well lets c what happens...know 9.4 52/1

Hayden 1 off 19 deliveries...Ponting seven from eight

6.1 Powell to Ponting, no run, short of a length outside off stump, he gets behind it and defends to the off side

6.2 Powell to Ponting, no run, good length on off stump and he drives superbly back down the ground, too well timed and the ball ricochets onto the nonstrikers stumps

6.3 Powell to Ponting, no run, back of a length on middle and off, he shuffles and works it to the on side

6.4 Powell to Ponting, 2 runs, back of a length, moves in from outside off stump and Ponting has to hurry to work it off the hips in front of square for runs

6.5 Powell to Ponting, no run, good length on middle and off, thats a confident on drive but straight to mid-on

6.6 Powell to Ponting, SIX, bang, thats six! Powell decides to bounce him but the lack of carry does him in, Ponting just swivels on one foot and hooks it over deep backward square leg for half a dozen! Shot!

End of over 7 (8 runs) - Australia 31/1 (RR: 4.42)

RT Ponting 15* (14b 1x6) DB Powell 4-2-10-1
ML Hayden 1* (19b) JE Taylor 3-0-16-0

loll. which is your favorite team for this wc?

i believe to win a cricket match, you need team support and that why aussies have been winning so often because they play as a team. I hope other teams could learn something from aussies.

Yeah they take the game seriously

7.1 Taylor to Hayden, no run, overpitched outside off stump, the slower ball, Hayden drives to cover

7.2 Taylor to Hayden, FOUR, more width on offer and Hayden gets onto one knee and flashes a firm drive in the gap between cover and mid-off, albeit in the air for a seconds, and picks up his first four

7.3 Taylor to Hayden, FOUR, and again! Hayden receives a slower ball, too full outside off stump, and drives it smack in that same gap for another boundary

7.4 Taylor to Hayden, 1 run, back of a length outside off stump, Hayden waits for it and plays with soft hands, tapping it in front of point for a quick single

7.5 Taylor to Ponting, no run, slower one, striving for the yorker outside off stump, well done and Ponting defends it back to the bowler

7.6 Taylor to Ponting, no run, good length outside off stump, he gets forward but mistimes the attempted cover drive, chopping into the ground in front of point

End of over 8 (9 runs) - Australia 40/1 (RR: 5.00)

RT Ponting 15* (16b 1x6) JE Taylor 4-0-25-0
ML Hayden 10* (23b 2x4) DB Powell 4-2-10-1

8.1 Powell to Hayden, no run, good length outside off stump, Hayden leans into his drive but cant beat Samuels in the covers

8.2 Powell to Hayden, no run, short of a length outside off stump, he mistimes his cut to point

8.3 Powell to Hayden, 3 runs, too full outside off stump and Hayden square-drives that past point for a couple

8.4 Powell to Ponting, no run, good length outside off stump, driven to cover

8.5 Powell to Ponting, 1 run, short of a length and coming in from outside off stump, Ponting uses soft hands to drop it in front of the off side fielders and steals a single

8.6 Powell to Hayden, FOUR, oh ho! Now Hayden, already standing outside his crease, walks down the track and hammers a good length delivery back over Powell's head for four! Thats arrogance!

This virgin pitch looks to be a good, hard batting track.

End of over 9 (8 runs) - Australia 48/1 (RR: 5.33)

ML Hayden 17* (27b 3x4) DB Powell 5-2-18-1
RT Ponting 16* (18b 1x6) JE Taylor 4-0-25-0

Here's Corey Collymore for a bowl

9.1 Collymore to Ponting, no run, slower one smack on the money just outside off stump, a hint of movement away from Ponting, who covers his stumps and holds back the bat

9.2 Collymore to Ponting, no run, madness! Good length on the stumps, Ponting gets over it and drives in front of mid-on and sets off, Hayden stands unmoved and sends him back, Pontings halfway down the track, turns and sprints back to his end and manages to beat the throw

9.3 Collymore to Ponting, no run, full and wide, he gets down on bended knee and crunches a powerful square drive but a superb effort at point saves four runs, great stuff from Bravo

9.4 Collymore to Ponting, no run, good length on off stump, defended back

9.5 Collymore to Ponting, FOUR, good length outside off stump, Ponting plants the front leg down the track and short-arm punches that in the over just wide of mid-off for four

9.6 Collymore to Ponting, FOUR, sublime! Too full on off stump, Ponting gets well over it and just effortlessly flicks it over square leg for four

End of over 10 (8 runs) - Australia 56/1 (RR: 5.60)
