just heard on the news that the Aussies tour of Zimbabwe has finished before it even really started.

Don't know why they even went over there in the first place :?

Is that because the ICC declared that the matches would not have official test match status?

We had no business in going there in the first place, so I couldn't care less really... :evil:

even accounting for the fact that most of the "rebels" had come back to the fold..... they themselves said they were quite underdone and wouldn't be able to compete at that level..

waste of time.... yep :x

Zimbabwe officials offered to pull the pin to avoid having their test status stripped.

If we didn't even make it over there, Cricket Australia would have been fined massively a la England during the World Cup.

As for the Chucker - he was on the news saying that the longer the 'Western World' wanted him out, the longer he will stay on. He play two tunes, pathetic whingy, constantly being picked on to the worlds media, and to his own, strong, defiant.... let's see if he comes to Australia this tour..

I'll bet he doesn't come to australia :x

he's a whinging little mummies boy, who will run away crying the first time somebody starts sledging him.....

.. and boy will they start sledging him :twisted:

I'm not sure that he will come to Oz either. He has always said that he won't coz of the sledging, and he is probably scared that he will not get as many wickets as he does against Zimbabwe and Bangladesh.

Looks like the Zimbabweans have at least been competitive in the first one dayer, although it looks like it is only their normal players that are putting in good performances.
