1996-97 doesn't count... that wasn't a series..

I didn't remember the 1998 one...

More importantly, when did Aus last lose a series 2-0? DB's answered that on my facebook wall..

1983-84 Windies 3, aus 0.

Q said...

DB mentioned 1988/89 against the WI..

Source Times of India:
This is the first series in which Aus have lost 2 or more tests without winning a single test. they were beaten by 0-3 by Lloyd's Windies in 1983-84

a cricinfo check?

Cricinfo check:

West Indies wins the 5-Test series 3-1.

Thats the 1988/89 one - that was the last time Australia lost 2 or more tests in a series.

The 1983-84 one was the last time Australia lost 2 or more tests without winning a single one.

Does it matter LOL... now they will start all over again with NZ and come back again in 3 years time to get their unbeaten record broken.

A series win gives you bragging rights LOL

Seriously,

It's like dog-years now since I've seen them lose comprehensively.

Last time such things happened, MSD had just his made his debut, in the world I mean, and Yuvi was in his nappies; and I would guess Ishant was being contemplated on.

Q - you're one tough taskmaster.

answered the first q, you ask another more "important" one.

The Times of India appeared to have answered that.

As does DB on FB.

And then cricinfo too.

But that is 3-1, isn't the 2nd Q, when did Aus last lose a series 2-0? DB's answered that on my facebook wall..
