Default Ratings for cricket down in Australia

http://foxsports.news.com.au/story/0...-27561,00.html

To my point, which I had made number of times in the past. It has become too predictable, and a bit pointless. There has to be some excitement created, with an element of unpredictability. I wonder if the players on the team themselves feel bored at times. What could possibly motivate a team to go for a victory, after so many in a row?

It's sort of like the Michael Schumacher or Lance Armstrong show. After the n'th victory, it feels all the same. At least Roger Federer was beaten, so some streak was broken.

Aussie's are unfaithful. Hang your head in shame.

Anyway dont worry England will give the Aussies i good run for their money. I predict an England victory.

England also beat Australia last summer in the occ.

Sorry Chandu, he's not got a clue about you. The little pr!ck has had a run of verbal diarrhoea lately.

I think this is a timespan in which whole of Australia has gathered behind Lleyton Hewitt, and cricket is on the backburner. Who would get more popularity points right now, Shane Warne or Lleyton Hewitt?

As far as 'bytheway' is concerned, I don't understand most of his posts.

They'd both be very popular. It'd be hard to pick one over the other. Sure Lleyton's in the eye just now, but when cricket's on, so is Shane. He's "retired" from ODI's so there isn't as much exposure, but he's still up there.
