Australian Victory

Congratulations !!! Australia has prooved they are the lions , they are the kings ... hattrick in world cup defeating only the sub continect countries - Pakistan, India, and then Sri Lanka in the finals.
They are true professionals in the game and they have forgotten what defeat/loosing is.
Undefeated champians ... we salute you.

( May India learn something from you guys .Actually they have forgotten what winning is. Whatever Saurav ganguly did {made Team India} and started tasting success- [at least they reached finals last year] Creg Chappel came and poisoned the team -now his job(destroy team india) is over so he is moving out now and Dravid merely as foolish puppet does what Creg says- just to be a captain without shouldering the true responsiblity.Now our backbone is broken - it will take years to make another team now. Whatever, its upto the makers of the money and game , to do some good to the country or still suck public money and give no show.)

Australia is the Best !!! Well Done Ricky and his Boys .... Congratulations on bagging the Cup and taking home the World.

Yeah, for all those who say Lara/Sachin/blah blah.. are the best in the world, please stop doing it. Coz.. a player is best when he plays in times of need. Look at Gilchrist. He did not have a good tournament so far.Yet in the Final Crunch Game, he showed it. Still there are a lot of people who come in support of so-called best batsmen(??) and who say that these best batsmen alone cannot alter the fate of the team.
But have a look at the final match.Every Australian strugggled against Lankans, except ofcourse Gilli. He is the only one who made the difference. His innings is the only one that made the difference. Aussie bowling also not that great yesterday. In how many matches did these great batsmen (Sachin/Lara Etc) made it for their bowlers?
