Australia vs World XI, 3rd ODI

Match Report | Scorecard

Australia's innings was not as explosive as on Friday, when they scored 328 for four.

Adam Gilchrist continued his return to his belligerent best, scoring 32 off 31 balls, inclusive of two boundaries and a six, before he mistimed a pull off Shaun Pollock.

Captain Ricky Ponting (in pic) then combined with Damien Martyn in an edgy 85-run partnership that was punctuated with tentativeness in the running.

Ponting, who was dropped on 41 by Flintoff, then scored his 47th one-day international half century before he was caught by Brian Lara off Muttiah Muralitharan for 68.
