Chad Medal - Cricket Season - Week 1

After a short break, the Chad is back. This week, there was no need for nominations as there was one clear winner - the Australian cricket team for their outstanding performance in the one-dayer against Sri Lanka. After posting a modest total of 239, the Australians had Sri Lanka on the ropes at 8-107 . But then Angelo Mathews (what sort of curry-muncher name is that anyway?) and Lasith "Mal" Malinga compiled a record 9th wicket ODI partnership of 132 runs to guide Sri Lanka to a humiliating victory over Australia. To rub salt into the wounds, Chuck Muralitharan hit the winning runs. So was skipper Michael Clarke fuming when interviewed after the game? Ah, no, when interviewed by Mark Nicholas, instead of showing anger and disgust, his first reaction was to giggle. Yes, that's right, after losing an unlosable game, our skipper was giggling like a fucking school girl. I understand that you are happy with your lot in life, Clarkey, you are getting paid over $500k pa to play cricket and you date supermodels, but captaining your team to an embarrassing loss is no laughing matter. Can you imagine Ian Chappell having a good old laugh when Malinga hit Johnson for another 6? Or Steve Waugh rolling around in hysterics when Siddle served up a big turd burger with burnt chips? I don't think so. This Australian team does not bleed for Australia. They are more interested in appearing on Australia's Next Top Model. So well done Clarkey and your bunch of prima donnas on winning the first Chad Medal of the cricket season. Hilditch, it is about time you removed your head from arse and made some changes otherwise this Ashes series is going to end in tears. I for one could not stand to see us lose to the smug likes of Strauss and Pietersen.
