Second Innings Batting : India Bowling : Australia
World Champions India beat Australia by 7 wickets with 11 balls to spare. Australian batsmen looked ordinary in front of Indian batting except the knock from Ponting. Sehwag disappointed once again getting out cheaply. But a solid knock by Gambhir ensured India a win. Uthappa and Yuvraj played responsible innings. Australia never looked in the game right from the start. India never looked in trouble throughout the run chase. Dhoni ended the game with a huge six off Brett Lee. India went in the game with a never say die attitude and came out victorious. T20 giants India made Australia look tiny in front of home crowd. Gambhir pocketed the Man of the Match award for his terrific knock. Thank you for being with us throughout the live coverage of the match.
