I remember watching this test match during u16 state championships in Brisbane, apart from warners brilliance in his 09 debut against SA he was unproven in the red ball game. It was so incredible watching him carry his bat in just his second test - we all felt as a group of 16 year olds that Australian cricket was safe for a few years. Great times
Incredible video mate. Whatever people think of Pup off the field, his aggressive captaincy and tactical nous really got us over the line in some of those series.
It's a shame he held grudges with guys like Simon Katich and refused to pick them even though they deserved it. We could've been much better if it wasn't for that egotistical prick. For that reason alone, he'll always be a shit captain.
That was fantastic mate. I am 32 an am frequently laughed at when I say Clarke is my favourite Australian captain in my lifetime but I think the adversity in starting from scratch with the team and the memories of this India series and the 2013-14 double ashes series well and truly justify how I feel
Great story telling mate. One of my favourite and earliest memories of going to the cricket was being at all 4 days of the 2012 SCG with my Dad and Grandad so listening to that section of the video hit home even more. Awesome video mate 👏👏
Such a great video! I remember this was the first test series I watched as a kid. And boy, watching Ponting and Clarke putting on huge partnerships was an unforgettable experience! You brought me right back to those moments!
it means a lot to indian fans who are able to win two series in australia. I remember watching that series and gobsmacked by how shit we were when we travelled overseas. I think this bowling lineup could have given tough battle to then aus batting lineup.
@@pranshukrishna5105South Africa had a much better bowling unit than India. So not a big deal.Actually they have underachieved ever since they returned to international cricket.
Love and appreciate your videos mate . Can really feel your passion for cricket in the brilliant storytelling . Thanks very much i know a lot of effort must go into these keep it up!!
@6ixandout Hey there mate, that was an interesting video! It was cool to see highlights of the past era of cricket! On a different note, the videos on the playlist on my channel titled 'Purpose of Life?' might interest some people! Anyway all the best to you and anyone reading this comment!
Love your videos ! As an aussie on the other side of the world and finding it hard to get time to watch the australian summer these really keep me going cheers mate!
What a player James Pattison was, very good with the ball and handy with the bat ... if it wasn't his injury prone biwling, he would be there with the Australian greats
Love this video! Was only a young lad when I watched this series and it’s so good to look back to see what actually went down. This all went over my head at idk 10-12 yrs old.
Another great video, mate. You are being a real educator of Australian cricket history. I didn’t know much about the Clark chapter. Thanks for enlightening me.
Great video ! As an Indian team fan I got a lot of respect for the Aussie team , their grit and professionalism . I also think their fans are being harsh after one test loss in BGT . This is the team that won em WTC final and ODI WC . India just played better in first test but that doesn’t mean it is end of the road for team Australia . We have a fascinating series on our hands !
I remember watching Michael Clarke decimating our chances to win, The series is telecast early in the morning, My dad you used to get up at 5 in the morning to watch the tests, I was leaving for school while looking at the TV sadly of clarke not getting out and getting past 300😔, I felt the might of the Aussies then but in 18-19 Virat and his men, changed everything truly🤩🔥BGT has a history of cementing the legacy of test captains like clarke and virat and we'll continue our dominance this year too💪
Man that India first 6 at its peak is crazy Gambhir, Sehwag, Tendulkar, Dravid, Laxman and Kohli it’s ridiculous how good these batters were and how good kohli is now
Wow, what a beautiful video. You can truly only connect the dots and draw the lines looking backwards. The narrative you constructed of the rise and fall of Aussie cricket here was amazing. You could draw a similar narrative of the fall of the great Indian batting line up and the rise of the next giant. In the series you covered which ended up being the last one for Dravid Laxman had a few other narratives from the Indian side too. This team hadn't managed to make 400 in any test inning for 10+ matches. That 400 in the 2nd inning at Sydney was the first time they had done so, and also the last time the combination of Dravid Laxman Tendulkar and Sehwag made 400 in an inning together. The Adelaide test with the Kohli 100 was the first in a line of 10 test centuries (as of 2024) for Virat and a sign of the next giant to come. This 4-0 loss for India was the last of the really big test losses of this decade. The next tour they lost all matches but they could have won each of the games. Post that tour they haven't lost a single series to Australia. Keep up the amazing work!
Bro.. what a beautiful trip down memory lane. Each of the test matches you mentioned brought back a ton of memories.. thank you so very much. Can India win the BGT in 2024 and also qualify for the 3rd WTC final??? As of now; we beat the Aussies at Perth and who knows if this will be Australia's worst summer in a long time... Long live test cricket.
The second series that I wanted to forget about as an Indian 😢.... Michael Clarke was a nightmare in that series. I still remember that hopelessness ... We failed as a cricketing country there.
Our problem has always been that we never had the depth coming thru coz we never thought any of those players in that great side would retire. We're having the same probs now especially in the batting & even more the openers
Pointing, Hayden, Langer, Symonds, McGrath, Warne, Brett Lee, Watson, Gilly, Martyn were dominant in their prime. They had that swagger and fire we’re missing now. Good old days when cricket had proper grit.
Australian team of the last 10 years has been a great team too. Winning 4 out of their total 10 ICC tournaments in the last 10 years time is not a joke. I'd call it the 2nd strongest Aussie team ever & 3rd strongest cricket team ever only behind West Indies in their hayday & Aussies of 1999-2009.
I played against Michael Clarke on many occasions in grade cricket in Sydney and even clean bowled him in a one-day game. I'm a complete nobody when it comes to cricket but one night several years later, Clarke comes up to me in a nightclub the calls me by my name and I was a iittle surprised. Even though he was a complete tosser on the field, off field he was came across like a reasonable guy and I would have to give him credit for that.
good video cobber! i currently have similar thoughts about our current team - our current team has been a fantastic one, with players such as Smudge; our trio of quicks and Gary; but i’d like us to find the talent to replace our greats. i currently don’t see any answers, i reckon we need to be a little more proactive in finding replacements.
Can you make a video on how Tim Paine was a disaster for our team and his sext scandal was the best thing to happen in my lifetime? He was a below average keeper, a worse batsman than our strike bowlers, yet couldn't be dropped from the team because he was a the damn captain who also made terrible on field calls. The Tim Paine years felt truly dark.
Hey man it would be a good idea to make a video about the current state of australian cricket. It seems to be in a decline with some of the senior players retiring soon or being out of form.
The parallels between then and now are eerie. We have two superstars in Smith and Labuschagne who appear to be aging and losing their edge. We have an aging seam attack and a spinner who's now into his late 30's. Khawaja is also old for a test batter (he'll be 38 by the MCG test) and it's a bit early to say but he may be losing his edge as well. And we have a selection panel that seems unwilling to weild the axe. I thought before this series started Marnus should have been dropped and Marsh if he can't bowl is just not fulfilling the role that Australia need. Cameron Green was covering some glaring holes (he pretty much stole a test match for Australia in NZ this year) and with him out the team looks tired and unbalanced. My first test team would have been Khawaja, Bancroft, McSweeney, Smith, Head, Webster, Carey, Cummins, Starc, Lyon, Hazelwood. I know Bancroft had a horror start to the year but Perth is his home deck and instead we threw McSweeney in against Bumrah. Crazy selection.
Bro posted "losing back to back was the best happened to Australia" and then AUS win the cwc23 after losing 1st two matches of the tournament Now he posted Australia's 4-0 win over India with exact amount of matches having left in the BGT for Australia to win 😮
Unfortunately they couldn't keep this form and were in turned whitewashed in the next BGT, Remember Michael Clarke stating about Dhoni's seriousness in that BGT, In 2012/13 India would get back at Aus at home whitewashing the visitors eventually, Aus would get back their momentum after 2013/14 Ashes but lose it after Clarke's and Mitchell Johnson's retirement.
I really couldnt care less what the numbers may say. The fact is he was an egotistical, selfish prima donna and he still is to this day. The worst thing they could've done was give him official power to select the side. Guys like Simon Katich missed out simply because Pup refused to put the team first even though that guy was the best option at the time to open alongside Warner.
Ah back to the simpler times when Indian Cricket Team traveled overseas just to get bullied and make sad emoji faces. Crazy how the power dynamics shifted just half a decade later.
Brother how can we change after decade they just win series in Australia 2 times They lost in England 4-1 in 2018 They lost in South Africa 2-1 in 17/18 They lost another series in South Africa 2-1 in 21/22 They drew the series 2-2 in 2021 in England only 2 series won in Australia

My mate and I recognised Hughes's talent when he first burst onto the Sheffield Shield stage. This was in the 2007/08 season.

Poor Doug Bracewell, should have had a Stella career alongside Southee. If only he didn't hang out with Jesse Ryder so much.
He snorts coke. He's havin the time of his life. Wooooo !
Clark’s Aussie team is so underrated in the great Aussie teams
Very good analysis 👍 subscribed..

what a video man big ups to u!! ❤❤
Man that India first 6 at its peak is crazy Gambhir, Sehwag, Tendulkar, Dravid, Laxman and Kohli it’s ridiculous how good these batters were and how good kohli is now

Hi mate namaste
From India would like to ask you how much cricket is
really popular in Australia specially youth people
Have a nice day ❤❤
Cheers mate! I agree.
@Scholars_Squad Sounds like a decent idea for a video...
Do this type of vids for 2018-19 and 2021-22 bgt as well

Well said ol boy,
The team currently is in free fall literally!

Hughes passing is sad as person but as a player we could or really used him over the last 10 years at certain points
It happens in a lot of sports. You get teams having winning cycles. Top teams, I mean. Then the cycle ends, due to the quality not being there mainly.
You should review 2010/11 ashes series and then Australia vs south africa test series 2012/13 in Australia
Bro posted "losing back to back was the best happened to Australia" and then AUS win the cwc23 after losing 1st two matches of the tournament
Now he posted Australia's 4-0 win over India with exact amount of matches having left in the BGT for Australia to win 😮

is there a video for the rest of 2010s aussie team
R I.P Phillip Hughes😢
Could have done with that David Warner 100 at Perth the other day
Yeah he used to get a lot of criticism from all sides but he was such a solid opener
That Ponting century at Adelaide was actually his last.
That India series was also the beginning of Australian fans throwing all their frustrations Shaun Marsh's way haha
Can you do a video about the lead up and the after math around the 5-0 2014 white was ashes it was a fascinating result and fall off
Make a video on mohmmad asif please please
Micheal BenStokes Clarke 🔥
they need to bring back the cricket academy
Video on bgt

Saying that Australia won the 2007-08 bgt at home is a desecration of English language.
Bucknor carried the Aussies to a series win
Up the black caps. I remember I wagged school to watch us beat the Aussies third time ever
I can't tell if this video is about Michael Clarke or Michael Hussey
Unfortunately they couldn't keep this form and were in turned whitewashed in the next BGT, Remember Michael Clarke stating about Dhoni's seriousness in that BGT, In 2012/13 India would get back at Aus at home whitewashing the visitors eventually, Aus would get back their momentum after 2013/14 Ashes but lose it after Clarke's and Mitchell Johnson's retirement.
Could you make a video about Kohli-Shastri era?
One video on Virat Kohli in Australia through out his career
back in Dhoni's era, if a team's batsmen were out of form, they simply had to face Indian bowlers to regain it.
I really couldnt care less what the numbers may say. The fact is he was an egotistical, selfish prima donna and he still is to this day. The worst thing they could've done was give him official power to select the side.

They lost in England 4-1 in 2018
They lost in South Africa 2-1 in 17/18
They lost another series in South Africa 2-1 in 21/22
They drew the series 2-2 in 2021 in England only 2 series won in Australia
@divyamtehria8574 nice nitpicks👏
I always thought Ben Hilfenhaus was very underrated and James Pattinson could of been an Aussie great if he never got injured
