If I remember correctly this was the last series for Langer, Martyn, McGrath and Warne. You can't have a better ending of these sublime careers. An unbelievable team.
it was, sad not just for Australians, but also for test cricket - the technical abilities of the teams is not where it was here from the mid 00's - England with Flintoff, Vaughn, Jones, Bell, Pietersen, South Africa with Smith, Boucher & their fast bowlers, cricket misses all of these greats and I cannot stand 20/20
@@queerasthedayislonglove8950 Certain players like Ponting have admitted to playing too long and why not they are legends they didn't know it yet......
If im not mistaken the top 7 of that team got an average of 45+ and a shitload of runs through their respective careers... not to mention the likes of Warne and Mc Grath :D:D
1.Hayden 2.Langer 3.Ponting 4.Martyn 5.Clarke 6.Hassey 7.Gilchrist 8.Warne 9.Lee 10.Gillisipee 11.Mcgrath FULL WITH THE LEGENDS 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶 Gives me nightmares..
every time this opening pair in tests and gilly haydos opening pair in ODI walked into the ground, it felt like we were playing against demigods! No other pair or team can instill such an emotion in the opponent's mind like Ponting's Australian team! They were still the brats of cricket but atleast we had respect for them!
Ponting too had the habit of being a big match player.. If I'm not wrong he was the player of the series and his leadership and preparation for this series was spot on.
When this Aussies Team walked in to the arena’s(every single time)..even the oppositions, umpires, scorer’s knows who is the winner!!! No matter, who the opposition was, stadium, climate, pitch whatever... Invincibly Insane of the International Cricket. 👑🙌🏽❤️🏏🏆🥇
I don’t even watch cricket anymore, but holy Dooley, summers as a young bloke growing up watching through the 2000s is something I miss. And the commentary team to go with it.
As a long suffering English cricket fan, I really do admire these two true legends of the game. If it wasn't McGrath metronomically turning Atherton round with a cross-batted nick to slip or Warne bamboozling batsmen with prodigious spin out of the rough, it was this great opening pair that would often extinguish any vague hope of victory, let alone respectability, that England had in Ashes tests during the 1990s and Noughties. It was a privilege to watch this phenomenal generation of cricketers play with such intensity, skill and consistency. They truly revolutionised modern day test match cricket and thoroughly deserve all the respect and plaudits they earned. Testament to how good Langer was is exemplified by how prematurely Michael Slater's test career came to an abrupt halt, and I'd credit Slater as setting the tone for the aggressive manner with which other Australian batsmen (like Ponting and Gilchrist) played from the mid/late 90's onwards. One blink and Slater would have Australia 50 for none (or none for 50) after 10 overs, both tainting the figures and destroying the careers of many an opening bowler. This style of play made it possible to psychologically lose a test or even series within the first session, the rest would amount to damage limitation. Taylor and Slater were a very fine opening pair, but the partnership Hayden and Langer forged was a real advancement which took the game, scoring rates particularly, to another level. I doff my cap to you fine sirs!
Pointings team is till date one of the complete team you will ever see, perfect opening pair, strong middle order, great alrounder, explosive wicket keeper batsmen, and to top that lethal speedster with impeccable accuracy and to top that incredible leg spinner.
I use to hate them as Indian cricket fan, but as a cricket fan I used to admired them. This Australian team can never be matched by any other Aussie team!!
The way Hayden played in 2001 series, he gained my respect and has been one of my favorites ever since then. Also, the way Langer marked his spot after a bad spell of form amidst so much competition in that Australian team was remarkable. Huge respect to both of them and the Australian team of that time. They were just incredible.
We should not be scared of this mighty Australians in our childhood time's. because our Indian team in dadas captaincy gave them a great dominating challenges by defeating them in 2001 Test series. and even in their home condition in 2003 test series, It is much enough than any other challenge to them during their dominant phase.
The best ever opening pair, really it was a dream team of legends. I was a big fan of that Australian team in my childhood days. A team of legends, they had such tremendous quality.
Every time I hear him speak, I realise what a gem of a person he is. Yesterday only, when he gave that press conference after losing ODI series he was so calm and sure about what he wanted to do with this Australian team. We should learn that from him
The most dominant test opening pair I can remember. They were doing 4 runs to the over before it was even a thing. Getting them out is like killing a honey badger a right old fight and a vicious one at that.
Only for then to have Ponting come in at number 3 hammering it round the park 😂. That Australian team was an absolute nightmare. Most opposition had probably accepted defeat before they even walked onto the field.
He actually called India a third world country that has bad grounds and Indians delay intentionally during cricket. India though is a 3rd world, but we have good grounds. ;)
@@kaneater1 Well, they were given five star accommodation to stay but not kept at a dhamashala. Also, without these foreign players, IPL wouldn't be IPL. It's nothing to do with dignity. They get money for their skills. We are not doing them a favor. It's business only.
This the most wonderful video I have seen .. two legends hitting 6 and then asking if you would like to hit winning run by mighty Hayden and smiles wow .. those were the times
Legends both if You..Appreciate CA for recap if Such Good Memories. thank you CA ❤..These 2 Gentleman are the Greatest Openers I have seen..All my childhood, Haydos & Langer r my Heroes. ❤ from India.
Justin Langer is the perfect guy to coach the Australian Int'l team after all the things they went through in March last year and credit to CA for this decision.
Special chemistry that pure stats cannot convey. It's when great partnerships develop an intuitive feel and feed off each other,complement each other. When Hayden and Langer were milking singles and playing to their strengths,look out! Langers cuts amd nudges,Haydos's big game booming drives,bullying pulls and sweeps. Magic.
That team won matches before they ever entered the field through the sheer intimidation of the names playing for it. Out of 11, up to 8 were all time legends. It will be unlikely any other team can match its reputation. An opposition captain would have a tough time rallying his troops knowing this team has every aspect covered and no weaknesses. Great batting, incredible bowling and amazing fielding.
This team was so good. I always got nervous when they toured South Africa in those days. We had a good side here in South Africa at the time but this Australian side was on another level
I remember talking to my grandad about 2005 and us both saying the Aussies will never get a team full of legends all come thru at the same time again. It happens once every 50 years maybe 100. It's like football equivalent to the class of 92 when Beckham scholars butt Phil Neville Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs came thru the youth system together. It only happens once in a generation if that. Some team that cricket team was a pleasure to watch even as a pom. In England we boo and jeer opponents Mock even maybe banter them. Only because really we fear them and inwardly respect them. It's probably the reason Steve Smith gets so much hate in england. The crowd will boo him to his face and unfortunately saying he's a brilliant batsman to each other. It's a respect thing but the end of the day when it's England Vs Australia especially in England we want to make it as uncomfortable as we can.
I'm an Australian but because Australia was always winning, I tended to support the underdog team :D. But these two would always get off to a good start and dash my hopes of seeing the underdogs win. Seeing them split though didn't make me feel relieved. They were such a pleasure to watch that even someone who wasn't a fan of the Australian team felt sad seeing them go. What a partnership and what batsmen!
World Cricket without Australia would have been like Avengers without Ironman.....all abuse banters on one side....but trust me they are the toughest competitors in the field, their passion for the game is very much appreciable...and last not the least....this team this damn team Hayden, Langer, Ponting, Clarke, symonds, gili, Lee, McGrath, warne, Gillespie...not to mention Watson, martyn....insane man ....nightmares truly
@@craigslist1323 They are close. Smith has already proved it in ongoing Ashes and Warnie will get off the mark with big runs under his belt in upcoming matches. Uzzie is struggling again but I hope that he contributes to the Aussie team in a winning cause.
@@craigslist1323 Not sure about Warner yet but Smith is already one of the all-time batting greats, not just for Australia. But he doesn't have as good a team around him as Ponting did.
What a story guys. What a lovly moment. Hard to imagine. Gilly sir crying and all the Australian's being emotional and all. But nun the less a beautiful story. And that Australian team. Was once in a life time.
Donald Trump President, USA Why do you Indians always bring up your damn players when it has nothing to do with you? This video is about LANGER AND HAYDEN, not Sachin and ganguly, two overrated batsman as well mind you.
it's so sad and incredible at the same time that once this 2 actively class acts were playing together & now we are in the era watching these two greats talking to each other.
I saw many great cricketers make speeches in a small group setting. Justin Langer, even as a young man who had just broken through to test level, was one of the most impressive ever. He is a positive, motivating and very sincere man.
My childhood time cricket was d best cricket . . . take any team,take any name . . . all of them were claaaaaaaaassssssss . . . Sachin,ganguly,Rahul,shoib,inzi,jaysurya,chaminda,Glenn,warne,Lee,pointing,Hayden,Langer,Flintoff,Strauss,nasir Hussain,Lara,chandrapaul,sarwan,dillon,hooper,kallis,Pollock,smith................list goes on & on & on & on . . . 😘😘😘😘
My grandfather was their at the scg next to Langers father. A great story about this day was that the first thing langer did after taking off his pads, was hug his father. It was a beautiful moment and apparently Langers dad was a very nice lad too,!
Gosh, you just couldn't hate this team back then! I mean it felt like we're going on a battle whenever India played this team but at the end of the day usually u just stand and admire this classy team.. Best of all time surely!
This is called soft power. That australian team was so nightmarish for opponents, now that all those legends retired, fans from nemesis countries are revering them so much. This is cricket. 🇮🇳 we feared you so much back then, but we always respected you. So in CA UA-cam channel there are so many Indians.
When this team walks in to the ground most of the team were already scared and accepts there loss without even playing. Even the World XI was not able to defeat that Mammoth. Gilly Haydos opening pair, Clarke Symonds Fielding pair, Binga Pidge Bowling Pair😍😍, No matter what’s the location, they just ripped out everyone. Oh man defeating this team was like dream.
Hayden's career was not the same after Langer retired, building a strong partnership at the top is really important, I think they were in a league of their own and they set up their team so well.. well-done lads! As a Kiwi I loved their aggressive style mixed with elegance and a solid technical base, they were great to watch and tough to get out.
If I remember correctly this was the last series for Langer, Martyn, McGrath and Warne. You can't have a better ending of these sublime careers. An unbelievable team.

Martyn retired a couple of tests earlier
people forget Martyn because he walked away mid series and not at the end
Yaa this is the only ashes 5 Aussie players have been retired
Gilly also retired in this match
That Australian team still gives me nightmares....
biswanath mahapatra mate I don’t blame you! The worst thing Australia done was pressure a lot of these legends to retire earlier than they should have

How the mighty fall
I love that they used to call each other little fella and big fella.
That's so sweet
The call their fathers as Old Man too.
Yea Mathew Hayden is big fella
I am Zimbabwean but this team made me fall in love with cricket.
do u still love cricket.
Not a single cricket team can ever scale these heights again, This Australia team was the invincibles of international cricket.
Windies was pretty equally destructive in the 70's & 80's

You just never know which team will come out on top

Best opening stand of Australia ever in test matches
For me personally David Boon and Geoff Marsh in the 80s has to be my favoirite
The bottom line is, no matter what,everything will come to an end. Memories are the only treasure, we can cherish our entire life.
