Hmmmmmm!! Takes small breath......

An interesting thing. During the night (and I bombed out just a bit after Wilso) they showed the "man of the series" figures. Sachin is way ahead on points. But there was not one Australian near the top of the list. Confused Oz is the only undefeated country, but apparently no individual player has done anything outstanding enough regularly to make any impact on the top of the list.

I guess if you're the only outstanding player in a team, you do stand out above the riff-raff. If you're an outstanding player in an outstanding team - well, you're nowhere Twisted Evil (copying Gautam with tongue in cheek!)

One of the great things abt the Aussies is the way they play as a team. It is just mind blowing - there are no individual glories there - a perfect reciepe for a win everytime !!

But Indians have been playing as a team now, specially after their humiliation by the Aussies in the league matches.

God must be happy with us to give Sachin to the Indian team. Imagine what would have happened if he was an Aussie !!

I wonder if he'd make the team - if he was an Aussie?? Twisted Evil (push Darren Lehman down the order?)

That was the amazing thing when the Poms toured over December/ January. Until one batsman (forgotten name) started to fire, none of them would have a guaranteed place in the Australian second team. Confused

Holy mackerel! 2 for 359! Shocked

Sachin will really have to shake his little tail!

Highest ever total for Australia in a 1-day international.

Highest total in a World Cup final.

At the end of the day

- The most deserving team won the WC
- There was only one team in the world which could have chased 359, and they were defending it
- Hey, we beat the Pakistani's - thats like winning the world cup for us
- And if India could not win, then the only country which I was rooting for were the aussies (hey, I am an honorary aussie, remember guyz ??)

Congrats and well done....
