Gotta say the Indians did not play in the spirit of the game. They were very obviously trying to slow down the game and hope the rain would become before the 25 overs. The ‘injury’ to Yuvraj was a joke especially when you saw him running later.
As soon as the 25 overs were over, the game sped up dramatically.
Go Aussies – World champs in ODI and the test arena. There is no equal.
I was wet there [] But match was very good! Australian of the Year is now Brett Lee[][]

Until the Indians actually BEAT us on our soil and are crowned No.1 cricket team in the world, it doesn’t really matter about 1 trophy.

I would have thought India would have been higher in the 1 dayers, especially after the World Cup, but obviously that’s only one part of how the ratings are calculated.
