Team India created history at the Gabba on Tuesday (March 4 2008) after it defeated Australia by 9 runs in the second finals of the cricket tri-series.
After scoring a competitive 258 for nine largely built around Sachin Tendulkar's majestic 91, the Indians held their nerves in the tense dying moments to stop the Australians at 249 with two balls to spare and wrap up the best-of-three finals with a 2-0 margin.
Praveen Kumar has been declared as the 'Man of the Match'.
Brief scores:
India: 258 for 9 in 50 overs (S Tendulkar 91, Yuvraj Singh 38, M.S. Dhoni 36; N Bracken 3/31 Michael Clarke 3/52)
Australia: 249 all out in 50 overs
Australia: 249 all out in 50 overs

Its not just India created history by defeating Australia in the CB series final, it's a matter of showing the world that Indians are more cultured individuals than the Australians.
1. The Australian media and the Autralian team made a lot of allegations against Indians to make Indians metally down, so that the team Australia can win. This is how they used to win in past.
Result: It didnt help the team Australia in any manner
2. The Australian team and Cricket Australia, with the help of the Umpire Steve Bucknor tried to defeat India in the Test Series
Result: With the help of Umpire Steve Bucknor Australia won the Test series 2-1. Otherwise the result will be 1-1. Even Kenya or Uganda can win Test Series with the help of a single umpire.
3. Unfortunately the team Australia didnt get the help of Umpire Steve Bucknor for the CB Series
Reslut: India won the CB Series. Australia cannot win a single match with their strengths (since they dont have any), and they can win a match only with the help of Umpires and media. Now they should realise that, it also wont help in future. Let them think of learning how to play cricket. I suggest India should help the Australians to learn playing cricket.
