Looking Forward To 2009
Quite a lot has happened in the world of cricket since I last posted here – had a bit of time off the computer over Christmas, as I needed to recharge my writing batteries for all that 2009 brings!
I’m not going to go into too much depth right now since the test series against India is done and dusted, suffice to say there were signs that we were doing ok, without having the talent/belief to close a result out. Since then we’ve heard that captain KP and coach Moores aren’t getting along too well which doesn’t really bode well. It’s unclear how this will be resolved right now, but the ECB aren’t going to want to upset their captain and best batsman before the vital summer we face, and the Ashes series along with the Twenty20 world cup in this country.
Speaking of the Ashes, I’ve been delighted to see Australia beaten in their own back yard by South Africa! It looks like they might claw back the 3rd test, but with SA already 2 up they will win the series – the first touring side to do so in Australia for a long time. Australia really don’t look the same side they did when they beat us 5-0 in 06/07, so we could be in for a treat of an Ashes battle this summer.
Anyway, lots more to come on this blog over the next year, so keep coming back and let me know if you want to voice your opinion about any of it and I’ll be more than happy to post it here!

Cricket coach says:
all this resignation news will not englands cause… not good…not good at all!
Aussie Cricket Pro says:
Also looking forward to 2009, from an Aussie perspective. Expect a leaner, hungrier Aussie outfit to board that Quantas jet to the Cape in February with one thing on their mind. Revenge. At stake is the number one spot in the ICC rankings and the right to call themselves the best team in the world.
Then we’ve got the Ashes to follow it up, against a rubbish england team – perfect!!
Rich says:
Hi Aussie pro – good bit of banter there and I hope you come back in the summer when I can give a bit of it back (here’s hoping!).
By the way – has Shaun Tait stopped chucking it now he’s back?! He was bowling quick the other day but I still loved watching Duminy dispatch him to the boundary!!
