Pair Revive Australia - Australia 4/149

Captain Ricky Ponting and young superstar Michael Clarke have put on an unbeaten 53 run partnership to bring Australia back into the match with the score at 4/149. Ponting (66) and Clarke (21) have looked very confident at the crease and will look to build on with the innings stil at the half way point.

Wonderboy Slips Up - Australia 5/158

Young Australian batsman Michael Clarke fell for a stylish 24 with Australia sitting dangerously at 5/158. Although looking impressive against the bowling of Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan, Clarke eventually fell to Sreesanth who was returing after being hit around initially by Ricky Ponting.

This will put further pressure on Ricky Ponting and the hottest property in Australian cricket the current point in time with Michael Hussey joining his captain at the crease.

I'm predicting a 50 in 15-20 balls from Huss

Match falling India's way. Hussey needs a big knock for us.

Innings Hangs In The Balance - Australia 5/180 (30.0)

Ricky Ponting has continued his great innings to put Australia back into contention in the match with 5/180 from 30 overs. As per his usual game, Ponting has been aggressive when digging his team out of trouble, scoring 81 from 82 balls to almost single handedly stand up to the Indian attack. Michael Hussey has started his innings well with 11 from 10 balls.

In typical Australian fashion, although their backs are too the wall, the home side have still managed to score at 6 runs per over.



Projected Scores
Australia 5/180
5 per over = 280
6 per over = 300
7 per over = 320
8 per over = 340

As the above table shows, if this pair can remain at the crease the Australians still have the potential to post a very large score at the MCG.

Punter Cashes In - Australia 5/220

Australian Ricky Ponting finally received the rewards of his hard work as he reached his first one day century of the year to steer Australia to a stronger position at 5/220. Ponting brought up his stylish century off 108 balls which included 9 boundaries and 2 sixes.



Ponting has showcased the attacking nature of the Australian cricket team at the current point in time. Despite their backs being hard pressed against the wall, Ponting has continued to attack. Showing that sometimes attack is the best form of defence.
