Australia is a great team..\nIf not ponting there will be somebody else to rise up to the\nsituation\nAustralia is not a one man army depending on Ponting...\n\n\n... I am Indian

Nope not this time ...their moral is bit  down after their performance in ICC trophy, while Australia will face them after winning the trophy...n Aussies is all the way better  than England..will be  tough for England to retain.

"Records are made to be Broken".\nsachin has no doubt a great player but at present due to consistent injuries he is not playing as he is known for.\nBut as far Ponting is concern he is playing consistentaly great innings evry time when ever team require his participation. So if he countinue to play like as he is playing now a days, sure he will set new records.

IT IS BELIEVED AUSTRALIA.\nBUT THEY TOO ONCE BEATEN BY LOW VALUED BANGLADESH.\nON COMING WC'07 WILL ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.

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.

No.  They played 90 minutes and Australia had a man advantage for 40 of them.  They can only blame themselves for not having scored before then.

In all probability South Africa would win. South Africa would put West Indies to rest with a hefty score of 258. Australia still remembers the defeat at the hands of SA even after scoring 434. I find SA is the best well-knit team and all its players are contributing their bit. Today Gibbs fired too. And in the final Graham Smith is most likely to perform.\n\nHaving said that, Australia is a hard nut and McGrath has bowled exceedingly well. It would be a nice final to watch.

Your obviously a Pakistan fan but the truth is that when Australia are on song and playing as a unit, no team in world cricket can hold a candle to them (their record speaks for itself). I'm, of course, talking about proper cricket (ie test) not the hit and giggle form (good for a laugh and filling coffers). No team has been so full of record crushers in the history of cricket (even the "Invincibles" and the "Windies" of the eighties). England caught Oz on a "sticky wicket" (ie injuries - poor form - less than ideal preparation). Note: Pakistan will never be a top performer in test cricket until they learn to play as a unit, as in the Javed days....and until they start producing world class domestic wickets.

I DON'T THINK SO BECAUSE U KNOW ONLY FIELDING IS NOT THE REASON INDIA IS LOOSING.INDIA IS TEAM AND TEAM WORK IS NEEDED TO WIN

CERTAINLY INDIA WILL DO BETTER THAN ODI SERIES.\n\nI HOPE INDIA WILL WIN ATLEAST ONE TEST.\n\nANYHOW, WINDIES WILL DOMINATE THE TEST SERIES TOO.

whats happened to everyone ??he's talking about cricket world cup 2007,in west indies.have u all got so addicted that u guys no more remember which year this is??its still 2006!!!!\nengland's  chances pretty good!!look at their line-up they've got all-rounders like flintoff,collingwood..geraint jones can be a handy bat..some fine batsmen...and....world class bowlers...haven't got a got a genuine spinner though...when vaughn returns from injury u have one very good side !!!forget their recent loss in India..conditions were so tough & injuries to key players can seriously affect your combination...their chances in WC '07 are much more solid than that of aussies..but there are some prety good teams around aswell!!!

Yes, Good players keep on coming in Australian side - we have Nathan Bracken, Michael Hussey , Michael Clarke , Mitchell Johnson . There are some good  young  allrounders  too . Australian team also has a good rotational policy . So they will still be quite a good team even after Mcgrath and Warne retire .

anything can happen in cricket.\n\nbangladesh beat australia in a 1 day match in aussie ground about 6-8 months ago, although they lost in the series. so far they hav beat zimbabye, india, pakistan, sri-lanka(about 3-4 months ago), kenya in ODIs. and they played really well against south africa test matches about a couple of months ago. and they were hard to defeat for australia in the 1st test match in the current series. \n\nppl who doesn't knw anything about cricket r just talkin crap only knowing tht aus is the world champ. at the moment, bangladesh's not in a good position to win the series but they shaked the base of aus team at the 1st test match for sure. the aus cricket board got scared at 1st & was thinking to replace shane warne & 1 other cricketer then.

Ur right, west indies might end up winning. I think India came into this tour under estimating Windies. N as much as it was Zimbabwe, a winning habit is good n one which west indies have benefited from. India should watch out. plus Lara is doing a better job 3rd time asking.

Australia currently lead by 626 runs, if they bat on for a further hour England could be set 700+ to win! As the Test record for a fourth innings is 418-7 (WI v Australia, 2002-03) and the first class record 513-9 (Central Province v Southern Province in Sri Lanka, 2003-04), I think we can safely say that it's impossible for England to win. \nAn equivalent in other sports? Mohammed Ali in his prime losing to Julian Clary? In other words I don't believe you could seriously find an equivalent in another sport.
