Earlier today, Australia won (yet another) match in the Super 8 series - this time against England. Honestly, we thought it was going to be a much closer match. But the damn Aussies seem invincible! Ponting scored a solid 86 and Clarke stuck it out with 55*. I expected McGrath to be more of a force against England, but it was Shaun Tait whose mojo brought England down. Ponting's strategy was a stroke of genius - he delayed the final power play to the 27th over and soon the wickets came tumbling down!
Too bad that Pietersen's 104 didn't cut it for England. And I was a little disappointed that it was Roy who scored the 4 that clinched the match (typical flamboyance :) ) and not Clarke who was the steady bat all the way through.
P.S.: I have to agree with Bobbie: "Roy *so* looked like he had a hangover!" :)
