LOL in every innings? Thats BS!

I agree he was trying to push things in his last innings, but you do that when you are out of form.

How much cricket do you actually watch?

Awesome innings...great 100

But for all you Hayden knockers... this is as aggressive as he is.

i agree with des, Hayden only started to try hit every ball out of the park late in his career, he probably thought the best way was to hit out of a form slump

big call i know des, but this kid could save Australian cricket

australian cricket doesnt need saving

we lost 1 test series (india doesn't count because everyone loses in india) and everyone reckons the wheels fell off

but SA needed to chase down a record to win it

so they played well, but australia are still clearly the best or second best in test cricket.

I cannot believe how people over-react when we loose two test series. We have dominated over the past ten years and obviously the turnover of players has been large over the past two years.

But since when did Australian cricket need saving?

We still have the best frirst class competition in the world, the players that we have brought in (haddin, siddle, hughes, north) are all doing well, and NEWSFLASH "We are still the number one ranked side in the world".

So what if the other teams are a bit closer to us now! what did you expect - that we would dominate world cricket forever and ever undefeated?

I would like to know why you think aussie cricket needs saving steve..
