Over 27.6: Watson OUT! Watson advances, hits it sweetly, but in the vicinity of Raina at short extra cover who takes an excellent low catch. Big breakthrough for India. Watson gone for an excellent 79. Australia 4/157.
20 overs remaining : M Clark (26) - Cosgrove (1)

Toss: Michael Hussey has won his first toss as captain and Australia will bat.
Team news: Matthew Hayden is playing his first ODI since the NatWest Challenge in England in July 2005 and he will open with Simon Katich, who replaces Damien Martyn in the team. Shane Watson is slotted at No.3 and Andrew Symonds comes it to provide firepower lower down the order. They also have a new look bowling attack. Glenn McGrath, Mitchell Johnson and Brad Hogg are out and Brett Lee, Nathan Bracken and Dan Cullen are their replacements.
West Indies, on the other hand, have made just one change to strengthen their batting. Marlon Samuels has replaced Fidel Edwards - a move perhaps prompted after the dreadful collapse against Australia in the first match.
Play is about to get underway. Australia's Test opening firm of Hayden and Katich are together in ODI colours after 15 months. JeromeTaylor has the new ball and will run in to bowl from over the wicket to Hayden. Lara has one slip and a short midwicket in place.

OH MY FUCKING GOD YOU ARE SHIT STUART CLARK! I'm so glad we gave him so much shit at the Gabba that he dobbed on us to the umpire.
He's 31 in 10 days, fricken drop him. He's not the future.
23 runs from the over. We are fucked! Clark's current figures are 0/87 off 7 overs29.6 Clark to Gayle, no run
29.6 Clark to Gayle, (no ball) 2 runs, oh my, he oversteps yet againand drifts on to the pads, worked down to fine leg
29.6 Clark to Gayle, (no ball) 2 runs, played past point for one, that's the end of an 11-ball over
29.6 Clark to Gayle, 1 wide, this time he doesn't over step but he still sprays it down leg side, wide called
29.6 Clark to Gayle, 1 no ball, another no-ball and it was sprayed down leg side as well, Clark is having a horrendous night
29.5 Clark to Gayle, no run, drifts down leg side, the ball hits the pad and goes to short fine leg
29.5 Clark to Lara, (no ball) 1 run, dropped at mid-on but it was a no-ball anyway! Lara lofted it straight to Cullen at mid-on but the ball bounces off his palms.
29.4 Clark to Lara, no run, pulled to short midwicket
29.3 Clark to Lara, FOUR, this time he makes room and comes down the pitch and drives powerfully past mid-on for four more
29.2 Clark to Lara, FOUR, oh my, an inside edge goes past the stumps and beats Haddin as well as it runs down to the fence. Lara tried to smash that down the ground but got in all sorts of trouble
29.2 Clark to Gayle, 2 wides, sprays it wide down le
g side, Haddin fumbles the take and the batsmen cash in, wide called
29.1 Clark to Gayle, SIX, whack! Clark tosses up an easy full toss and Gayle bludgeons it back over his head for six
He's 31 in 10 days, fricken drop him. He's not the future.

Fuck! yea, piss him off...
I missed the 2nd innings, but at least Hussey had a good bat. Lee had 'reasonable' bowling figures...i guess
We only have to beat India on Friday to meet WI in the final. So we can afford to lose to them now in order to beat them in the final! .....It's a stupid logic, I know

From correspondents in London
September 19, 2006
ENGLAND spin bowler Monty Panesar has been consulting a sports psychologist to help him deal with the expected ribbing he will get from Australia fans in the upcoming Ashes series.
Panesar's ordinary fielding ability made him a figure of fun among some supporters during the English summer, and while he has improved that part of his game to ally his impressive off-spin bowling, he still expects some stick Down Under.
As a result he has been having meetings with England's team psychologist Steve Bull to fortify him against the raspberries.
"I'll try to use it as a positive energy. You expect the worst," Panesar said in London-based tabloid The Sun.
"I've prepared for the worst-case scenario but it could be even worse than that.
"If you expect the worst and it's even worse than you imagined - well at least you are not going to be too surprised by it."
Former England off spinner Phil Tufnell received plenty of abuse from Australia fans for his own limitations in the field on past Ashes tours, and Panesar will also discuss it with him.
"I'll speak to Phil about how Australia was for him. I'm sure that will be valuable," Panesar said.

MARK Boucher blasted a 44-ball century as South Africa went on a scoring spree to beat Zimbabwe by 171 runs in the third and final one-day international today (AEST).
Boucher finished unbeatne with 147 off 68 balls as South Africa reached 5-418, only the fourth time 400 has been made in a one-day international – and the third time in four matches involving the Proteas.
South Africa restricted Zimbabwe to 4-247 in reply, completing a 3-0 series sweep
Boucher's century was the second-fastest of all time, behind Shahid Afridi's hundred off 37 balls for Pakistan against Sri Lanka in Nairobi in 1996.
