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.
