Australia thumped, actually no, annihilated New Zealand by a small matter of 215 runs to complete their Super 8's with a clean slate. It was the most brutal of thrashings you will ever witness. Thrashing minnows or 2nd rung test teams like Eng, WI or India is one thing, but this effort to dismiss NZ - a world cup favorite, was special.
Match home
What's with Matthew Hayden? This time 12 months back, he wasn't even part of the ODI set-up. Today he blasted his 3rd 100 of the WC and 5th in his last 11 matches. Stunning.
NZ and SL might have thought by resting their key bowlers, they could surprise Australia in the finals, but on today's evidence they will probably need a gun.

Well done Australia. You are now 2 steps away from an unprecedented 3rd World cup. At times such as this, I wish I was born in Sydney instead of Ahmedabad. Just what will it take to stop these awesome folks?
