was the last tym an Aussie dropped a catch!!!They play as a unit! 😛 👏 👏
