VB Series Game 11 : Australia v South Africa

Australia hit a record score of 6-344 in tonight's match against South Africa at the SCG, with Man of the Match Adam Gilchrist smashing 88 in 66 balls. He is back in form!

Australia's total was their highest against South Africa and the second-highest at the SCG in one-day internationals.

South Africa was never really in the race, as the graph below shows, however, their final score of 6-287 was the highest ever losing score at the SCG in one-day internationals.

Nice typo on the front page of the SMH this afternoon. It's even in the URL
