Nothing much to write about... Australia won and very very comprehensively at that..

Nothing went right for India right from the start. Losing 2 wickets in the first over and never really recovering from that.. A target of 148 was never going to trouble the Aussies. It helped Adam Gilchrist get back in form. More ominous signs for India as they try to win the next two matches to level the series.

Its off to Nagpur now as India face a must-win situation yet again..
