Losing 2 matches do not indicate that australia has become poor team. it is still most dangerous team but has somewhat softened

It will not be good for Australia if they both can't play - and it will be particularly sad for Vidmar as he has been waiting for years and years for the Socceroos to make the World Cup final.\nThey can still make it to the second round, and maybe the quarter finals without them though! We've got Guus on our side!

West Indies played very well and they desrve it. If Indian Team is going to play like this they are not going to be hot favorites for World Cup.

It is hard to tell. Nobody is playing well. Mediocre players, mediocre teams.

ALL THE BATSMEN ARE OUT FORM. WHENEVER THERE IS CAPTAIN APPOINTED WITH THE CONTROVERSY THE TEAM HAS  NOT PERFORMED WELL.

Sorry to say but the Aussies are not easily beaten at home.  Their record speaks for itself.  Firstly, England has too little key players on tour.  Freddie, Steven and Kevin is good, but not that good.  Aus has 11 very good players plus back-up to spare.\n\nEngland is also not on a very high recently and might just regret the ashes.  I predict 4-0 to Australia.

Dude, it's difficult to summarize in this segment. Here's a very brief take:\nAustralia scored 434 in a one-day match against South Africa and.... they lost. Amazing game. You can check scorecard by clicking the link http://uk.cricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/2005-06/AUS_IN_RSA/SCORECARDS/AUS_RSA_ODI5_12MAR2006.html\n\nI am sure there are some TV channels in USA that show cricket matches. The ODIs are pay-per-views, but you can watch the highlights.

massive advantage. there is a reason australia havent lost a series since 1992 in australia. \n\n1. its hot. really hot, and the english are used to cool overcast conditions. \n2. these conditions in england are helpful for swing bowling, but the ball swings less in australia so Hoggard and Anderson are useless. \n3. IN england they use a Duke ball, in aust. they use a Kookaburra ball. Again the duke ball swings, the kooka doesnt. aust lost last year because they couldnt handle the swing that all of englands bowlers got. but the ball doesnt swing in aust so its a lot easier for aust to score big runs. \n4. australias pitches are the bounciest in the world, and england struggle to adjust to the extra bounce generated by the pace bowlers. aust are used to these pitches.\n\nvenues: Gabba is always first test, aust havent lost there since 1988, its warnes best ground in aust altough its typically a pace bowlers ground. warne gets huge bounce at gabba. as its the first test and the hottest city that tests are played in, touring sides are usually smashed at the gabba, unable to handle the heat or the bounce and this sets the tone for the rest of the series.  \n\nWACA is good for pace bowling getting huge bounce as well. SCG is good for spin bowling. aust usually play two spiinners at the scg at this is the last test of the tour usually. only the subcontinent sides (india etc) are good at playing spinners. the english are not.

There is a lot of pressure on the big teams to do well. Germany have been OK, England were happy to secure victory, Holland and Argentina are superb, Italy and France were disappointing, the USA aren't a 'good team' and Brazil were tested against Croatia but found natural form against the Socceroos. They have a way about them that means even when they are not playing well, or they have orgainsed opponents, they will always produce something special.\n\nSpain did well.

It is a bad thing done to the sport cricket.  In Asia only money is playing in cricket.  Of course people are very mad after cricket.  But Asians, we have to accept humbly, have not done anything to the developmenty of cricket.  Whereas the Aus have done a lot for the game cricket.  Had the world cup gone to Aus., definitely the game of cricket would have improved, rather they must have introduced some thing new to the game of criocket.  With lot of money with the boards of Asian countries they should have spend this money for the development of cricket in third world countries/Oceana/USA/Europe, but the fact is the other way.  So the development or good thing to be done to the game of cricket has been postponed by another 4/5 years.  Right?  Accepted?\n\nIf the final is played at Calcutta/Mumbai/Newdelhi/Chennai/Bangalore I will be happier.

Definetly Aussies.. Its not a matter that the lost on 434 score.. They made the record and they lost its unlucky.. Reason are, They have the strong characters in the team who take the game away single handed.. like Ponting, Gilchrist, Symonds, Clarke, MR.Cricket (Hussey), Lee and Missing Mcgrath.. and they have very devoted players to their nation.. and mantally tough.. and playing according to opposite side weaknesses.. They play with defined plan.. and they are a Unit.. and inspiration for others..

The coach doesn't exactly play does he? You can have the best coach but if you're team's crap, they are crap.\n\nAlthough I won't rate Australia as crap, they are just not good enough now, to win the trophy.\n\nBe satisfied with every victory, or how far they progress.

I don't believe Queensland show any arrogance or unsportsmanship. It wasn't as if they batted for the whole 5 days which they could've nearly done. 900 is an incredible score and if Victoria couldn't bowl them out for less than 900 then basically they didn't deserve to win. Why give a lesser side a chance to win if they don't deseve to win????????? Congrats Queensland

It is true that aussies are having great performance in last 4-5 years. They work hard on and off the field. They go under rigorous training and they also have a heart of lion. In any given day, any team who can perform well can defeat them; even boogie team like bangladesh defeated them some time ago in a ODI and also gave them a scare in test. \nSo to overrun their feat one team need to have some consistent players. Currently there is any team in the world who can boast about having some players who can be consistant. But as the english and the proteas have shown there could be one or more teams who can stop the australian jauggernaut.

It's an obvious but simple answer. The players aren't good enough. They don't compete to a very high standard in their domestic league and are out of their depth when it comes to playing in the World Cup.
