POPSAustralia back to Number 1 Australia has been and will remain number 1 cricket team in the world for few more years atleast. For a short duration, SA took first spot but that was nothing to do with their own performance but due to Australia's defeat in recent tri-series against England. Australia is way ahead of other teams in the world. SA's charge to number 1 spot was because of some number games that ICC has. The same thing applies to Ricky ponting as a batsman. How can Kevin Peterson beat Ponting to become number 1. Ricky is the greatest match winner I have seen for many years now. He is the best.

POPSBad news continue to flow from West Indies - Inzi retires Its been a day of bad news from the world cup. Earlier Bob Woolmers death had shocked the world and then came the news that Inzi is saying good bye to One day cricket.Ironically, It was the same platform (1992 world cup in Australia) where he emerged as a star for pakistani cricket, steering them to a WC win. He made his debut there. What a sad end to such an illustrious career.

POPSAussies crushed Scotland As expected Australia managed an easy win over Scotland. Ponting scored his 4th WC century and was the backbone of the innings. Hussey's form is a little bit of concern but I am sure he will defy all the odds. McGrath as always so effective and dangerous. I am going to track his wicket tally.

POPSPonting furious on Gavaskar's remarks Ponting reminded India of its performance in recent past and more than that Gavaskar's game and his one off incident of "mis-behavior" on the field. Not only this but much more. Well Ricky is one of my favorite players but here I would disagree with him and probably take a strong exception of what he said for Team India and Gavaskar. Come on Ricky, don't let your frustration come out like this.

POPSMcGrath to start with the new ball. I love to see McGrath take on the new ball. There is no other way to terrify opposition. I am not sure about Aussie tactics by him bowling as first change. He is the best when he bowls at opposition openers.

POPSThanks guys! Oh Boy! I am sad today. I cannot be happy, with both these wonderful folks not to be seen on the cricket ground (McGrath for Tests). I have seen full days of test match cricket with them bowling over after over. Cannot describe the void inside me. I have been in US for 3-4 years now and haven't got much chance to watch cricket. This makes me even more sad because I know I have missed some of the greatest performances these guys delivered. I am waiting for their Auto biographies. Those will be my greatest belongings. I already have "Out of my comfort zone" - by Steve Waugh. I want to thank you guys. You both are my heros.

POPSShane past 1000 It all began here, years ago, against India (I think). Sydney, being the best for spinners, had high hopes of a warne magic that day. But he ended up getting only 1 wicket in the entire test match. Who would have thought that Warne will become a legend at they very same ground. If warne remains wicket less in the second innings, it will be some sort of history or a record of some sort. For warne, I don't think it matters.

POPSShane Warne - The legend Its not just a void in the game that is going to happen but void will be in the hearts of cricket fans, all around the world.

POPSAustralia is loosing too many stars Can't beleive that australia is loosing so many stars at the same time. I think Australians are setting standards in the game that are hard to achieve. Both on and off the field. The whole retirement season is an example of an off field standard. These players and coaches are happy to leave the game when they are in prime form. They don't want to be pushed aside by bunch of selectors of people themselves. Its their self respect which they want to save at the end and not just being the record holders (some of them are unthinkable to break). I seriously doubt if players of any other team (exception is Brian Lara) can follow the same.

POPSLanger Retires Nice Guy. Always fought for the glory in a star studded Aussie lineup. Didn't have a great technique but had true determination to score runs. A good opener.
