T20I no. 92 | 2009 season
Played at Kennington Oval, London (neutral venue)
6 June 2009 (20-over match)


Australia innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
SR Watson	c Sarwan b Taylor	0	2	3	0	0	0.00
0.3 Taylor and Sars remove Watto. It was full and just outside off and Watson went for his drive. He couldn't clear Sarwan at mid-off, though. 1/1
DA Warner	c Benn b Bravo	63	71	53	6	1	118.86
15.3 another low dipping full toss outside off, Warner, again, lunged forward to drive but ended up slicing it to covers. A fine hand from him, though. 113/5
RT Ponting*	lbw b Taylor	0	1	1	0	0	0.00
0.4 Ponting is gone! Would you believe it? Two wickets in the over. What drama at The Oval. After couple of wides, Taylor got this one straight on the stumps. Ponting was on his typical forward lunge and couldn't get his bat around the front pad. Gone! Plumb in front. Dead duck. 3/2
MJ Clarke	c Benn b Edwards	2	13	7	0	0	28.57
3.3 Oh boy! the third wicket is down. What a start by the Windies. They might be fielding poorly but the bowling has been good. Clarke moved outside leg stump to go for the high-risk option of going over the off-side field. Fidel kicked it up from short of length and kept it just outside off, Clarke lunged out as he went for his cut. The edge flew straight to third man. 15/3
BJ Haddin†	c Benn b Pollard	24	31	19	2	1	126.31
11.3 Full and on the stumps, Haddin goes for the big swing but ends up hitting it straight up and Benn gets under it at midwicket. Haddin falls after a little cameo. 81/4
DJ Hussey	c Fletcher b Bravo	27	27	16	0	3	168.75
17.5 Low full toss and David swings it high over midwicket. Fletcher is some where there. But the ball seems to be landing safely but Fletcher charged ahead, lunged forward to take a diving catch. 143/6
MEK Hussey	not out	28	24	15	3	1	186.66

MG Johnson	c Bravo b Edwards	9	3	7	1	0	128.57
19.1 Mitch holes out at long-on. He went for the big six over long-on but couldn't clear Bravo. 153/7
B Lee	not out	1	3	1	0	0	100.00

Extras	(b 1, lb 5, w 7, nb 2)	15

Total	(7 wickets; 20 overs)	169	(8.45 runs per over)

West Indies innings (target: 170 runs from 20 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
CH Gayle*	c Watson b Lee	88	75	50	6	6	176.00
14.3 And Gayle's fabuliciously violent innings comes to an end. He has a laugh with Lee as he walks back. The crowd are up on their feet. Respect. He went for another big six but hit it skywards ... high .. very high ... but Watson ran in from long-on to steady himself under the ball ... 157/2
ADS Fletcher	c DJ Hussey b Johnson	53	63	32	7	1	165.62
11.3 But he is gone now. He went for the pull from outside off but the ball bounced more and ballooned up close on the off side for a simple catch. What a fine innings from Fletcher. He started the assault before Gayle took over 133/1
XM Marshall	c Hopes b Johnson	8	15	12	0	0	66.66
15.3 Xavier chips to mid-off and takes the long walk back to the hutch. Hopes back pedaled before leaping behind to hold on to a sharp catch. 162/3
