Australia don’t lose for whole cricket season against rubbish opposition

That should be the beginning and end of the story.

Yes it is a impressive statistical achievement, but so would it be if a kid said he had masturbated every day from the age of 11 to 16.

In the end you are pretty much only beating yourself.

The West Indies came to Australia without a bowling attack, carried some strike breakers, blooded some kids and had a captain who turned up in time for the toss.

They played well at times, but ultimately look like a team that needed the other team to explode for victory, Australia flamed at times, but never combusted.

Then Pakistan came without their captain after struggling in New Zealand. They abandoned the first game, showed their keeper to be the worst keeper in a generation of the worst keepers while their stand in captain refused to captain and showed nothing more than faux teenagers.

Pakistan’s one day side was playing under a captain who was sacked before the series started, the team lived up to that decision, then they made a positive move and hired a new captain who had one of the most entertaining fuck ups in cricket history when he tried to bite the ball.

Their T20 side showed their champion status by bowling Australia out for 127, they still lost.

Then the Windies came back, not all of them though, some were still hanging around milking cash from state sides.

The Windies one day side seemed to made up of blokes who had won contests to play and a few guys who had talent but rarely used it. In their first two games they made 310 as a combined total. Surprisingly that struggled to stop the momentum of the best one day side in the world.

For some reason logic has never touched on the Windies were given two T20 games which they embarrassed themselves fully in.

The one plus about the Windies trip back was that at least distant family members were assured that Wavell Hinds was alive.

That was it, there was some rain, a defensive draw in Adelaide and Australia even beat themselves once.

It was better than losing the Ashes, Border-Gavaskar and the Mike Haysman cup, but not that much better.

They should be proud for not losing, but I wouldn’t give them anything more than a biscuit if they were my kids.
