We did our annual trek to the Gabba to see Australia play the West Indies in a one day international. The crowd was disappointing....I think that the extreme heat and the introduction and popularity of 20-20 cricket, not to mention the Valentine's Day date weren't helping! The game was a lot of fun though and yes, we won!Ricky Ponting plays at the crease and goes on to make a century:
