Waqt badalte der nahi lagti! Jo team kabhi world cricket par raj karti thi, aaj wo T20 World Cup 2026 se bahar hokar ek dead-rubber game khel rahi hai. Five-time ODI World Cup winners aur T20 ke sher kahe jane wale Aussies ka safar khatam ho chuka hai. Aaj ka match sirf ek formality hai, ek aisi kadi jo Australia apne dil par patthar rakh kar khel rahi hai. Mitchell Marsh ki paltan ke liye ye tournament kisi nightmare se kam nahi raha.
The Inner Story : Matt Renshaw Ki Wapsi Aur Australia Ka Dard
Colombo aur Pallekele mein mili karari har ne Australia ka ghamand choor-choor kar diya hai. Mitchell Marsh ne toss jeet kar pehle bowling karne ka faisla kiya hai, lekin is faisle mein wo purani chamak nahi dikh rahi. Team mein sirf ek badlav kiya gaya hai: Matt Renshaw ko Cooper Connolly ki jagah laya gaya hai. Hairani ki baat ye hai ki Steven Smith ko abhi bhi playing XI mein jagah nahi mili hai. Shayad management ne maan liya hai ki ab purane chawal se kaam nahi chalega.
Mitchell Marsh ne toss ke waqt saaf kaha ki wo "back home" se aa rahi noise ko sun rahe hain. Wahan ke fans aur media ne team ki dhajjiya uda di hain. Wahi dusri taraf Oman ne char bade badlav kiye hain. Captain Jatinder Singh ne un sabhi players ko chance diya hai jo ab tak bench garam kar rahe the. Oman ke liye ye match seekhne ka mauka hai, lekin Australia ke liye ye sirf ek zaleel hone se bachne ki koshish hai.
Sach toh ye hai ki is World Cup mein Australia ka haal hamare padosi desh Pakistan jaisa ho gaya hai. Farq bas itna hai ki Pakistan ko har baar calculator lekar baithne ki aadat hai, jabki Australia ke liye ye sadma naya hai. Zimbabwe aur Sri Lanka ne unhe aisi shikast di hai jise bhulne mein unhe sadiyan lag jayengi. Even Pakistan ke fans bhi aaj Aussies ka mazaak uda rahe honge, kyunki wo khud toh qualify karte nahi aur dusron ke bahar hone par jashn manate hain.
Analysis & Numbers
- Australia ko Zimbabwe ne 23 runs se hara kar sabse bada ulatfer kiya tha.
- Sri Lanka ne Aussies ko 8 wickets se dhool chatayi, jiske baad unka net run rate ICU mein chala gaya.
- Oman ne apne is tournament mein teen bade nuksaan jhele hain: Zimbabwe se 8 wickets, Sri Lanka se 105 runs aur Ireland se 96 runs ki haar.
- Adam Zampa aur Glenn Maxwell jaise big names is pure tournament mein flop rahe hain.
The Guru Gyan Verdict:
Australia ka ye haal dekh kar dukh toh nahi, par hairani zaroor hoti hai. Cricket mein dominance hamesha nahi rehti, aur ye Aussies ko samajh aa gaya hoga. Aaj ka match jeet bhi gaye toh kya? Tournament se toh boriya-bistar gol ho chuka hai. Hum toh bas yehi kahenge ki "Welcome to the club, Australia!" Ab baith kar hamare saath India vs Afghanistan ka high-voltage match dekho, jahan asli cricket kheli jaati hai. Aussies need a massive overhaul, warna agle World Cup mein shayad qualifier khelna pad jaye!
