this is going to be great. I bet that India will win here.

 

[ScottyEvil]

Good job. This should be an awesome series!
Don't want to be picky or nething, but it doesnt say anywhere whether it is test or one day series!
I assume one-dayers...because of the ten overs left thing

 

[ScottyEvil]

I take it back. I re-read, and I found that its 50 over matches. Good luck, and go Aussie.
