Worst collapse?

[ClintonGrybus]

Is that the worst collapse by an Aussie side for a long time?

Shocking! - especially in a final!

 

[HBF]

Would have to be close.
Pretty ordinary effort by the Aussies.
Still, at least the game will be interesting tonight.

Well thats it hey, when Hayden and Punta were going along a score of 320+ was looking possible.

I just hope we havent shot ourselves in the foot coz we dont play well in Sydney.

Yeh it wasn't a very good effort, but we still got 252 with a collapse like that so lets we can bowl well and still win.

Hussey looks to be a bit out of form for the first time in his career. Hodge's dismissal was criminal. Clarke did about as well as excepted. Hogg is a hack with the bat. Watson is not a lower order batsman and he showed why. Gilchrist is tired.

Check out the Australian collapse in the second innings of this test in 78/79 against Pakistan.

Off the top of my head, it is the worst I can remember.

If England keep batting the way they are, this collapse is really going to cost us.

We need Whitey in there for some lower order hitting.

Drop Watson or Hogg!

Can punter hack it under the pump in the field, that's the big question?

Safraz must have bowled alright.

 

[ShearMagic9]

Going to be interesting in Sydney because we have a positive win-loss record there.

Won 9, Lost 7.

Yeah, I still remember it.

At 3-305, chasing 382, you would think you were in with a chance.

Then we lost 7-5, with all seven wickets going to Sarfraz.

After this test, the second (and last) test was in Perth, which is when Hilditch was given out Handled The Ball - Sarfraz being the one who appealed. He did it in revenge for Hurst "mankading" Sikander Bakht. (That was Jeff Moss's one and only test for Australia out of interest).

So it was certainly an eventful series.

yeah when i saw the title of the thread, my mind immediately thought back to sarfraz. think in that spell he took 7 for 1!!!

Clinton,

You and your media buddies tend to bag the aussie team regardless of what they are doing. So If I were you I would stop bagging them out before you get all of them coming out and having a go at you for making the comments.

i wouldn't mind seeing that innings, just to see if it was the pitch or the batsmen or bowlers that caused it.
