When was the last time the Aussies collapsed like this?

justforkix · « **Reply #49 on:** February 29, 2008, 09:14:40 AM »

107-1 to 115-5

Doing a West Indies seems to be flavor of this month - 1st NZ, then, SL, then India, and now even Australia

Wow, major twist in the tale....it would be great to have the Aussies in the final with a loss in the previous match.

Why is that better? and meanwhile Hussey gets off the zero.

This is serial killing of the highest order..

Gilchrist ROCKS!!!

He sure does rock. I know Aussies will lose this game.

Outside of Richards the most unique player I have seen who changed the dynamics of the game just by the way he plays the game. If we add keeping to the equation and all the great wins Aussies had as a team he sure is the best ODI player ever after Viv in my books.

A setback like this is always at the back of your mind when are getting into an important match (read Final). They did rest a few players but this was supposed to be cakewalk. As it turns out...its not going to be unless the last pair springs a miracle..

Australia require another 19 runs with 1 wicket and 18 balls remaining
Great life for a dead game!

They rested only Hayden, otherwise this is their 1st choice team. Hayden, according to Ponting was not fully prepared to play and missed practice for the last couple of days.

Aussies' best chances to beat India are on a real flat track since our bowlers have no clue how to bowl on a flat track and India's best chance to beat Aussies are on a bowler friendly track.

I remember Ponting saying somewhere that he wanted to carry the momentum, going forward to the finals...
