Note: It has been a long long wait. Almost 4 years. Over 11 matches. But finally India have done it. The T20 World Champions have beaten the ODI World Champions by 8 runs in a nail-biter, reminiscent of their semi-final clash in the Twenty20 World Cup. India needed to win this match and the series has now come alive. After a complete domination in the first 3 matches (the first one was washed out), Australia finally were challenged and they succumbed. It goes to show that any team can be defeated if the right pressure is applied.
India one the toss and MS had no hesitation in batting first. In the previous couple of matches the Aussies had made first use of the pitch. Dhoni ensured that this time his batsmen would get the first opportunity to bat. India had the tried and tested opening pair of Tendulkar and Ganguly to start proceedings. After the recent statement by Dilip Vengsarkar, the two had to get some runs and get India a good opening start. They did that by putting on 92 for the first wicket in 19 overs before Ganguly was the first to depart on 41 from 56 balls. tags: india

Note: Their high-flying balloon of Twenty20 success pricked by Australia's back-to-back wins, India go into the fourth cricket one-dayer faced with the herculean task of winning four matches in a row to clinch the series.
The task at hands seems all the more difficult with the Indians failing to get big partnerships and the bowlers lacking sting and direction against the formidable Australian who have piled on over 900 runs in three matches so far. tags: india

Note: Of course, "Halo 3" had the biggest first-day sales of any video game in history. The thing was practically unavoidable; you could even buy it at 7-Eleven.
If "Halo 3" hadn't done boffo numbers, Microsoft executives would have been hung by their joystick thumbs and the Xbox 360 would be pretty much dead.
Instead, Bill Gates' minions were crowing over $170 million in sales on day one, $300 million after the first week, and calling it "the biggest entertainment launch in history." tags: microsoft
