Cricket: Australia vs West Indies (DLF Cup)

Australia vs West Indies
DLF Cup - Malaysia

Date: 18 September, 2006

Michael Hussey, not even part of the squad that surrendered the Ashes a year ago, will lead Australia against West Indies tomorrow, with Ricky Ponting opting for a rest as the DLF Cup moves into its second week. Matthew Hayden, Andrew Symonds, and Brett Lee will also return as Australia look to ensure a place in next Sunday's final.

West Indies know that victory on Monday will push India closer to elimination, and Brian Lara was confident that his team had what it took to cause an upset.
Corey Collymore, who has a right thigh problem, remains doubtful for the game.

Keeping in mind the inclement weather conditions and the high possibility of rain in the evenings, the remaining matches, including Monday's, will start an hour early, at 1330 Malaysia time.

Australia (likely): 1 Matthew Hayden, 2 Shane Watson, 3 Damien Martyn, 4 Michael Clarke, 5 Andrew Symonds, 6 Michael Hussey (capt), 7 Brad Haddin (wk), 8 Brad Hogg, 9 Brett Lee, 10 Stuart Clark, 11 Glenn McGrath.

West Indies (likely): 1 Shivnarine Chanderpaul, 2 Chris Gayle, 3 Ramnaresh Sarwan, 4 Brian Lara (capt), 5 Dwayne Bravo, 6 Wavell Hinds, 7 Dwayne Bravo, 8 Carlton Baugh, 9 Ian Bradshaw, 10 Jerome Taylor, 11 Corey Collymore.

A great game, although i lost tons on it

Was pretty close in the end

Bets settled.

Windies did their usual circus act b4 pulling this one off...
They packed their side with batsmen...their keeper Baugh coming in at number 9...
Their startegy for worldcup is clear I guess.

man they almost made a mess of it these windies have a habit of doing this lol
lol lucky i didn't bet this time

but a grt result and a grt match.

ehh incidentally this also almost puts India out of the tournament.

^ Yes, a brave man would bet on India in the next match. And you are brave, so expecting to see you bet about 1k for each match.

And btw a little birdie told me that India is winning its next three encounters.

then dip i expect you will be putting all your money on India

i can make a bet india is coming back home now. I can't see them beating the aussies anyway. Windies not sure. they have a habit of comitting HaraKiri themselves.
