5th One Dayer

[GoEagles]

India batted first and made 6/265 off their 50 overs. VVS Laxman got 101 and apart from Ganguly (76) Australia did quite well, they got Tendulkar out in the 3rd over.

In reply Australia is 0/6...

 

[Visro]

Hope Hayden gets another good score...he must be pretty close to man of the series I reckon.

Vis

 

[GoEagles]

Hayden got 36, Ponting got 4.
Gilchrist is the shining light so far - he's on 74* and Australia is 2/128 after 20 overs.

 

[GoEagles]

3/184 in the 32nd over.
Gilchrist was out for 76 b Tendulkar (100th wicket)

Steve Waugh and Michael Bevan are going along nicely, plenty of overs remaining. Only a collapse would see us lose!

 

[GoEagles]

4/194 now at the 36th over stage - Steve Waugh bites the dust. Tendulkar took his 99th for Gilchrist and 100th for Steve Waugh (glad thats cleared up!) 'Boof' Lehman is in now - will he score the winning runs for us, a la World Cup in 99?

 

[GoEagles]

1 over later Lehman is gone! Symonds is now out to the crease! Australia 5/197

 

[GoEagles]

Uhoh Symonds has left us too! Ian Harvey to the rescue! 6/212

 

[CJ]

The Aussies will win the decider! They only need another 27 runs off 30 balls with 4 wickets!!

 

[CJ]

Sorry about interupting you running commentary GoEagles!

 

[CJ]

Just to comfirm the result, the Aussies have won by 4 wickets!

 

[GoEagles]

No probs CJ! You were right! Australia did win with Bevan scoring a 4 to win the game and series for us. No bad considering we were 2-1 down and looking out of place. Hopefully we can take this victory with us to England and stick it up the Poms!

 

[GoEagles]

Arg... there you go again - beating me to the score. Þ

 

[JUBJUB]

HAYDEN won man of the series

.Tony Grieg mustn't of had anything to do with the voting.

Hayden scored more runs in the series than Tendulkar despite playing one less game.
