Not only there's cricket in Australia, they've got a pretty good national soccer team as well... In qualification games they usually get to play against some major football nations like American Samoa... this 2001 game ended in a 0-31 victory for the socceroos...Belgians (and especially SK Lierse fans) might remember Archie Thompson... he scored 13 goals in this game... (probably more than he ever made in Belgian competition).
The picture above is from when Australia qualified for the last world cup (video), after beating the slightly stronger Uruguay team (i mean stronger than American Samoa of course ;o)) ... through a penalty shootout... The decisive penalty was shot by John Aloïsi, who used to play for Royal Antwerp Football Club one day...
