TheParraboy, a million thanks for bumping the thread that I completely forgot making!

But in all seriousness - if any of you had been in England last winter focusing on cricket instead of footy, you'd have made the same call. The writing was well and truly on the wall.

Dravid was poor too, but well called.

Not one Indian averaged over 40, with the bat, with the ball, plenty Sharma in the 90s.

We had 2 blokes over 100, with our bowlers @17.

Owned big time.

Yep I'm calling it now.

OK, It could be 3-0, 2-0, 1-0 or, worst case scenario, 0-0. But India have as much chance of winning here this summer as I do of playing in the series.

Having watched the whole test series in England (which included attending the Lords and Trent Bridge tests) I have come to the conclusion we have nothing to fear from the Indians.

Well, except Dravid. Who still rocks.

But my assesments:


  • Laxman - too old, past it.
  • Zaheer - Injury prone.
  • Harbajan - Straight break merchant these days, no threat.
  • Tendulkar - not an ace in the field. Despite his still formidable batting.
  • Dhoni - Neither a particular inspiring skipper or batsman.
  • The remaining quicks - Military medium pacers. Except Sreesanth, who's quick but useless.
I really don't think we'll struggle against these guys. They're so full of their own bullshit that I reckon we'll blitzkreig them to be honest.

Good assessment, I'm just not sure if I share your confidence... I'd like a second opinion...

India will come back with a vengeance

They will be pumped to win their first test series in Australia. Possibly last swang songs here for a few of their players eg dravid, sachin, harbie etc . Our bowling attack is ripe for their batsman

3-1 to India, cant go wrong

Cheers

...yep, now it's certain.

You should be thanking him for predicting 3-1 India :lol:
