Australia out of ICC World T20!
June 8th 2009 19:50
Australia has crashed out of the ICC World T20, by losing their second successive game in the tournament!
Sri Lanka beat the Aussies with an over to spare after the Australians had scored 159 in their twenty overs.
With this win, Sri Lanka has entered the second round of the tournament, and will be joined by South Africa, Ireland and one team from Pakistan or Holland!
It was quite clear from the beginning of the game that the Australians had been out-thought; including their strategy to continue having Brad Haddin at the top of the order, instead of allowing David Hussey up the order.
Australia need to do some serious thinking on how they approach their T20Is; probably even a change in the captaincy for this format of the game.
