The T20 World Cup is in full swing and it is no surprise to see Australia rising to the occasion. A 49-run win over India in Barbados confirmed that the Aussies have finally cracked this format of the game.
Much had been made of India's powerful batting line-up but, after David Warner's 72 sparked a total of 184-5, the Australian attacked ripped the Indians to shreds.
Dirk Nannes and Shaun Tait bagged three wickets apiece as India slumped to 42-6 and then 135 all out.
While the Aussies are playing impressive cricket, they are not the only side excelling in the Caribbean. Michael Clarke and company will face stern opposition from South Africa, Sri Lanka and perhaps even England, who earned a big win over Pakistan on Thursday courtesy of a timely half century from Kevin Pietersen.
