ADVERTISEMENT An Australia side much-changed from the team that lost to England at the Oval five days ago posted 345 all out. Hussey led the way as he staked his claim for selection in the upcoming limited overs matches against England by hitting 111 from just 83 balls. In reply Scotland got off to a spirited start as openers Gavin Hamilton and Fraser Watts put on a quick 51. But the hosts then lost four wickets for 31 runs and Australia wrapped up the tail to bowl Scotland out for 156 from 39.3 overs. Despite the size of the win, Hussey said Scotland had provided good preparation ahead of Australia's first Twenty20 against England at Old Trafford on Sunday. "I think it was a very hard test," he said. "Their opening batters got off to a great start their bowlers were super and got the most out of the wicket. It was a really good contest. "I think we saw that in the way our bowlers took to it and I think we put a marker down." Australia handed debuts to Dirk Nannes - who only in June appeared for Holland at the World Twenty20 - as well as wicketkeeper-batsman Tim Paine. Their selections marked a much-changed team with only Michael Clarke, standing in for Ricky Ponting as captain, Mitchell Johnson and Shane Watson remaining from the side that lost at the Oval. If they had hoped to put that disappointment to one side, then Australia did not get off to the start they wanted when David Warner was out for a duck in the first over. The opener feathered a catch off Dewald Nel through to wicketkeeper Marc Petrie. Clarke also fell cheaply when he missed an attempted swipe to leg off a Gordon Goudie slower ball and was bowled. But despite the early wickets the tourists proceeded at a brisk pace, thanks mostly to Watson who reached his fifty off just 30 balls. He took 16 from Richie Berrington's first over, but was out soon after when he flicked Nel to Ryan Watson at deep square leg for a 41-ball 68. Cameron White failed to cash in on his chance as he could only make 19, and with the score 143 for four their was some onus on Hussey and Adam Voges to forge a stand. The pair responded with a 114-run partnership from 83 balls as Hussey began his onslaught on Haq. Voges was happy to play second fiddle, adding just 29 in the first 100 of their stand, although Hussey rode his luck when Gordon Drummond athletically held a catch only to jump over the mid-on boundary in doing so. Hussey did depart next over when Neil McCallum held on inches in front of the ropes. Voges took up where Hussey left off, thrashing four sixes to reach 72, while Haq's miserable day worsened when he dropped a simple return chance. The tourists might have then expected to post a score of over 350, but the late hitting never materialised as Goudie claimed the final four wickets for 22 runs - giving him figures of five for 73.
