Scorecard | Australia innings
The pressure and required rate were mounting. Gayle found the waiting game too difficult to play. Ricky Ponting replaced Tait with Glenn McGrath in the eighth over.
Second ball from McGrath, he tried to pull the shorter one and ended up top-edging the ball. Shane Watson took the high-catch comfortably to send back Gayle for only two off 23 balls (16-2).
