    Gigiyo....
    Give me a good old 230+,hard chasing,Classic Aussie tri series ODI...!

    In these days..,ODI,T20 games are fucking boring...(ecxept these like brain farts as Indians had)
    These Aussie drop in pitches are exactly similar to Nagpur,Jaipur like flat,Placid wickets...
    No considerable bouncyness like we always saw in the past years where scoring was hard even though it's flat and fair....!
    Now a days ODI's only measure batsman's hitting ability(And match finishing ability as ODI's,T20 always do)..bowlers containment ability...!
    Nothing else with cricketing talent.....Boring....!
    ODI's are almost like extended T20s.........................!:angry::angry::angry::angry:
    It's a shame what has happend to Aus ODIs......!


    Ohh yes mach that was the time cricket was tested for cricketing skills not for butchers and it was a two way game also coz bowlers had more spice to give a fight back.There was a contest all the time.hence we saw thrilling games .Today we mostly see the butcher type whacking top of the leather which we called "malu kapanawa" in mid 90s who ever plays those shots was not really a cricketer even in in our backyard cricket or school cricket. Now time has passed its about how much u get not about how artistically u get them .even there was a time when a batsman got an edge he was not happy and not pleased to get those runs so does crowds too aren't really going up for those 4 runs as they go up for a great cover drive .

    But now all that seems to be vanished . When mahela retired i said there goes the last artist it really is . Rehane would be the only one remaing to even to remember there are cricketing shots. even williamson isn't in that league. Expecting and wishing to have those days back won't really happen mach . Cherish those memories we had and still we have in our Memory . .. Those days will only remain in our minds and youtube for years to come.. I think test cricket is in danger of taking out of 5 days to limit it to 4days .. When you try to handle great things belongs to past with money value You will dump all most all the great things cause the great things we had in our childhood and past Isn't really financially viable :yes: currently we are experiencing the same as a nation :).

    Hope you still remember benzon and hedges series first match against WI where they scored only 160+ we had a hard time chasing it down which we did and a throw got hit on the head of kalu . Run chase we did against australia to qualify fore the finals of the series .:D i still remember arjuna and gurusinghe bowling like i dont care :cool:
