Cricket - SA Vs AUS - The greatest game ever....was it?

Holy crap damn shit!

Well, these were some of the first words when I first set my eyes on the Australian scorecard at around 40 overs or so. After that, I didn't have any!
First of all, for those who really don't have a shit of an idea of what I am talking about, sample this:

Nearly 900 runs in a day in as much as 99.5 overs.
87 fours
nearly 30 sixes
Highest run chase ever (I mean ever...I still can't believe it happened)
Bowling Analysis: 10 - 0 - 113 - 0 (I really feel for the guy now as I have also been massacred a few times in my juvenile bowling career).
Just 'Mind Boggling'!

Purists will argue that it wasn't a fair contest and I do agree. I mean after this kind of ruthlessness, Pollock and Mcgrath would be thanking their stars that they missed this game. But you have to remember that the main aim of 'One Day' cricket is the entertainment of the crowd so I guess the worries about bowling being subdued should be shown the door. I still say, Test cricket is real cricket and if you are one of those who craves for 'real', then you can go watch that. For others, this game has spawned a new era of possibilities in the one day form of the game. I daresay that this might be an eventual effect of 20-20 in which both the teams involved have an edge over other teams. At the same time, if all games end up like this, it will take the fun part away from the game. Any team would be more than happy to just include 11 batsmen in their ranks and be happy about it.

Overall, I think a very good exhibition of cricket and the ending was just fantastic. I regret that I missed the live coverage and was able to follow it on cricbuzz only but then just following was too much fun. Imagine if you were in the ground!

Nothing more to say as I m too damn dazed from the proceedings anyway.
Aloha.
