Fantastic game, great atmosphere and the first time I have seen Australia win a ODI live.
Anyway, they banned the mexican wave. :rolleyes:
But that didn't stop us! And ditto with the beach balls. Hugest cheer of the night was for Andy Bichel bowling Lance Kluesner.
Elegant classy innings by Punter and Marto, especially by Marto. He was always lurking about 5 runs behind Punter, then Punter got out, and before we knew it, we were on our feet cheering his century. The bowlers were superb (except Warne, who seemed to struggle)
Any of the front-runner fans back on the bandwagon yet?

I honestly don't know how they are going to police it at any of the grounds.

The crowd started the Mexican Wave, then it began to die out, then the scoreboard flashed a message saying "Don't do the mexican wave" So what did everyone do.....:D :D
I reckon the cheer that Andy Bichel got when he got Klusner was the loudest thing I've heard at the Gabba!

I was on the wagon even when they lost those couple of games.
No one lost confidence in them I dont think, they had bad run, but are a brilliant team and were always going to fight back.
Cheers

A big 'Bullsh*t' chant followed by the Mexican Wave again! Stuff em'! :D
Yep, that roar for Bichel's wicket was HUGE.

Yeah,
i have just been reading some really, really negative comments about the side. Its like come on, we won 16 tests in a row, we are the World Champions in Tests and One-dayers etc. We are spoilt with success, and suddenly we lose a few games and its like the world has turned upside down. :rolleyes:
Posts like when discussing what the best 11 would be, someone said "doesn't matter who will select, we will still get flogged anyway." :rolleyes:
