Twenty 20 World Series

Australia V England
at Perth

Gilchrist first man to reach 50:

Adam Gilchrist has become the first man to reach 50 in the match as he ran one to fine leg for two runs. Him and Ponting have taken the score onto 100/1 and will be looking to accelerate in the final 8 overs to try and score the 112 required. England's bowlers have not performed well in this match and will be looking to get better in the match against Pakistan in 2 days. England should still be favourites to win the match, however, Australia must accelarate to get to the target - so will they?

Australia 100/1; req. 112 runs to win

Australia struggle to get the runs whilst losing Ponting:

Australia have made just 19 in two overs, leaving six and a half overs for them to get 93 from 39 balls! They have lost Ricky Ponting for 20 after Ian Blackwell bowled him. But for the Australians, its not the wickets that are the problems - its the runs! They will struggle to pull this match off and if they do they should go on and win the tournament!

Australia 119/2 (req. 93 from 39 balls)

England sniff victory as powerhouse Gilchrist is bowled:

Adam Glichrist - Australia's hope of winning the match - has been bowled out by a great delivery from Ian Blackwell, who has bowled very well today. He smashes a few fours and a couple of sixes in his 41 ball 76! However, with Michael Clarke and Brad Hodge at the crease, anything could still happen - inlcuding an Australian victory. Australia now 3 down.

Australia 142/3

All results possible as Clarke is out:

Michael Clarke was caught out in the deep by Andrew Flintoff, trying to hit a four to bring Australia close to the target! With 9 balls left, Australia require 27! This match can go any way and is going to go right down to the wire - dont miss the action! So, who will win, England or Australia - or will it be a tie?

Australia 185/4
require 27 from 9 at 3 runs per ball!

Hodge out with one ball left:

Brad Hodge has been LBW with just 1 ball remaining of the match! Australia require just 3 runs off of that ball, will they get there? Andrew Symonds has come into bat - its all down to him - no defesive tail play. He will have to go all out attack if Australia are to win!

Australia 209/5
require 3 off 1 ball
