The Aussies defeated Pakistan by 34 runs in their firsts match of the Twenty20 World Cup. Watson clubbed 81 off 49 balls while David Hussey scored 53 of 29. Nannes and Tait both claimed 3 wickets each off their 4 overs.

Nice start to the comp….. but …errrr ….. still can’t shake the feeling that Twenty20 is not the best format of the game for judging a quality cricket team.
