Australia Batting Innings:

Justin Langer opened the batting for Australia with fellow veteran Matthew Hayden, and both men dominated play. The whole Duke's XI team struggled to make 193, but it only took both Langer and Hayden to make 194 for Australia. Both Langer and Hayden dominated early with the new ball, hitting about 7 1/2 runs an over, with maybe even more in some overs. Justin Langer was the 1st batsman to reach 50 for the 2, and Hayden followed along with 50 of his own. Duke's XI were getting frasturated and not even their spin bowlers to grab a wicket.
Justin Langer faced 119 Balls from the bowlers, while hitting 12 brilliant fours, hitting no 6's during the game which had a total of 96 runs not out in the end of the day.
And fellow veteran Matthew Hayden, faced 138 Balls, while hitting 8 fours along the way, with no 6's and took his total to 90 runs not out, which had a total of 195 with 8 extra's and a total of 195 after 42.5 Overs were bowled.

Because while i was playing them, technical stuff happened to the electricity and it took the power of which i was in the middle of playing games, and lost all the information. But now the days are a bit clearer and sunny, then we wont have to worry about the power going off.

ok thanks

great pres i like the wagon wheels great work
so does everyone else like the Wagon wheel?? if so i will use it more in the future, plus some other stuff
 
yep i think you should include them, but perhaps only for the main batsman, just say Laanger scores 100, Clarke 50, then show their wagon wheels
 
Nice work with the Wagon Wheels . Great presentation . Hoping that we will get to see more and more wonderful presentation in future as well . Nice work .Keep it up :cheers
 
Sorry guys didnt continue last night, as i was out celebrating new years, so i'll continue some more today
 
Durham v Australia
One-Day Match @ Chester Le Street

Match Conditions: Day - Normal Pitch - Overcast - Mild

Australia won the toss and elected to Field.
 
Austrlia faced a daunting task, but Captain Ricky Ponting kept the away side in the battle. Durham posted a good One-Day match score of 216 with their whole team all out.
Justin Langer and Matthew Hayden opened the account for the Aussie's but it didnt last very long, 1st ball of the Innings, Matthew Hayden was run out, early in the stage which really buggered up Australia at that stage. But no need to worry, captain Ricky Ponting was 3rd to come in, and he and Langer produced a great Innings by the 2 of them.
Justin Langer hit 66, when he was stumped by P. Mustard after attempting to hit the ball on the back foot, but miss the ball completely and was stumped.
Captain Ricky Ponting, was the player of the Innings, taking a total of 127 before he was run out also, with a miss understanding with Michael Hussey which saw the Captain, get a standing ovation from every in the crowd

Australia took 9 extra's and a total of 217.
