if those 7 world class batsman together can't score over 300 or near 300, then it clearly implies that no team can score that much.
India again scored 300 against England in first ODI without 3 World Class batsman.

How terrible and lucky was Dhoni again last night? 87* off 70 odd, 4th half century in a row. I also hope he's dropped and sacked and implicated for match fixing and arrested before reaching Aus.

Maybe you should be arrested for using internet with inability to spot sarcasm.

I guess some others here are talking about Dhoni in tests. He is a fantastic ODI batsman and even his captaincy in ODI cricket cant be taken away from him. But let's face it - he is a very average to mediocre test batsman. For Australia, he should remain as captain of the test team, but if he doesnt improve his test form in Australia, it should be time to look for other captaincy/keeping options in test cricket.

Yeah I understand that people are referring to tests, but it's not like he loses his ability to bat. Comparing Dhoni's test average of 38.32 to other international wicketkeepers:
Ramdin 22.80
Boucher 30.70
Akmal 30.79
McCullum 37.24
Haddin 37.64
Prior 44.72
Sangakkara 56.12
Good luck finding another Indian who can keep, better that average, and someone else who can take the blame for everything that goes wrong. Top 6 batsmen fail? Dhoni's fault. Bowlers get smashed? Dhoni's fault. Poor fielding? Dhoni's fault.

and Dhoni won so many international and domestic trophies? It's his luck. 
I always found those posts stupid and hence ignored them.

India in Australia 2011-12: India to play two tour matches ahead of Australia Tests | Cricket News | Australia v India | ESPN Cricinfo
Man what the hell!! Dividing a 4 day game into two 2 days is ridiculous!! They should have gone earlier and added one more 4 day game. But I assume Indians can get through to Australian Climate then English
Exactly. Now instead of a proper 4 day first class tour match they have a 3 day tour match and a 2 day glorified net session.
Even so I'm still looking forward to this summer. For those wondering why can't New Zealand have been the 3rd team it's cause they're playing home series them. Hosting Zimbabwe and South Africa.

any idea when is the Chappell-Hadlee ODI series between AUS-NZ gonna take place ? I'm only aware of AUS playing test matches at home against NZ before India arrive for a full tour Down Under.

I thought India had no chance after their tour in England to bowl us out twice. I changed my mind after the saffa test match. I think the key for India is to bring swing bowlers especially those who love to cut the ball. Praveen Kumar could be a handful for us despite being a medium pacer. They should grab a wicket to wicket bowler as well. Probably roll us for 30 runs... gosh im going to regret this post. Just so devastated after the first south African test match.
