The worry for Cricket Australia

Cricket Australia is worried about the dwindling attendances during the recent Sri Lanka series. Plus, they see no reason to hope for a revival in their fortunes.

“the position won’t improve in the coming weeks. Before Christmas, Australia
will meet New Zealand in three one day matches and a Twenty20 match. New Zealand
is currently ranked fifth on the One Day International ratings table so another
lopsided series looms.


Then Australia and India will
player three Tests, the first starting on Boxing Day in Melbourne. While India
ranks third on the Test ratings table, England ranks second! If Australia scored
an easy clean sweep against the Poms last summer, what will it do to India this
summer?”

Our expatriates will be at the stadium in full force so that is the least of their worries.


However about what Australia will do to India, anyone willing to hazard a guess?

Expletives welcomed. :)
