The saffers, sheep rooters, Poms and street shitters love ganging up on Australia because we’re so much better than they are. Tall poppy syndrome at its finest.
I'm sorry, but that's too funny.
Test rankings have India and South Africa ahead of you. ODI rankings have all four of the teams that you just mentioned ahead of you. I can appreciate that you can point to recent results as evidence that these rankings are not necessarily reflective of current reality- but they are reflective of you not currently being "so much better than they are"
Playing word association, if I said "sledging", most would say "Australia". That's not a sledge, because I don't really think there is anything wrong with sledging or the way that Australia approaches the game.
I don't think Australia has a sledging problem. Australia has a "David Warner" problem. Occasionally, other players step over the line, perhaps. We all have players who have those moments. But Warner is the maniac who can't handle the responsibility that comes with the 'good, hard' brand of cricket Australia wants to play. And he's your vice-captain, bizarrely.
