Turbanator gone.
37.2 Hogg to Harbhajan Singh, OUT: tossed up and outside the off, sharp
spin in to the pads of Harbhajan Singh, played at and missed,
great ball this, too good for Harbhajan singh, trapped plumb in
front

India 125 all out :bhangra:
India’s lowest total in a world cup match
a much-expected result....
once again, as against netherlands, the indian batsmen fail to score, except tendlia who manages to get some runs....
india look to be in a very poor form....

What a pathetic game.. im going to sleep!
My prayers are with Naimbia now to beat Australia (last hope!)
An awful display of batting by India.
hmmmm, its high time media realizes that Indians are not as best a batting line up as they insist them to be...
Pathetic Pathetic Pathetic.......
Its the only way one can describe Indian.
These heros of dead wickets are just pathetic.
This was a wicket of 280 runs and they scored ****..........
They cant even beat Namibia and Bangladesh.......
very lousy and shamefull performance by Indian batsmen...
I didnt think they will win but this kinda loss is really shameful...
Shame shame shame..
Australia 100/0 off 17 overs. A rout in progress.
Australia 100/1.
Gilchrist out, stumped Dravid bowled Kumble.
**Australia win.
128/1 off 22.2 overs.
Absolutely demolished India.**
AUSTRALIA ROMP HOME BY NINE WICKETS
Chasing 126 was never going to be Australia’s biggest challenge in recent times, and once Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden dominated India’s bowlers to the tune of a 100-run opening partnership, India were comprehensively out of the contest.
Gilchrist hit 48 off 61 balls with six fours, and his was the only wicket to fall, stumped by Rahul Dravid after stepping out to an Anil Kumble delivery outside the off stump. His innings was typical “Gilly” - cover drives, hard running, fierce cuts and hard-hit pulls.
Matthew Hayden faced only 49 balls for his 45, remaining unbeaten. He hit only one four, but his two sixes - a straight one off Srinath and an even bigger one over midwicket off Harbhajan - will remain in the Centurion spectator’s memory for long.
Ricky Ponting came in at the fall of Gilchrist’s wicket and hurried into 24 runs off as many balls, making all but two of the runs remaining for a win. Australia romped home in 22.2 overs.

I don't think India can make the Super Sixes. They were absolutely crushed today. At least in our match against the Aussies we had them on the ropes for a while, but India were never in this. A total annihilation of a team which looks dispirited.
Let me call my Indian friends ![]()
p.s: I always wanted to use this smili!!!

Me too ![]()
Woooohooo, congratulations to India :biggthumb
Now, India makes 204 against the worst team and 125 against the best. So, we can rest assured India's score from now on will be somewhere between these two.
Ganguly has said it for the second time in a week that we need to put our socks on. Why have they been playing without socks so far?.
Great result for us anyway
Our chances of qualifying took a big booster with this one :k:
