Unbeaten century by Symonds

LONDON, SEPT. 4 Andrew Symonds crafted a superb unbeaten century to steer Australia to 269 for six after Pakistan's attack had threatened to peg back the world champions in a one-day international at Lord's on Saturday.

The right hander hit 104 in 103 balls, to reach his second one-day hundred, although he was dropped on 24 and 82 by Rana Naveed-ul-Husan and Yousuf Youhana both in the deep as Pakistan stumbled in the field.

Michael Clarke also struck 31 in a 88-run stand but skied Shoaib Akhtar to Shoaib Malik three overs from the end.

Australia rested Glenn McGrath for the one-off game in preparation for next week's ICC Champions Trophy.

Brief scores:

Australia 269 for six in 50 overs (M.Hayden 52, D.Martyn 26, A. Symonds (not out) 104, M.Clarke 31).
