Story Australia in Bangladesh!(ICC 06)

A pinch hitter eh? He'd better not get me run-out. :

 

[GrayNicolls]

Some great pinch hitting by Mathers gets him our LBW first ball and brings in the captain who averages 20 with the bat.

Roberts is still unmoved at the other end.

 

[plympilgrim]

come on evo time to smash some aussies in...

 

[GrayNicolls]

"Another one bites the dust". Matt West survived two balls and edged behind for Gilchrist. Watson took 3 wickets in one over. Oh dear. Looks like it is down to Matty Roberts to drag New Zealand to a good score. But, some hope on the horizon as Dan Mackie marches to the crease through loud cheers from the Kiwi fans.

 

[plympilgrim]

DOH, again out cheaply

 

[evertonfan]

Looks like its all up to me again...

 

[GrayNicolls]

Dan Mackie is unfazed and hits McGrath for two boundaries off of 2 balls.

Can these two withstand the pressure?

 

[GrayNicolls]

Shane Warne coming back to the ODI game, takes the vital wicket of Matty Roberts. Suddenly, New Zealand seem in all sorts of trouble. Matty Roberts with a lazy shot which gives Warne a simple return catch.

In comes Mr.Teague.

 

[GrayNicolls]

New Zealand are playing poorly...Treva Teague couldn't do anything about his dismissal. Brett Lee bowled a brilliant delivery, which he had to play, he did, and he was unlucky to edge to slip. Manee comes to the crease.

 

[evertonfan]

Flippin' 'eck! How could I get out so softly?

 

[GrayNicolls]

Mackie. New Zealand's only hope. Is out.
He got very impatient and chipped it to long off.

 

[evertonfan]

Are you sure you aren't managing England Nic?

 

[GrayNicolls]

A tip to all youngsters. Do NOT use Matt West's technique. Willie played the trademark shot perfectly. And he got bowled...

 

[GrayNicolls]

Are you sure you aren't managing England Nic?

Or Australia.

 

[GrayNicolls]

Manee is playing a delightful innings. And he is showing those rubbish batsmen (Matt Roberts included) how to bat.
