Australia tour of India 2013 . Team was in shambles , coaching staff didn ' t have good rapport with the players and led to the Homework scandal and all its ridiculousness . We got thumped 40 just as we ' re trying to get some momentum before backtoback Ashes series . It wasn ' t just how badly we lost , it was the state of the team and the utter mess that was going on . There ' s a good reason they changed coach after that series . As much as some might claim that Australian cricket is in a shit state right now , it ' s really not . The players are playing poorly and that ' s about it . Beyond the Maddinson selection there isn ' t really too much being done wrong outside the playing XI . <| sep |> I grew up in Texas and lived there until I was 25 . Moved to Northern California and the drivers here are 10 fold worse than Texan drivers .
