on the board, with all three having their off-stump knocked out

Australia dumped Pakistan out of the World T20 and set up a winner-takes-all clash with hosts India on Sunday courtesy of a 21-run victory in Mohali. Steve Smith (61no from 43) top scored for Australia in a total of 193-4, the skipper sharing rollicking, 38-ball stands of 62 with Glenn Maxwell (30 from 18) and an unbeaten 74 with the soon-to-retire Shane Watson (44no from 28).Spinner Adam Zampa (2-32) then accounted for the dangerous Umar Akmal (32 from 20) and Pakistan skipper Shahid Afridi (14 from seven) as the 2009 champions were restricted to 172-8, James Faulkner (5-27) firing at the death to complete the best bowling figures by an Australian in T20Is.Pakistans defeat was their third in four games in Group 2 and leaves them unable to progress to the semi-finals, with the victor of this weekends Australia-India encounter - the sides currently locked together on four points - joining table-toppers New Zealand in the last four.Usman Khawaja (21 off 16) made a brisk start in his first match against the country of his birth, before being clean bowled by a Wahab Riaz yorker in the fourth over, two balls after pulling the searing left-armer for a sumptuous six over deep backward square. Wahab Riaz (R) bowled Usman Khawaja and David Warner David Warner (nine) - up a spot to No 3 in a rejigged Australia bating line-up that saw Aaron Finch drafted in to open and Watson drop from the top of the order to No 6 - fell in similar fashion two overs later, Wahab (2-35) rattling the top of his middle stump.Finchs dismissal shortly after, the burly opener bowled by spinner Imad Wasim for 15, saw Smiths men slip to 57-3, but the skipper and Maxwell powered on, the latter drilling a superb maximum over long-off just prior to being caught at long-on off Imad (2-31). Maxwells exit didnt disrupt the scoring, with Smith reaching his second T20I fifty from 35 deliveries - his other, an effort of 90, coming against England in Cardiff last August - and Watson nailing three sixes and four fours as Australia plundered 66 runs from the final five overs.Sharjeel Khan (30 from 19) started like a train for Pakistan, much like he did against New Zealand on Wednesday when cracking 47 from 25 balls, but his opening partner, Ahmed Shehzad (one) fell cheaply, top-edging an attempted slog off the recalled Josh Hazlewood to mid-off.Sharjeels enterprising knock, which featured nine boundaries, came to an end when he chopped Faulkner onto his stumps in the sixth over, though Pakistan rebounded in the seventh with Akmal walloping Watson for 17 runs, including for six over midwicket. Sharjeel Khan powered nine fours from his opening berth Akmal, though, came unstuck against Zampa, bowled middle pole after missing an almighty heave to leg, and Pakistans hopes diminished further when Afridi - perhaps in his final T20I - was stumped having launched the leg-spinner over the ropes the ball before.Afridis men looked beaten way before Faulkner dismissed top scorer Khalid Latif (46 from 41) and Imad (0) from successive balls in the 18th and, needing 30 from Faulkners final over, could only muster eight, with Sarfraz Ahmed (two) and Wahab (0) caught out in the process.Watch highlights of Australias game with Pakistan at 6.30pm on Sky Sports 2 and then catch their crunch clash with India, in Mohali, from 1.30pm on Sunday on the same channel.

Derbyshire 199 for 6 (Madsen 76) trail Leicestershire 380 (Eckersley 117*, Parkinson 4-90) by 181 runs Scorecard Many county bowling attacks have suffered at the hands of Wayne Madsen over the years, but none more so than Leicestershires since the likeable South African made his first appearance in the County Championship back in 2009.Madsen was at it again on the second day of this Division Two match. His innings of 76 not only held the Derbyshire first innings together, just about, it saw him pass both 9,000 career first-class runs and 1,000 against Leicestershire. The only surprise, as far as Leicestershire supporters were concerned, was seeing Madsen attempt to pull a Charlie Shreck bouncer and top edge a catch into the leg side.Leicestershires first innings 380 was built on a first century of the season for Ned Eckersley. Resuming on 300 for 7, Eckersley and Ben Raine extended their eighth wicket partnership to 58 before the left-handed Raine was tempted into driving at a wide delivery from Alex Hughes, and was well caught off the outside edge by wicket-keeper Alex Mellor, standing up to Hughes medium-pace.Richard Jones played over a straight ball from very occasional offspinner Neil Broom, at which point Eckersley was in danger of being stranded on 99 - the more so because Leicestershire No. 11 Charlie Shreck came to the wicket having scored no runs at all in any of his previous seven innings.Shreck kept out what remained of Brooms over, however, and in the following over Eckersley steered left-armer Callum Parkinson into the off side for the runs he need to go to his century, which came off 223 balls and included nine fours.Shreck waas left not out, again without scoring, when Eckersley, on 117, went down the wicket and tried to loft Callum Parkinson to long-on, but could not clear Derbyshire captain Billy Godleman.dddddddddddd The 19-year-old Parkinson, making his first-class debut, finished with 4 for 90 from 33.4 overs.Derbyshire lost their first three batsmen with just 40 on the board, with all three having their off-stump knocked out of the ground. Godleman had only himself to blame, shouldering arms to a Clint McKay inswinger, but Ben Slater and Chesney Hughes both received superb deliveries that straightened off the seam from Ben Raine.Madsen has been consistency personified this season however, coming into the match having scored 860 championship runs at an average of over 60, and the right-hander hit eight fours in going to his 50 off 71 balls.Broom looked less secure, and had already played across the line on a couple of occasions when clipping Shrecks outswingers through the leg side when he got a leading edge attempting the shot again, and was well caught by Raine running back from mid-on for 33.Madsen may have been fortunate to survive a leg before shout to the following ball, but McKay returned to pick up the wicket of Shiv Thakor, pinning the former Leicestershire allrounder leg before to his third delivery.The evening session was a different story. Madsen and Alex Hughes battled away, at least until Madsens rush of blood, and Hughes and Mellor, making his first class debut, saw the visitors to the close without further loss. ' ' '
