Who is bothered about the results? We bowled well, other than the last two overs, lost fewer wickets than Australia and clearly was just magnanimously trying to teach Australia how to play tests again. Sure, we chose a really fucked up time to begin the lessons but we tend to get carried away with our big hearts.
There are still two more matches to go. The DOG will be tamed to a puppy again. I am sure of it.
Then, YOU WILL ALL REGRET NOT WATCHING THIS SERIES.
Then again, watching Australia lose isn't really a rarity these days.

I have hope
Now that the World Cup is over (and I have no other excuse to stay up all night and be disfunctional at work), I look forward to the Aussies coming to Bangladesh. More so because for the first time, I have hope.
That would be hopes of a win. Yes, a win. Against the Aussies.
Let me tell you why.
First of all Australia are living on reputation. They are no longer to be feared, specially when they are being led from the front my someone called Pup. Michael John Clarke is your captain? Really Australia? Michael Clarke who has yet to figure out what One Day Internationals actually are? Let's not talk about how good he was once upon a time because Michael Clarke...also living on reputation.
Second of all, any recent ODI's where Australia did not lose were played against Kenya, Canada and New Zealand.
Third of all we have spinners. Actual spinners. Not some Warne wannabes. It is irrelevant that we never had a Shane Warne to live up to. What is relevant is that YOU can't play spin.
Fourth of all Australia in the subcontinent. Do I need to even explain that?
As you can see, as this post has progressed, the hope has grown into belief. Soon, I will be gloating all over the delusional Sid from Thoughts from the Dustbin. Incidentally, she thinks it's only Bangladesh. Go read it here.
At least we had the brains to drop Crashrafool. I hear you've still kept Mussey?
