Australia hitting form

Australia may have already qualified for the final of the VB Series but they still took the chance to score some psychological points over South Africa - their likely final opponents - y crushing them on Friday. And the hosts are 4/11 (1.36) to repeat the feat when the two sides meet again on Sunday.

Not even the late loss of Glenn McGrath for personal reasons upset the rhythm of the team and Australia will be keen not to let South Arica get any kind of mental edge ahead of the final.

If they lose Sunday's match, South Africa will have to beat Sri Lanka in the last group match to make the final, but bet365 make them 2/1 (3.00) to upset the hosts.

Of course, South Africa have already beaten Australia once in the Series but the Aussies have won 67 of their 100 one-day internationals at the SCG - where Sunday's match will be played - and beaten South Africa in six of their eight matches there.
