Viggen Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 (this is probably more for my commonwealth friends) This was the greatest ODI (One Day International) ever played. Australia made a mammoth 435 and South Africa was able to chase it down with just one wicket remaining. Ponting for Aussies and Gibbs for S. Africa played mind blowing innings. Over 850 runs were scored in a day with most number of sixes ever hit. Bowlers had a terrible time with Mick lewis going for 116 of just 10 overs, the most expensive spell in ODI. Watch it and enjoy! http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4...0845704&q=gibbs (over an hour footage) I remember the (imo) previous best ODI ever, also between SA and Australia that SA lost by one wicket, (i think it was in the last WC semi-final) this is just awesome how those two teams compete... cheers viggen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primus Pilus Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 They don't appear to do enough steroids for my taste. Barry Bonds head weighs more than both teams combined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobias Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I couldn't believe that - there i was celebrating at another Australian record - and the South African team beats us! But yeah, Australia is toning down now, letting a few other teams get some glory for a change; if Australia was to win all the time, the game would be just boring - we've got to be fair But seriously, South Africa just outdid us completely that day; good on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobias Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 (edited) I'm prepared to overlook his "private" life if he continues to take exorbitant amounts of wickets for Australia For god's sakes, leave the best spin bowler in the world alone, paparazzi Edited May 16, 2006 by Tobias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germanicus Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Have you seen him on the late night "Advanced Hair" commercials ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobias Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 (edited) LOL, i think Shane Warne may need to be careful; he'll end up with hair like Bert Newton Edited May 27, 2006 by Tobias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
