Match State: Match start scheduled for 9.35am local time (13.35 GMT)
Hello and Welcome to Wisden CricInfo's live coverage of the sixth
One Day International between West Indies and Australia being
played at St George's, Grenada.
Finally after 21 consecutive wins Australia lost a match (fifth
ODI), it was brought about by some splendid batting from the West
Indian batsmen
West Indies won the toss and made an imposing 290 for 5, thanks to
an enterprising second-wicket partnership of 178 between Brian
Lara (80) and Wavell Hinds (79).
Australia lost early wickets in reply and never came close, despite
a classy 77 from Andrew Symonds.
Eventhough the series has been sealed, both the teams can't afford
to take this match lightly
Australia will be keen to prove that the last match was just a bad
day and on the other hand West Indians will be out in force to
prove that their win was not a fluke
The loss was a wake-up call for us", "If you don't play at your
best then you can be beaten and that's what happened. We've had a
few days off before Friday's game so we've had plenty of time to
freshen up and make sure we're a better team.
is how the Australian captain put it
Brian Lara is back in form and that is what you want if you are a
West Indian cricket fan
Another worry for Australia will be the condition of Brett Lee, he
ended up with concussion after being hit on the back of the neck
by a stray ball from Jimmy Maher but hopefully he will be playing
today
In addition to Lee, Michael Bevan and Glenn McGrath, both of whom
suffered groin strains are also not fully fit
West Indies's only injury worry is the offspinner Ryan Hurley, who
damaged his shoulder taking a spectacular catch during the fifth
ODI
A mix of clouds and sun with gusty winds. High 89F. Winds E at 15
to 25 mph is the weather forecast for today.
News from the middle is that Ricky Ponting has won the toss and
elected to bat first

what a match it turned out to be
earlier in the day, Ponting won the toss and elected to bat first
the Australian openers started off brilliantly, particularly
Gilchrist (64) was severe on the bowlers, he dispatched them to
all the parts of the park and at one stage they were 90 for 1
then Lara bravely turned to his spinners and the runs started to
dry out and wickets started to fall
In the middle Lehmann played a decent innings (43), and towards the
end Bichel (41) played some healthy blows and Australia ended up
with 252
Gayle was the pick of the bowlers, he took three wickets, Samuels
and Collymore ended up with two each and Sarwan picked up the
important wicket of Symonds
the run chase started off well with Gayle and Hinds but soon Gayle
fell and that was followed by the soft dismissal of Lara
then Sarwan and Hinds came together and put up 114 runs parthership
for the third wicket and that laid the platform for victory
Hinds went on to make his 2nd One Day International hundred
and Sarwan got to yet another half century
and towards the end some wayward bowling and some pretty good
running between the wickets helped West Indies reach the target
with 8 balls remaining
we hope you have enjoyed the coverage of this match, we will be
