What are some of the worst losses you have experienced as a sports fan?
For me, the ‘97 and ‘98 AFL preliminary finals that the Bulldogs lost rate very highly. The Socceroos World Cup qualifier loss on away goals in ‘97 is also right up there, as is the loss to Italy at the ‘06 World [...]
Younis Khan and Michael Clarke have given completely unbiased comments to the press over Saeed Ajmal ’s doosra.
Michael Clarke has said,
“Watto certainly didn’t go to the umpires and say a word, none of our players have approached the umpires and spoken about it…I think Watto was pretty upset with the shot he played and getting [...]

This Sunday Age article on under-20s [...]
Yes it’s about the IPL. Don’t pick up the Age or send the kid out to get a Latte just yet, this might interest you.
The IPL has lacked a little something this year, mostly close games, but there is one thing it has that it has never had before, a fake IPL player dishing [...]
I wasn’t at Michael Clarke’s press conference after the latest loss to Pakistan, but I can imagine it…….

Michael Clarke: No way champ. That is rubbish. There are fewer sporting clubs in the world who deliver spin better than us. Tell me Michael Hussey [...]
