Australian Domestic Cricket

starved of victory, sa have gone after the bonus point and their desperation might have given victoria hope. they can't get after the slower bowlers. 4 wickets down, most of the runs not yet made, they might actually be losing it.

----------

make that 5 wickets. unbelievable.

----------

no, six! bamboozled by holland.
 
nice batting by WA hopefully we can get enough time to win this game. and another knock like that from Marsh will be nice.
 
and Holland's got 5. magnificent spin bowling. there's no pressure on the batsmen to score, so he's had to force them to give up wickets.

----------

No wait, he's got 6
 
salpietro bowls one that goes the other way. gets a few to turn too, but his control of length is just a bit, well, krejzy.
 
possibly one of the most interesting games ever. it won't look good on paper that herrick bowled one over for one wicket, but it mostly made sense at the time. holland went into the attack straight away, got results and bowled out his spell. mcdonald almost could have done the same. although expensive, siddle was the obvious choice for the new ball and as go-to man for victoria, while herrick is still trying to get a foot in the door. the wicket turned and even though salpietro cost boundaries, he was worth at least a couple.

cooper was excellent under pressure, though he produced a couple of very silly reverse sweeps. amazing to think they get the bonus point for that.
 
I'm watching the replay of Eng/Pak thinking it's the halfway break for the Vic vs. SA game.. now I see they both sucked and it's already over :(
 
Nervewracking victory but well played by Cooper again
 
In a deadset fat bastard move, Tas take 1st inns points and declare. NSW 4/75 at stumps and it's uncertain whether they have 10, with a concussed Katich.
 
And so the bowling stocks again continue to look good while the batting stocks remain iffy. Bailey the main one putting his hand up, Smith did in the first innings as did Lynn but both failed in their second digs.
 
Shaun Marsh with runs next to his name? I don't believe it, must've been his brother or sister in disguise.

Watson is making his return sometime this week.. in grade cricket. Seems rather pointless, but what do I know?
