Aussies wrap up landmark win

Australia cruised to their 20th successive World Cup win at the expense of an under-strength Sri Lanka today to make almost certain of topping the Super Eight table.

Sri Lanka’s stop-start 226 all out proved inadequate – Nathan Bracken taking four for 19 – as Ricky Ponting (66no) led his team home in an unbroken century stand alongside Andrew Symonds (63no), with seven wickets and more than seven overs to spare.
