CYCLONE PHYAN developing over the western coast is likely to threaten the seventh and final one-day match between India and Australia scheduled in Mumbai on Wednesday (November 12). The series has already been won by Australia 4-2 and this match is a dead rubber as far as the fate of this Hero Honda Cup 2009 is concerned.

India, however, will be looking to salvage the pride and like to end the series on a winning note. However, the chances of this match being played are bleak as the Indian Meteorological Department has issued a cyclone alert, which is likely to hit Mumbai and parts of Maharashtra and Gujarat.

With heavy rains and squall winds being predicted in Mumbai in the next 24 hours, it is likely that the match will be washed off. The tickets for the match to be held at DY Patil stadium have been sold out and a capacity crowd is likely to watch the tie, provided the weather god permits.
