46.3 to Clarke, Malinga gets a wicket, finally, a slower one again and Clarke, looking to go over midwicket this time, mistimed the attempted pull and Jayawardene took a well-judged catch running to his right from midwicket 288/5

23.6 to Wade, An outstanding catch by Herath, for a moment it seemed Wade had struck it cleanly to send it over the ropes but it wasn't timed as well as initially thought, Herath was at long-on and Wade had enough on it to get it past him as he was standing a few yards inside the ropes, Herath though kept his eyes on the ball throughout, back-pedalled a few steps, stuck out one hand and snapped it while falling back, he made sure he caught it clean with his feet well inside the ropes, a stunning effort to bring an end to a superb opening stand 136/1

34.2 to Watson, Watson goes, it's been a quiet Powerplay so far, that landed on leg stump, was a slower ball, tried to flick it square but ended up playing uppishly and it appeared to come off the top edge as well, Thirimanne ran in from deep square leg and took a safe catch 186/2

38.4 to Christian, Christian goes! Reiffel upholds the appeal, bowled on a good length and it nipped back in, Christian walked into the shot, got a faint inside edge and Sangakkara dived to his left to take a good low catch 223/3

49.6 to Warner, bowled'im! Was the offcutter, landed on leg and cut away as he tried to pull that over midwicket, missed and the stumps were pegged back 321/6

39.1 to DJ Hussey, David Hussey's gone! Tossed up and Hussey was drawn into playing the drive, a soft dismissal in the end, pushes it straight back to the bowler who takes it sharply, timing his jump well 224/4

4.4 to Jayawardene, Mahela has to go, couldn't resist fishing for a good length ball outside off that moved away, was trying to glide it to third man, got a thin edge and Wade took an easy catch 39/1

6.6 to Dilshan, bowled'im! Slightly wide of the crease and got it to angle in, nipped back in further as Dilshan tried to drive it through the line, it beat him through the fate and pegged back middle stump, Lee's seen off the openers 52/2

21.3 to Sangakkara, Under pressure to step up the scoring, Sangakkra loses his wicket, was on a good length and he stood his ground and tried to clear mid-off, mistimed it completely and Watson at mid-off took a dolly 115/4

45.5 to Tharanga, Tharanga goes! Is that the decisive blow? Pitched on a length and he had to go for it, strikes it well but not enough in it to take it over the ropes, David Hussey at long-on holds his nerve and takes a comfortable catch 285/8

47.4 to Herath, Watson has struck, Herath is dismissed as he goes for his favourite slog shot, a length delivery is struck well by Herath, but Doherty had cleverly been placed well short of the rope, it ends up as a simple catch, only one wicket in hand now, Malinga was off-colour with the ball can he redeem himself with the bat? 301/9

49.2 to Malinga, Another slower one, Malinga swings it high but not far enough and finds deep square leg where Michael Hussey judges it well, Australia win the first final. Struck that really high did Malinga, didn't get hold but he had no choice but to go for it. Clarke heaves a sigh of relief, his team was given a real scare 306/10

16.1 to Chandimal, strikes immediately! Short outside off, Chandimal moves away to cut that uppishly, straight into the hands of Pattinson at point, good bounce for Hussey there 93/3

26.1 to Thirimanne, Thirimanne's nicked it, Hussey strikes again, came round the wicket and tossed it up outside off, landed on a good length and Thirimanne went for the drive, it spun away and took a thin outside edge, Wade made no mistake 125/5

30.1 to Maharoof, David Hussey's having a wonderful time with the ball, Maharoof came down the track again to a flighted ball but couldn't get the elevation he wanted as he tried to clear midwicket, Dan Christian took a comfortable catch 144/6

41.4 to Kulasekara, Kula has to go back, Hussey takes four, just chipped at that one loosely, straight to extra cover who is at the edge of the circle 248/7
