I'm gonna autoplay a bit to get this twenty20 game finished as I didn't think it would take this long to play and I'm falling well behind the actual tour, plus I have less time during the week to play.

Aussies Win in thriller!​

Not even a miscommunication from Ricky Ponting causing Damien Martyn to be bowled in the final over could help South Africa as it failed to chase the required 154 runs to be defeated by the bell.

The series has been possibly downgraded to 3 matches, but I'm not sure yet.

Aussies Lose Ponting​

Ricky Ponting at Training earlier in the week​

Ricky Ponting has been ruled out of at least the first 3 ODIs against South Africa, possibly the entire series for an abdominal strain meaning that Adam Gilchrist will captain the side in his absence. Victorian batsmen Brad Hodge has been drafted into the side in his absence.

Smith Wins Toss​

Graeme Smith has won the toss and elected to bowl on a green pitch at Johannesburg. The Aussies have named Phil Jaques as their opener for the match with Simon Katich at Number 3.

Jaques Attacking Early!​

Phil Jaques is showing why he was selected with some attacking early on in the match.

 

[Cricket_60]

Good stuff from Jaques. Even better stuff not picking Hodge.

Hodgey isn't too popular?
Will try to play a bit but won't be posting much today, I'm a bit busy, but will have some time tomorrow

 

[Short Leg]

No way Hodgey is a legend and what's even better is that he's a Victorian. You blokes are just jealous.

Don't worry mate, Hodgey will play the tests. I'm trying to play a bit now, I will only play as many matches as required (if a team wins the first 3 matches there will be no last two games)

And he will stay a victorian!

 

[Short Leg]
