truly a shot to admire
What a captain Ponting was. Look how close the boys were, like a family. That is what a great captain does.
The closeness of that side is lacked today. It probably came about cause they played so many matches together and had more time to get close as friends. Think about it, how many of that side were not international cricket veterans at that point?
Spot on. A side that enjoys each other's company will always dig deep when it matters and the captain has everything to do with that. Creating a good vibe, balancing egos, knowing when and when not to join team for beers etc...
The Clarke came along and bred toxicity and arrogance throughout our team. Was downhill after that.
@@geetuz Oh C'mon mate, Clarke was a symptom of the illness. The culture that was propagated in our team was the real cause of the downfall. Not to mention lack of quality. Even if there was quality, it was never in the same period and was spread out.
Ponting was no doubt a good Captain. He stood upon the shoulders of three other very good Captains in Border, Taylor & Waugh. Teams like this don’t happen in a vacuum. Personally I think the Waugh era team was a little better.
All commenting about good old days are 90's kids just like me. I badly miss my childhood.
Yup what a golden days it was!.
@@Rohitsingh-om3qh Most pathetic days with Most matches were fixed during those Days And Disgraceful match fixing was at its peak in those Days Especially Wasim Akram,Mohmmad azharudin,Saleem Malik etc were the Brand Ambassdor of corruption.I dont found them any good for the Game.

"The Golden Eleven of Australian Era" was one dominance I felt has never seen before, not even a single team...
Australian teams of that era are probably unmatched in the history of cricket.
JMarz And Bradman’s Invincibles
In any sports i might add.
Not even in football anyone was so dominant
I remember One ODI final match of triangular series between India and Australia. India just need to chase some 230 around but Australia was so tough they always make score 230 look like 350. India lost the match despite of the good alrounder performance of Dinesh Mongia.
True.. 💯
Loved when McGrath said "Just another day at the office in masterclass interview" 🤣🤣
What a time to watch cricket; 150km/h were normal deliveries , aussie was the best; even their tailenders batted good; ball used to swing a lot, tendulkar was batting star, wasim was a bowling legend, warne was the best, jaysuriya was the present maxwell; yuvi was a promising youngster ; akhter was the rawalpindi express, dravid was the wall💔💔
And there were no toxic fans
Bruh stop crying over the past, it's just that you loved all those cricketers too much. There are bowlers who still bowl 150,the ball still swings, there are new promising Youngsters, New classie batsman, new swingers and new amazing spinners
@@AMITKUMAR-qg2ox no body bowls 155kph ! Ball doesn't swing like that( only Anderson swings, that too on cloudy days) Ball even doesn't turn like warne did, cricket has changed! Thanks to t20
@@AMITKUMAR-qg2ox 150 isn't normal nowadays lmao
@@notshubhransh first of all i would say keyboard warriors who have never seen the ground reality of cricket don't know what 155 is,it's literally fiery pace and if u get the chance of watching live cricket match in stadium, you would be scared even by seeing 130kmh, so basically 155 is just pure NATURAL TALENT. It cannot be developed. So stop having weird expectations from Cricketers and if u feel like there are no super quick bowlers, did u watch jofra bowling in ipl?? He was clocking 154 nortje clocking 156 and in int'l mark wood clocked 152.and if u think it's not normal, looks like u think bowling 155 is a piece of cake then why don't u pick up the ball and start bowling?
Few days later, Gillespie went a few steps further and scored a double century.

@@bharath2477 they are not the Asian players they are trying their best for their country
@@sharafatali5753 Agree. Australia was the only team I have ever seen and admired since my childhood that had tailenders who had good batting skills unlike that of other teams. Maybe England also had tailenders who can also bat well comparatively.

Except for nz. We had didly squat. Didn’t stop me from watching every ball I could. A golden age of cricket
I used to hate this Aussie team. Now I can't stop watching their clips. Great players.

Gilly was so happy for them. Love you gilly.
To me, the best part of this video is when Gilchrist laughs and appreciates Megrath's shots with big warm smile. Such a pure soul he was. I was 10 years old back then and now I am a full adult. If there is anything that I badly miss right now, it's Gilchrist, for sure. May God bless you, Gilly! Lots of Love from Nepal! 🇳🇵♥️ 🇦🇺
The joy in Gilchrist face is priceless ❤️

Zach Oldham Official For all time. Never played another test. Only player in history to be dropped and never selected to play another test after a double ton.
He was injured and then retired but okay
Frodo Shaggins He did not retire from Test cricket. He was simply not selected after the Bangladesh test in which he scored the 201 in 2006. He didn’t retire from 1st class cricket until 2008

Those were the days when Australian trio of Ponting, Gilchrist and Hayden was like a nightmare for bowlers in ODIs. Even if you manage to get rid of them earlier, then still you have to face the titans like Martin,Lehman,Simonds and Bevan.
Justin Langer too.
And even the tailenders could make the bowlers cry. Ruaiii.
Bevan was magic.
Clarke too

I haven't seen the windies team of 1980's , so can't say anything about them. But this sir , this Australian team will always be the greatest cricket team i have ever seen. Watching this inning again after so many years , brings back the childhood memories. I used to wake up early in the morning just to watch test matches played in Australia.
Thanks cricket Australia for uploading such wonderful videos. Respect and love for you. 🙂

To be fair, it's basically the exact same emotions for the exact same reasons. The surprise of their friend's success at what they're notoriously bad... is there anything exactly like it?
Glenn McGrath could have gotten a duck in every single one of his innings, and it still wouldn't have taken away from his legacy. GOAT. Ruined most of my childhood memories of cricket lol
I remember feeling the same when watching the original Master Blaster, the great Vivian Richards, when I was a kid. So fearsome yet so much respect for him even after he repeatedly tore our pace attack to shreds.
This doesn't look like a team, It's family ❤️. No wonder they were so successful. The love, the joy and the celebrations for each others success is so amazing. Glad I grew up watching this 😊😊
This Australian team gave me a lot of moments to cry... They always beat teams like it is a joke for them
Yes !! They conquered wherever they go
An incredible team

Great reaction from Gilly. That cracked me up
Awesome observation bro
This Australian squad is one of the strongest squad in the history of any team sports respectively....
Golden years of Aussie cricket. Gilchrist was loving it. The mateship on the team around this time was outstanding.
Those days! Australia was such a dominant force back then (they always have been). I dont think any other team has dominated cricket as they did (leaving the vintage WI era aside).
And a special mention for the commentary during that period, pure gold 👌
Gilly's reactions are everything.
This was an era where anything the Aussies touched became Gold, Glenn McGrath you are a legend and a great human being, Kudos
Unquestionably one of the greatest bowling partnerships of all time with a very rare batting masterclass. Kudos to the legends
Glad that I grown watching these legends..... ❤️ Gilly, Hayden, Clarke, ponting, Langer, McGrath , Gillespie, warne..... The real mighty Australians🔥

Those days were the best. Waking up at 5 am in the morning just to see the mesmerizing performance from Aussies
They were the legendary team ever. They must miss each others company in the dressing room badly. Respect.
Look at Gillie, what a great teammate!
Jason Gillespie.. one of the best bowlers ever and underrated in that great Australian team. Always a pleasure to see him succeed. Unfortunate that he was dropped at the first sign of a dip in form.
'dippy gillespie'
1:50 With Lawry's laconic commentary. That's just a beautiful moment of Australian television.
This Aussie team will remain in cricket history forever
Feels like it was yesterday that it happened, 15 years have passed by. 2000-2007 was amazing for cricket fans, specially 90s kids.

These days kids won’t understand the real cricket feeling. Miss those days.
Always envied the fact that Australian bowlers are usually very good batsman as well.
remember coulter-nile's that one innings where he smashes his way to 90* and not out?
Honestly Gillespie and McGrath were very ordinary batters, our bowlers have only been good bats for the last 10 years or so. We currently have by far the best tail end in the world but it wasnt a strength of this golden team besides Warne who was pretty handy.
But nz bowled terrible bad as well
Avg of 4 lol
Agar 98 at no 11 against england in england ashes test
Fantastic, those were the days
I remember watching this match as a 17 year old I am an Indian i was one of the biggest fan of piegon and he got 50 i was over the moon for him Great Glenn McGrath and I miss that shake of head when he was hit for four and damn those tieing of shoe laces also😄
Now thats y we called cricket a gentlemans game this is fun to watch this is real test of test cricket 🏏 miss all memories of my teen age back that time i was 14 and i remember i watch his gillespee fifty i awake early at 3am in indian time to watch this match
I see Damien Martyn at the Australian dressing room, what a classy batsman he was
Yes my favourite..I used to copy his shot styles in my town when I was 12-16 years old
and very underrated..
Yeah I still wear my sunnies backwards on top of the head like he did :)
My kids are like “that Martyn is an awesome player”. When I tell them he wasn’t the best batsman in the team and people like Mark Waugh kept him out of the side in the 90’s they look amazed.
Absolute legends, I'm so grateful to have been able to watch that era of cricket.
Those were the days, we were unstoppable.
Go the Aussies ❤👍
Glen McGrath, always the gentleman of Australian cricket. I remember early in his career he was a genuine number 11 with the bat, but he improved as his test career progressed. He put a high price on his wicket and never just threw it away. It was great seeing these wonderful video clips again. I remember one of his ambitions was to hit the willing runs in a test. From a bowler who contributed many test wickets in his career, undoubtedly being his contribution towards winning, it is amazing having an ambition like that.
Jason Gillespie the only NIGHTWATCHMEN in test history to score a double century......and after that test did not get the chance to play again.
Because he retired

I'm pretty sure I was around 17 when this happened and I think I watched it live, what a great memory for Glenn and any Aussie cricket fan to cherish. I was actually laughing like punter watching this.
T20 will never produce moments like this...

That’s what some people don’t get. Longer form cricket can produce more memorable games but they prefer the adrenaline rush of t20 over the multi day drama of tests.

Jason G, the only player (In memory) never to play for his country after scoring a double ton.
Sad & Heart breaking.
This bitter truth always gets me😔
Cheryl Abellar yep. He scored his 200 in Bangladesh then was dropped from the team. It would probably also the highest score by a night-watchmen....
TBH, players get selected on the basis of their primary job. In Gillespie's case, it was obviously bowling. He had done well with the ball in the Bangladesh series and the first class season prior to that but had struggled before that in the 2005 Ashes and his bowling was on an overall decline.
Brad Hodge got dropped from the Aussie Team after scoring a double ton. I believe the reason was he was filling a batting spot due to injury to a star.
