This season has really been a let down so far. 3 out of 6 have been rain affected. The other 3 games, haven't made it full lenght either.

This was a really important season for australian cricket. The hottest game 20/20 is smashing crowl records, and also has changed the game as we know it. There is doubt looming that the tri nations event each summer may be canned to a 4 year thing, like the world cup, or a shorted version of it.

The gods had not been with the cricket fans this year, and i feel we maybe watching the last of the 50/50 games in tri format, with 9 games each and 2-3 finals.


Geezs... bring cricket to Adelaide... It will not rain, if it does.. we need it..lol

I can't help but equate it to League vs Union, with League being (and I mean this in the nicest possible way) a cut down version for the simpletons that have short attention spans :P


Have to agree that so far this season has been a let down, as if so much rain! Dunno what the farmers are complaining about :) Was great to see Gilly get his ton (and a win) at the WACA.

we suck today 6/115 in 31.3 overs how bad. but we will bounce back, our bolwers are on fire. if we get 240 +, we should still win.

own edit.

I've been listening to ABC radio for the last two matches, and both times the commentators said Aus hadn't made enough runs. When will they learn..

Must admit, without Lee today, I thought he'd struggle to bowl them out, but to do it for a bonus point is pretty spesh!
