3rd ODI: Gilly, Lee Rested

Australia have elected to rest World Cup heroes Adam Gilchrist and Brett Lee. Both players have played virtually non-stop cricket as fatigue begins to grip the Australian squad.

Hence, fresh new players Michael Clarke and Nathan Hauritz will earn their second and fifth cap respectively, with Jimmy Maher taking the gloves.
