Sadly if you are an Australian or Australian sports fan the recent past has not been so good for the Aussies.As it was expected and it also turned out to be true the retirement of the likes of Hayden,Gilchrist,Langer,Mcgrath and of course Shane Warne at almost the same time has hit the team very badly.It all started in 2009 when the Aussies lost the Ashes that they won 5-0 at home to the English.After that Australia has just not been the same.They lost the twenty20 world championship to their arch rivals England,who have not won any major world tournaments in cricket history.As of today they struggle with their mediocre bowling attack which sadly has not been able to replace the previous one well and an out of form batting lineup with the exception of Mike Hussey.It all culminated at the 2nd test held at Adelaide of the on-going Ashes series by Australia losing to England by an innings.This brings me to my point,has the Aussie dominance ended over world cricket because if that is true it will indeed mark the end of an era and the beginning of a new one in world cricket.
