Match State: Match start scheduled for 14.30 AEDT (03.30 GMT)
a mixed day so far in melbourne the nylex tower gave the
temperature as 18C when I came in and since this morning we've
alternated some darkish cloud with long patches of sunshine. It
has not rained at all this morning but there was some decent rain
late last night into the early hours of this morning, we look to be
playing on the same wicket as used for the previous game which was
also used for the previous ING match last sunday
Althoguht criticised for its bounce, both wickets were not played
well by batsmen and with a lightening outfield are good wickets
for high scoring cricket
Australia won the toss and elected to bat first, making 4 changes
to the side
Out are Mark Waugh, Harvey, the injured Williams and the suspended
McGrath
In come Hayden, Symonds, Bichel and Gillespie
the milo kids rush off as the australian batsmen set themselves up
