Certainly the best I've seen Adam Gilchrist bat in quite some time, he really played himself into form against the cricketing "galacticos".

Martyn should've been caught first ball, but got away with it and didn't look back, and stupid captaincy by Pollock, bowling Kallis in the last over after he'd gone for 20 off 2.

Disappointing from the World XI; gearing up for a big, mighty run chase. No McGrath, No Warne, No Gillespie, No Kasprowicz to keep it tight as they've so often done...expect the ICC World XI to go hard after Stuart Clark, Shane Watson and Cameron White, who is almost certain to get a bowl.

Hope it is entertaining.
