After Australia's good win against Ireland, they were trying to get a second win over the West Indies. Australia struck early bowling Smith halfway through the second over. Gayle and Samuels got 4 sixes and a 50 each. The West Indies kept the run rate up to achieve a respectable total of 8 for 191
Australia came in to bat. Warner and Watson blitzed the ball in all directions collecting 30 runs in 2 overs. Warner fell to big bash teammate Fidel Edwards for 28 off 14 balls. Watson and Hussey capitalised until after 9 overs, the clouds weren't in the mood for cricket, it rained and the rain didn't go. Australia got 100 for 1 after 9 overs. Australia won by 17 runs D/L method.
That means Australia goes to the super 8's finals.
Man of the Match was Shane Watson for 2 wickets and 41 runs including 3 sixes.
