Australia v India

NTA

I believe Australia now hold every trophy except the T20WC?

Good times.

Great series hopefully new faces for Australia stay around, well done skippy

India actually got up to win one which surprised me but as @NTA might have mentioned once or twice all on the back of Bumrah.

India are a team lacking in confidence and on decline.

if they didn't drop sitters they would have had a real crack at the fourth test. C'est la vie though - not good enough

To be fair they have significant depth just fucked by politics and poor management, the NZ rugby of cricket lol

Cricket India and Australia have massive depth and resource.
NZ Cricket and Rugby don't.

OK I missed this at the time because I was out.

This is apparently Kohli making a sandpaper reference toward Steve Smith (after he was dismissed I think). There's video of it where he's miming rubbing a ball as well.

Ha ha Virat. Enjoy the flight home after getting stomped and contributing nothing except your own little batch of poison to the culture of the team.

Ya dickhead.

On the flip side: Cricket Australia are a pack of dumb fluffybunnies not having Sunny Gavaskar up there for the trophy presentation.

Well done Australia. A deserved series win.

For the neutral, these are two really unlikable sides and I am glad that we have a rest now from their pathetic antics.

Checked out the cricket sub reddits especially the India cricket one. They are breaking down and are
In tears at the fact they missed out on the wtc final. They are squarely placing the blame on the 3-0 loss to us.
It’s beautiful

@Virgil and TBH that is what probably disrupted them in addition to Rohit being absent, then in, then out.

The absolute muddle of their selection thinking was key here. Besides Jaiswal, who was the opener?

They should have picked Siraj and Prasidh to support Bumrah, and swapped in a fourth pace man or spinner to suit conditions... not that they really had a front line spin option.

How many fucking all rounders were there?

@NTA Basket Case of a side when you have a guy retiring mid-series. A strange dude, was Ashwin
