Live Cricket Score : India Vs Australia - CB Series (ODI No 7)


Daijiworld Media Network

Brisbane, Feb 19 : The CB series is poised at a very interesting stage. With Sri Lanka's victory against Australia at Sydney, the whole competition has been thrown open. The focus shifts to Brisbane where Australia take on India. This is a must win game for Australia to regain confidence as they have lost two consecutive games. For India, they have finally come back into form on this tour and they will look to continue their good run.

Pitch Report: Ravi Shastri reckons that it is a typical Gabba pitch. It is hard and firm, rock hard in fact. There is whitish tinge on this wicket and there is a sprinkling of grass. The conditions are humid and the ball will swing around. The team that wins the toss should bat first.

The big question for India is, who will be rested today? Sehwag is still not available and there are reports that Gautam Gambhir could be warming the bench as per the rotation policy.

The conditions are a bit cloudy and humid at the Gabba. This is a great venue for India in ODIs. In the last three completed ODIs, they have won all three.

Australia have won the toss and elected to bat

Dhoni: It is difficult to chase under lights at this venue. Zaheer Khan replaces Ashwin. Sehwag has not recovered from the back spasms.
 
Ponting: We will bat first. The conditions changed quickly at the SCG and we misread the pitch. It is not an easy ground to chase on. We have faced some tough conditions and we were not good enough. Clint McKay is ill and Hilfenhaus comes back in. It has been a long time since he played an ODI.

India (Playing XI): Gautam Gambhir, Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni(w/c), Ravindra Jadeja, Irfan Pathan, Vinay Kumar, Zaheer Khan, Umesh Yadav.

Australia (Playing XI): David Warner, Matthew Wade(w), Ricky Ponting(c), Peter Forrest, Michael Hussey, David Hussey, Daniel Christian, Brett Lee, Mitchell Starc, Ben Hilfenhaus, Xavier Doherty
