Lindsay Hassett's scintillating 174 in the second innings turned the match around after an evenly matched contest between both sides in alien conditions.

Vince van der Bijl picked up a tremendous 11 wickets for the match in spin-friendly conditions, only to end up on the losing side.

Australia sailed into the final with a 138-run victory. The South Africans still have another chance of progressing further when the play the semi-final against the winner of the eliminator.

Australia B         233 & 469
South Africa A      312 & 252
  
Australia B won by 138 runs
 
Man of the match: Lindsay Hassett

We won but I didn't post the lineup, did I? I was waiting for your reply to know which team we're facing in the next match.

 

[Gaurav_7]

The match against West Indies was where we lost the momentum and now losing this one is even more disheartening as we were on top after the first innings.

Cook was good at the top but, Barlow didn't do much in the middle order. Let's see what we can do in the last shot we have got. Hopefully the team will turn it around and we will defeat the Aussies in the finale!

I didn't see you mention that in your previous post so I assumed you wanted to go in unchanged. I got the fixtures and all right, just the injury listing wrong. My bad again.

Nevermind, bring Miller back in for the final. He will play at #6.

And I presume the player getting the axe is McCool?

Nobody realized Lindwall scored 115 runs and took 7 wickets including a crucial century partnership in first innings.

That's partly my fault. The sim had given him the MoTM award but I handed it over to Hassett for that brilliant knock.

Viv Richards was back to his best on a day when the West Indian quicks didn't quite dominate their opposition in the way they're used to. He was unlucky to miss out on a hundred in the first innings when the edged one onto his stumps, but made up for it with an even more domineering knock in the second innings. His quickfire 121 was good enough to even turn the usually aggressive Gordon Greenidge into a stonewaller. The pair did more than half the work for the West Indies who got themselves a semi-final berth by chasing down the 292 set by Australia.

Despite not doing much wrong other than running into Richards at his sublime best, Australia were eliminated from the competition. At least they won't have to head back home this time, because they're already there!

Australia A         291 & 297
West Indies A       297 & 293/6             
  
West Indies A won by 4 wickets
 
Man of the match: Viv Richards

 

[Aravind.]

Viv Richards was the difference,was expecting much more from our bowlers at the 2nd innings on a waca pitch,chasing almost 300 was never easy,maybe not picking warne back fired us.Thanks to @VC the slogger for this well presented league & @Umair2000 for having me as your co manager.

 

[Gaurav_7]

I will go with the same XI, thanks.
