shoulder high no ball, normally it's an anti climax to win a match with a no ball, but on this occasion it proves very apt

Full commentary
Australia win the match by 6 wickets, and advance to the Super Six
West Indies will have to wait and see what degree of flogging New Zealand can give the Scotties tomorrow
pretty tedious effort from Australia, but it was all to their advantage and all within the rules
don't be surprised if some pathetic reprimand is issued for "unsportsmanslike conduct" by the people who invented the rules
Presentations... Waugh attempts a joke about the slow batting, noone laughs, then comes clean and explains the situation honestly
Lara: "At teh end of the day we were disappointing today"
Man of the Match is Glenn McGrath, he's wearing the compulsory "Fly Emirates" hat
hard to bring any quotes sorry, the audio has been consistently awful at all these matches
so tomorrow matches are NZ v Scot and Pak v Bdesh, last of the tinpot team games, both scheduled to begin at 0945 GMT
