Australia jump ahead of South Africa and now sit atop the ODI rankings list. I think these are going to be the two most likely teams to win the World Cup, especially given the pitches and conditions.

I am glad they won in the end, its good that they are ranked No 1 now. Tough luck for the proteas, they lost almost all the games in the last 10 overs.
Smith is in prime form though and it was good for the aussies that finally watson made some runs.

Apparently those in attendance for the final ODI saw more than they bargained for.
Quote:A streaker running out onto a cricket field is a sight to behold, an occurrence that’s quite uncommon in this day and age, so when a naked man ran across the out field during the Fifth and final ODI between Australia and South Africa at the SCG it was as though the clock was turned backward. According to the Daily Mail, the spectacle was timed to perfection, coinciding with Shane Watson celebrating a half century.
The drama on the field may have amused the crowd greatly but the security at the SCG didn’t take kindly to the streakers antics, as he was promptly chased down, handcuffed and will most likely have a heavy fine imposed on him as penalty, besides he may lose privileges of watching live cricket action at the SCG in future.
The individual in question has been summoned for a hearing, and the court will decide the extent of the fine for the streakers misdemeanours.
