West Indies v India

Virender Sehwag smashed the highest score of the tournament so far with a huge 288 falling a few runs short of his triple ton and Chris Gayle hit a big ton joined by Sarwan though was Sehwag's phenominal effort enough to grab India the win?

Sri Lanka v New Zealand

Mahela Jayawardene continued a day of high scores as he smashed 186 to guide Sri Lanka to an easy win.

England v Pakistan

Andrew Flintoff finally hit his first century after 38 tests but it wasn't equal to Mohammad Yousuf's efforts who smashed another century this series.

Australia v New Zealand

Last time these two teams played each other,New Zealand won in a massive upset and the same was done again today lead by a unbeaten 99* from Stephen Fleming.

England v Sri Lanka

England's openers Strauss & Trescothick both posted fifties to give England a pretty big lead but they where bamboozled by Murali who took 8-179 in the first innings and match figures of 11-320.Nuwan Zoysa managed 6-87 in the 2nd innings destroying the english in the chase Mahela Jayawardene scored a century was it enough to grab the all important 5 points?

India v South Africa

Graeme Smith smashed a big double hundred with a helping hand from AB de Villiers who hit 92.In reply Irfan Pathan returned to test cricket with a quickfire 43 from 44 balls top scoring for India.The follow on was enforced and this time they did much better with Dhoni smashing his first century of the tournament and boy was it big!

West Indies v Pakistan

In a run feast Kamran Akmal cracked 67 under pressure to save Pakistan from what would have been a embarrising first innings total putting on 72 for the 9th wicket with Shoaib Ahktar.Quickie Jerome Taylor took 3-31 off 15 overs.Dwayne Bravo smashed 90 & 124 but the match panned out as a draw.
