That is the end of this game
A thoroughly professional display from the Australians here. Four more valuable points to the Australian kitty
After being set a target of 247 thanks to fine performances from Andy Blignaut and the Flower brothers the Australians took control. Gilchrist started things off with some good clean hitting. Hayden was not too far either and the Australian run rate was high. Ricky Ponting spent some time out in the middle without really being spectacular. Damien Martyn (50 not out) and Lehmann (56 not out) completed theformalities with some sensible batting
The Zimbabweans really had no answer to the cool, calculated approach of the Australians. The Zimbabweans hardly had the firepower to bowl out the Australians on a good wicket like this
With that we come to the end of the presentation of this game on CricInfo. We enjoyed bringing this to you. Please do send all your feedback to comms@cricinfo.com Till the next game, it's a very good evening to you all from the CricInfo team
