South Africa v Australia 1st ODI Durban

AUS v SA, 1st ODI, Durban: Australia beat South Africa by 141 runs (AUS 1:0)

Apr 03, 2009
Mike Hussey ended a run of poor form with a match-winning innings for Australia in the first one-day international against South Africa at Kingsmead Friday.
Hussey hit 83 not out as Australia piled up 286 for seven. South Africa were then bowled out for 145 as Australia completed a crushing 141-run win in the opening encounter of a five-match series.
The left-handed Hussey's 79-ball innings enabled Australia to recover from two chaotic run-outs which cost the wickets of two of the team's top four batsmen. South African captain Graeme Smith made an attacking 52 and put on 74 off 72 balls for the second wicket with Herschelle Gibbs (33). But the South Africans lost their way against accurate bowling by medium-pacer James Hopes and off-spinner Nathan Hauritz. Hopes took two for 24 and Hauritz four for 29 as South Africa were bowled out with 16.5 overs remaining.
AUS v SA, 1st ODI, Durban: Australia 286-7 (50.0 overs) beat South Africa 145 (33.1 overs) by 141 runs
