India vs Australia 2007 Cricket Series Chandigarh ODI
IND vs AUS, 4th ODI: India beat Australia by 8 runs (AUS 2:1)
Oct 8, 2007
India pulled off a narrow 8 run victory against Australia in the fourth one-day match at Chandigarh to stay alive in the Future Cup series today.
India, who posted a daunting 291 for 4 in their 50 overs with half-centuries from Sachin Tendulkar (79) and skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni (50 no), restricted the visitors to 283 for 7. With the series now 2-1 in Australias favour, the rest of the three ODIs will definitely set up an interesting series, should India now comeback in the next match to be on level terms. The Australian chase was set up by two powerful innings from opener Matthew Hayden (92) and Andrew Symonds (75), who scored his third fifty of the series.
Reported Earlier: Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss and decided to bat in their fourth one-day cricket match against Australia.

For Australia, Nathan Bracken has been inducted in the playing eleven, which has Stuart Clark as the 12th man.

The Venue
The Sector 16 Stadium is a cricket stadium in Chandigarh, India. It hosted its first ODI match on January 27, 1985 and its only Test match in 1990. It comes under the Haryana Cricket Association.It has hosted only three matches. Ithe likes of Kapil Dev, Chetan Sharma and Yograj Singh started playing cricket at the Sector 16 Stadium. It fell out of favour to the nearby Punjab Cricket Association Stadium (Mohali) cricket ground. After the stadium in Mohali was built, there was no first-class cricket at the Sector 16 Stadium for 10 years before Haryana ended the barren spell by playing the Ranji Trophy Plate League semi-final in 2004-05. But after 14 years an event of India & Australia ODI series will play over here on 8th oCt 2007 after the span of 14 years.
