18th Match: India V Australia: Mohali, India

Aussies win and from here i cant see anyone stopping them winning trophy.
 
And Marto hits the winning boundary. Well played Marto!

For mine, the game was won in the first 10 overs when Watson and Gilly blazed away and hammered the Indian pacers out of the attack. India never recovered and the OZ cruised from there.

Positives for the OZ:
- in the semis
- Ponting back into some semblance of form
- Marto looking in good touch
- better than expected bowling from Watson
- McGrath looking more fluent

Negatives:
- some scratchy bowling from Bracken
- some misfields giving away some runs to India

For India:
Positives:
- Sreesanth had great attitude
- Sehwag looked to have hit himself back in touch
- Dravid 50

Negatives:
- got blown away in the 1st 15 overs and never recovered
- didn't put enough runs on the board

Looking forward to the NZ-OZ and WI-SA semis.

Aus are NZ's archrivals. But NZ are not OZ's archrivals. :D
 
Congrats to the Aussies, a great victory. India fell short 25 runs in the end, good bowling right at the death by the Aussies.India bowled very poor in the 1st 15 overs which set up the Aussie victory, I'm very dissapointed, the last time India won a do or die game agaisnt the Aussies was way back in 2000, the last time they won Australia was way back in 2004, India had the game for the taking even in Australia but messed it up, poor pace bowling by the Indians in the 1st 15 overs, I am also dissapointed.
