End of a comprehensive win by Australia . The Aussies have now registered two fantastic wins in this World Cup India on the other hand have had a terrible run The Man of the Match has got to be Jason Gillespie who bowled a fiery spell earlier on scalping 3 wickets for just 13 runs The Indian batsmen all threw away their wickets barring Tendulkar who played one or two pretty shots All in all though a clinical performance from the Aussies. The Indians were never in the game after the Australian fast bowlers destroyed the Indian top order We're just waiting for the official announcement of the Man of the Match award.
