The Australian cricket team were faced up against the Indian cricket team in last night’s 5th ODI of the 7 match series. And it turned out to be a great night for Australian cricket fans, but a disappointing one for Indian cricket fans.
After the toss, the Australian team decided to bat and there was some great batting from Shane Watson, Shaun Marsh and Ricky Ponting. Marsh came on after Shane Watson and managed to hit the bowling line hard.
Then it was the Indian batsmen turn to take to the field. Tendulkar and Sehwag appeared to start quite aggressively. Sehwag made 38 runs, with help of four boundaries and one six. At one stage it looked like India had the match.
The Indian cricket team just needed four runs in just 6 balls with no wicket left behind. In the first ball they took one single. On the next ball, an attempt at taking a double one player ran out on a throw and Australia won.
