Australia vs England
Super 8, Match 11, AUS vs ENG: Australia beat England by 7 wickets
Apr 08, 2007
Australia cruised to comfortable seven-wicket win over England in Antigua despite a maiden World Cup century for Kevin Pietersen in Antigua.
Reported Earlier: The mighty Australians made sure that they would give England a hard time as they bundled the latter for the score of 247 runs in 49.5 overs. Englands batting order tumbled instantly as they lost one too many wickets while attaining the score of 247 runs.
Reported Earlier: In a key match that would decide Englands fate in the World Cup, England has won the toss and has elected to bat first. Michael Vaughan has confided in Andrew Strauss as the latter is included in the team.

Super 8, Match 11, AUS vs ENG: Australia ready to shatter England's hopes
Apr 08, 2007
Rampant Australia take on struggling England in the World Cup Super Eights on Sunday knowing a victory could severely damage their old rivals' chances of making the semi-finals.
The defending champions have won every game so far on their impressive march towards the last four while England have lost to New Zealand and Sri Lanka and looked unconvincing in wins over non-test playing nations Canada, Kenya and Ireland. A defeat for England would mean they would have to win their last three matches against Bangladesh, South Africa and hosts West Indies but also hope other results go their way.
One of the few positives England can take into the game is the memory of their victory over Australia in the tri-series earlier this year, where they won four games on the bounce to claim the title. England will also be enthused by the performance of Ravi Bopara and Paul Nixon in Wednesday's nailbiting two-run defeat by Sri Lanka. The duo put on 87 for the seventh wicket to pull England back into the game when all seemed lost.
Changes to the line-up are expected though with the so far ignored Andrew Strauss poised to come in for struggling opener Ed Joyce. Australia will make an alteration too, but only because of all-rounder Shane Watson's calf injury. Batsman Brad Hodge is likely to take his place. Australia team (from): R Ponting (Captain), M Hayden, A Gilchrist (Captain), M Clarke, A Symonds, B Hodge, M Hussey, B Hogg, N Bracken, G McGrath, S Tait, M Johnson, S Clark.
England team (from): M Vaughan (Captain), E Joyce, A Strauss, I Bell, K Pietersen, P Collingwood, A Flintoff, P Nixon (Wicket Keeper), R Bopara, S Mahmood, M Panesar, J Anderson, J Dalrymple, L Plunkett, S Broad.
