Vic, I am not sure anyone on here really thinks that the Aussies on here are any more racist than some of the reprobates over here.

who would live the wast Indian team of the 80's (other than the players who played against them...)

On a flight recently I watched the documentary fire in Babylon. It showed young West Indians cry due to racist chants by Aussie fans. It also shows first hand accounts of players who toured Australia back in the days. It may have been a Black/White thing of those days.

On a different note...here's a very interesting comment from CricInfo about the upcoming one day..this guy is a legend

Enjoy your consolation victories in these helter-skelter T20Is and ODIs Australia, for you have a golden opportunity to thump arguably the worst limited-overs side we've ever put out for you. Sajid Mahmood and Liam Plunkett - you are both forgiven.
In Ravi Bopara we have a T20 batsman whose feet are so rooted to the crease that they probably grow out from under it. In Jade Dernbach we have a bowler so hopelessly prodigal he's reportedly caused another worldwide financial crisis. In Luke Wright we have a "fearsome" striker of the ball that plays and misses at 5 in a row, then edges the next one. A couple of fifties, maybe, followed by single figure score followed by single score. In Jos Buttler, we have a wicketkeeper batsman who doesn't keep wicket for his county and nearly averages single figures in ODIs. Bowlers, shrivel in fear and trepidation! In Eoin Morgan, we have an out-of-form Irishman who can't score any runs for Middlesex.
Have fun everybody, enjoy the carnage!
