Ponting showed why he is reckoned as No 1 in ODIs and Tests, with a superb 107 not out against NZ. Aussies won by 7 wickets. Gilchrist hits 2 sixes in his 51 and Ponting with Clarke and Symonds sealed the fate of the match. Aussie bowling was ferocious, with Lee & Tait !
The Aussie commentators were talking about the upcoming series against India. They said India is a very experienced side, with one of the best batting line ups in the world. Jaffer is in tremendous form. The Indian left arm seamers performed well in England and they are expecting a great series, which starts from Dec 20.
In our last post, we talked about the Awesome Fivesome. It is actually the Splendid Sixsome, Yuvraj included. On paper, it looks like the best batting line up in the world, considering that Sachin alone has scored more than 27000 runs in ODIs and Tests. Ganguly has scored more than 11000 runs and taken more than 100 wickets in ODIs. Sehwag had scored a triple century and Laxman 's highest is 281. Yuvraj 169. So statistically, this Splendid Sixsome seems to be the best batting line up. Aussies have better pace attack and is the better allround side !
