Mr. Big Mouth

Before you read the blog...plz glance through this....
http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/indvaus/content/current/story/312735.html

I don't understand whats wrong with the Australians. I believe the folks below the equator think reverse...or maybe bcoz Australia is so far down.. that wo log sirf GIRI HUI BATEIN KARTE HAI....
Ponting has had the notorious reputation of shooting his mouth off at press conferences... but dude, u gotta grow up.... in the above article, he mentions the Aussies wud be better off playing against India wid SACHIN-SOURAV-RAHUL trio than without them.... big joke...thats a clear cheapshot...
I dont understand what he wants to prove wid a statement like this... Whether he thinks he can pressurize the Indian Selectors into not playing these 3 greats, or whether he plans to affect their confidence, either way, he must understand, that perhaps after scoring more than 35,000 runs between them, such people r IMMUNE to cheapshots like these....

No doubt the new and youthful team did a gr8 job in T20 WC...but 50 over games r a different ball game...(actually its a bat-ball game), and so the experience-youth-confidence combination is gonna be hard to beat..
DRAVID, free from the onus of leading the side, wud be eager to score heavily....

DADA, wid his classy drives and powerful lofts, wud be as solid as ever at the top...

and ofcourse,
SACHIN.... what to say of him.... Is in gr8 form, and i m sure Ponting wud eat his words and choke on them while he is chasing the balls to the boundry.....
On the other hand, Ponting himself is not 100% fit...and Hussey and Watson r out of the series...so when Ponting thought of winning the series, an Andaz Apna Apna dialog popped up into my mind...

"Abe saale, pehle koshish ke kaabil to ban...."

However, looking at the recent India matches..(not T20), I feel you dont need good bowlers of fielders to get these 3 legends out... All you need is ppl like this....

So knowing the fact that ICC has plenty of these species.... I am sure that this series is gonna be a gr8 one...... Do enjoy the cricket....
