"Australia slump against Bangladesh
Australia's nightmare week continued as they slumped to an embarrasing five-wicket defeat against Bangladesh, in the NatWest Series at Cardiff. They could not defend 249 and there are now real concerns in the Australian camp ahead of tomorrow's match against England."
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! wtf is going on? australia lost?? no way! to bangladesh! outrage!

Damn, I really regret turning it off when they were 3 down and scoring at a snails pace.
Just wait too all the English headlines come out - at least they can turn that around against England tonight.

How can we loose to Bangledesh. Ok we lost 20-20 thats not even cricket we wont worry bout that. Loosing to Somerset or whoever didnt really count cos we still scored 350, and all there runs came from Jaisaria and that other fella. But Loosing to Bangladesh!!!!!!! How on earth. What has gone wrong with the boys.
Dont worry though - Warnie will be back for the tests, then England will fall to pieces. Thats the only thing i gained from watching the 20-20 match. If England struggles against Clarke and Symonds two of the worst spin bowlers ever to take a wicket for australia - just wait for warnie to continue his domination over the old enemy.

It's so odd to see cricket on channel 7. It freaks me out.

Bruce Mcanvaney isn't commentating is he? He is Eddie the expert.
I think the Aussie boys had some money on last nights match.
Anyone see Flintoff in the nets facing simulated balls from the Aussie bowlers from a ball machine?

I bet you Warnie's mistress (that British nurse) had a part in last nights match, or Junior Waugh had been given a good price on the Bangladeshinians.copious said:

So true, just doesn't feel right without Richie, Tony Greig, Ian Healy, Mark Taylor etc.Sweets said:
Our batting isn't the problem it's our bowling, when was the last time australia scored 340+ and still lost? some discipline is needed, if anything they should try to bowl first against england tonight

i agree, i prefer to watch the cricket on channel 9 than 7 anyday.
never been so embarrassed. FUCK. But hey, it's a new day. Things can turn around in five overs. u get hayden and gilly out there and if they get goig, suddenly we feel more confident and england begin to think "holy shit". I know a lot of pommies who think that 2days game won't even be a competition. So there mindset is not a good one. We just need to look at it as another match.

Bangladesh have now beaten both World Cup Finalists in the past three months. Good on 'em, they've got some very talented young players there, this will encourage the game over there so much.
Clarke and Hussey putting togethor a good partnership now though.

Hasn't Harmison improved since the Ashes Down Under?
However, Martyn played a stupid, stupid shot.
Ricky Ponting's dismissal is one that you have to expect will come from him now and then. He always falls over like that at the start of his innings, and Harmison gave him the perfect ball.
At 0/57 after 11, I was thinking that Australia might be getting their tour back on track. Four balls and three wickets later, I was resigned to the fact that they haven't.
Hayden followed soon after to make it 4/63. Since then, thought, Clarke and Hussey have more than doubled our score.
Right now, the score is 4/136 (30.2 ov). Hussey is 38 from 44, and Clarke is 38 from 61. As long as these two can keep the partnership going until the 42 or 43 over mark, Australia could still get 270.
