India rout Aussies

Australia’s long reign as World Cup cricket champions is over.
The holders of the game’s most prestigious prize since 1999 crashed out of the 2011 World Cup after losing their quarter-final showdown with India by five wickets yesterday.
Yuvraj Singh, who collected his fourth Man of the Match award in the tournament, guided the co-hosts to a target of 261 with 14 balls to spare with an unbeaten 57 that followed his two wickets.
A crowd of about 48 000 at Sardar Patel Stadium in Ahmedabad erupted in wild celebrations when India won the match to set up a semi-final duel with Pakistan.
