Tournament Summary

Twenty20 World Championship

Australia's 2007-08 season began with the 2007 Twenty20 World Championship in South Africa. Australia were placed in Group B and their first official match saw them take on Zimbabwe on September 12, 2007 in Cape Town.

To prepare for the tournament, Australia played two warm-up games against New Zealand and South Africa.[2]

Unofficial Warm-Up: v New Zealand, 8 September, Benoni

New Zealand 
8/182 (20 overs)
v
 Australia
6/187 (18.2 overs)
Craig McMillan 60 (29)
Ross Taylor 53 (39)
Ben Hilfenhaus 3/11 (3 overs)
Michael Hussey 72 (44)
Andrew Symonds 70 (43)
Shane Bond 3/26 (3.2 overs)
 Australia won by 4 wickets with 10 balls remaining[3]
Willowmoore Park, Benoni
Umpires: Ian Howell & Nigel Llong

Australia were sent in to bowl by New Zealand and early wickets by Ben Hilfenhaus and Brett Lee restricted New Zealand to 4/61 off 9.2 overs. Despite this, a strong of 67 partnership between Ross Taylor and Craig McMillan saw the Kiwis claw their way back. Nathan Bracken claimed the vital wicket of Taylor for 53 and Mitchell Johnson dismissed McMillan for 60 on the last ball of the innings restricting New Zealand to a chaseable 182. Hilfenhaus was the pick of the bowlers for Australia, taking 3/11 off his 3 overs. Nathan Bracken also played a vital role taking 2/34 off his 4 overs.

Australia's innings began poorly with Shane Bond taking the wickets of Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden within 4 deliveries. Brad Hodge was dismissed in the second over leaving Austrralia reeling at 3-15. A very strong partnership between Andrew Symonds and Michael Hussey rescued Australia, as they put on 113 for the fourth wicket. Despite their dismissals, this partnership was enough to see Australia cruise to victory with ten balls to spare. Hussey top scored for Australia scoring 72 off 44 balls, however Symonds was not far behind scoring 70 off 43 balls. [4]

Unofficial Warm-Up: v South Africa, 9 September, Centurion

Australia 
8/179 (20 overs)
v
 South Africa
2/183 (19.1 overs)
Andrew Symonds 45 (26)
Mitchell Johnson 30* (12)
Shaun Pollock 2/16 (3 overs)
Graeme Smith 89* (61)
AB de Villiers 65 (35)
Ben Hilfenhaus 1/24 (3 overs)
 South Africa won by 8 wickets with 5 balls remaining[5]
SuperSport Park, Centurion
Umpires: Asad Rauf & Tony Hill

Australia were sent in to bat by South Africa and were on the back foot early. In the third over of Australia's innings, Adam Gilchrist and Brad Haddin fell in successive balls to South African pace-bowler Shaun Pollock. Brad Hodge fell in the fourth and Australia were in trouble at 3/21 after 3.4 overs. Just as he did in the warm-up against New Zealand, Andrew Symonds steadied the ship scoring a strong 45 off 26 balls. Despite Symonds' resistance, South Africa continued to steadily take wickets, and only a late flurry of powerful hitting by tailender Mitchell Johnson propelled Australia to a healthy target of 8/179.

South Africa's innings got off to a flying start, and despite Ben Hilfenhaus continuing his good warm-up form by dismissing Herschelle Gibbs in the 6th over for 20, Graeme Smith and AB de Villiers put on a partnership of 116 runs which helped guide South Africa to an easy 8 wicket victory.[6]

Group B: v Zimbabwe, 12 September, Cape Town

Australia 
9/138 (20 overs)
v
 Zimbabwe
5/139 (19.5 overs)
Brad Hodge 35* (22)
Andrew Symonds 33 (25)
Elton Chigumbura 3/20 (3 overs)
Brendan Taylor 60* (45)
Hamilton Masakadza 27 (28)
Stuart Clark 2/22 (4 overs)
 Zimbabwe won by 5 wickets with 1 ball remaining[7]
Newlands Cricket Ground, Cape Town
Umpires: Asad Rauf & Tony Hill
Player of the match: Brendan Taylor

Australia got their new season off to a poor start, losing their first official match to Zimbabwe. After winning the toss and electing to bat, Australia were off to a shaky start as some tight and effective Zimbabwean bowling had them at 3/19 off 4 overs. Things never really picked up for the Australian batsmen, who appeared to be suffering from a lack of match practice. In slow conditions Brad Hodge did his best to attempt to steer the innings in the write direction, scoring 35 off 22. However regular wickets falling at the other end meant that Australia were restricted to 138 off their 20 overs.

Brendan Taylor was the hero for Zimbabwe, as he remained not out on 60 to see the Zimbabweans home to a memorable victory with only one ball remaining. It was a severe wake up call for a quite complacent Australia and in the post-match interview, captain Ricky Ponting explained that Australia have "got to start respecting [Twenty20] now".[8]

Group B: v England, 14 September, Cape Town

England 
135 (20 overs)
v
 Australia
2/136 (14.5 overs)
Andrew Flintoff 31 (19)
Kevin Pietersen 21 (20)
Nathan Bracken 3/16 (4 overs)
Matthew Hayden 67* (43)
Adam Gilchrist 45 (28)
Andrew Flintoff 1/25 (4 overs)
 Australia won by 8 wickets with 31 balls remaining[9]
Newlands Cricket Ground, Cape Town
Umpires: Asad Rauf & Tony Hill
Player of the match: Nathan Bracken

After their shock loss to Zimbabwe, Australia needed to beat England in order to progress through to the Super 8 stage of the tournament. England won the toss and their captain Paul Collingwood sent Australia in to field. The Australians put in a very disciplined performance with the ball, taking wickets at regular intervals and keeping the run rate low throughout the innings. Nathan Bracken and Mitchell Johnson each took 3 wickets, while Stuart Clark and Brett Lee took 2 and 1 respectively. Several of England's batsmen got starts, however failed to convert them with their top scorer being Andrew Flintoff, reaching 31.

Australia cruised to victory on the back of a 79 run opening partnership between Matthew Hayden and Adam Gilchrist. They reached the target within 15 overs and therefore successfully progressed to the Super 8 stage of the tournament.[10]

Australia finished first in Group B based upon net run-rate, and were placed in Group F for the Super 8 stage.[11]

 Australia 2 2 1 1 0 +0.987

Group F: v Bangladesh, 16 September, Cape Town

Shakib Al Hasan 0/15 (2 overs)
 Australia won by 9 wickets with 37 balls remaining[12]
Newlands Cricket Ground, Cape Town
Umpires: Asad Rauf & Tony Hill
Player of the match: Brett Lee

Australia's Super 8's campaign got off to an excellent start as they defeated Bangladesh comfortably in Cape Town. After winning the toss, Australian captain Ricky Ponting elected to field first. Australia bowled excellently, tying down the Bangladeshi batsmen, and only allowing them to score at 6 an over. Brett Lee took the first international Twenty20 hat-trick during this innings and finished with figures of 3/27. Bangladesh's innings never gained momentum and Australia restricted them to 123 off 20 overs.

Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden put on their first Twenty20 century partnership to help the Australians chase down the target of 124 comfortably with over 6 overs to spare.

Group F: v Pakistan, 18 September, Johannesburg

Australia 
7/164 (20 overs)
v
 Pakistan
4/165 (19.1 overs)
Michael Hussey 37 (25)
Brad Hodge 36 (29)
Sohail Tanvir 3/31 (4 overs)
Misbah-ul-Haq 66* (42)
Shoaib Malik 52* (38)
Stuart Clark 3/27 (4 overs)
 Pakistan won by 6 wickets with 5 balls remaining[13]
Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg
Umpires: Mark Benson & Nigel Llong
Player of the match: Misbah-ul-Haq

Australia's second Super 8's game was not as successful as their first. Sent in to bat, Australia struggled to find any momentum. While many Australian batsmen got starts, tight Pakistan bowling restricted their scoring chances. Michael Hussey top scored for Australia with 37, and at one point a total of 180 plus even looked possible for Australia. Effective bowling at the death however, restricted Australia to 7/164 off their 20 overs. During this innings, Australian captain Ricky Ponting received a hamstring strain and was ruled out of action for between two and four weeks.[14]

Pakistan's top order had struggled throughout the tournament, and this continued in their innings. Stuart Clark took 3 quick wickets to have Pakistan 4/46 after 6.4 overs. Despite this, an excellent 100 run partnership between Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik and Misbah-ul-Haq rescued Pakistan and guided them home with 5 balls to spare. This loss meant that Australia had to win their next Super 8's match against Sri Lanka in order to progress to the semi-finals.

Group F: v Sri Lanka, 20 September, Cape Town

Sri Lanka 
101 (19.3 overs)
v
 Australia
0/102 (10.2 overs)
Jehan Mubarak 28 (26)
Kumar Sangakkara 22 (23)
Stuart Clark 4/20 (4 overs)
Matthew Hayden 58* (38)
Adam Gilchrist 31* (25)
Dilhara Fernando 0/12 (3 overs)
 Australia won by 10 wickets with 58 balls remaining[15]
Newlands Cricket Ground, Cape Town
Umpires: Asad Rauf & Ian Howell
Player of the match: Stuart Clark

With the winner of this match going through to the semi-finals, it was virtually a knockout. Australia won the toss and stand in captain Adam Gilchrist elected to bowl first. This decision was justified as Australia demolised Sri Lanka's top order, having them 7/43 down after 10 overs. While Jehan Mubarak resisted, Sri Lanka were dismissed for a meagre 101 and needed a minor miracle to escape with a victory. Stuart Clark was the pick of the Australian bowlers taking 4/20, the best ever figures by an Australian in Twenty20 Internationals.

Openers Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden once again got the Australians off to a magnificent start, and guided them to a very comfortable 10 wicket victory, the first in Twenty20 International history. As a result of this match, Australia finished second in Group F, and therefore qualified for the semi-finals where they would meet India.[16]

Semi-Final: v India, 22 September, Durban

7/173 (20 overs)

 India won by 15 runs[17]
Kingsmead, Durban
Umpires: Asad Rauf & Mark Benson
Player of the match: Yuvraj Singh

The semi-final stage of the 2007 Twenty20 World Championship saw Australia knocked out by eventual winners India. The Indians won the toss and elected to bat, and after a steady start, an explosive innings by Yuvraj Singh coupled with a quickfire 36 by MS Dhoni saw the Indians reach a strong total of 188 from 20 overs on a batsman friendly Durban pitch. Mitchell Johnson was Australia's best bowler taking 2 wickets in his 4 over spell.

Facing a difficult task to progress to the final, Australia seemed on target to reach India's total after Matthew Hayden once again top scored for the Australians with 62 off 47 balls. It was in the later overs that Australia's chase was dismantled, as the wicket of Andrew Symonds seemed to give the Indians momentum. Australia managed 173 off their 20 overs, and thus India won by 15 runs and knocked Australia out of the tournament.
