Big Game tonight. (http://aus.cricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/CRICKET_NEWS/2004/SEP/044716_ICCCT2004_12SEP2004.html)
I'm predicting a close battle.

Finished in just 36 overs... The Aussies bowled out the US for 65 in 24 overs, needing just 43 balls to finish the game. Lee hit the stumps on the second ball of the day. Extras was the second highest score for the US and fourth highest in the match.

"We understand why these countries are in these competitions. We'd really like to see smaller countries like the US develop the game over there. (emphasis mine)
best quote evar!

Lee hit the stumps on the second ball of the day.Too bad that after his first 3 balls he stopped bowling well and resumed his standard lazy tactic of trying to impress the batsmen into submission with fast-paced, short pitched deliveries and was in the process of getting owned accordingly by Steve Massiah until he was taken out of the attack. In a way it's a shame Kasprowicz and Gillespie replaced the unthreatening pair of Brett Lee & Glen McGrath when they did, cause it was fun watching Brett Lee getting smacked around the park.
