MATCH REPORT
Australia had the first lucky break, winning the toss, and Ricky Ponting (The Captain) choosing to field first. It was a good choice with both Glen McGrath and Jason Gilespie claiming both Pakistan's openers in the first two overs. But some big hitting from Yousef Youhana (43) and Inzamam-ul-Haq (21) brought the score from 2/11 to 2/62 and Pakistan were back in the game before both Inzamam and Yousef fell victim to the spinning deliveries of Stuart MacGill. From then on Pakistan crawled to 85 from 10.0 Overs losing 8/23 in the last 4 overs of the innings. Ian Harvey Claimed four of those wickets while Shane Warne claimed two.
Australia needed 86 runs from 10 overs at a run rate of 8.6, and from the very first ball Matthew Hayden showed their intent hitting the overpitched ball over mid on for a boundary. Umar Gul the young Fast bowler from Peshawar claimed the vital scalp of Hayden for 11 and Australia were suddenly 1/19. But the newly appointed opening batsman for this match, Ricky Ponting, took control of the game hitting Australia to victory with 22 off the second over. He finally fell for 52 off 19 deliveries. Enter Michael Clarke, the first 2 deliveries he faced he dispatched for boundaries, and Australia sailed home after 6.2 overs at a run rate of 13.77 runs per over.
