That's what I'm still waiting for from my guys against easier sides. I want my openers to get off to a flying start only problem is my NRR would fly through the roof.

Managed to get Chanderpaul away at last.

8.1 4 Chanderpaul to Masibulele
Full delivery, picked up over the umpire and long on chasing in vain.
8.6 4 Chanderpaul to Masibulele
No slip in place so Masibulele deliberately edged it. Four runs.

10.1 W Rizwanullah to Qadir
Ball on Qadir's body, glanced through to Mohmand, who takes a diving catch down leg side. Was that glove or thigh? The umpire's taking his time... and that's out, he says. Great snatch!

Qadir goes for 21

 

[aussie1st]

Got some problems now. His star spinners are starting to come into play.

Things have slowed down since the last wicket.

 

[aussie1st]

2nd spinner 16000 BT rating on now, oh boy going to be some real slowing down now.

Last Wicket: Qadir c. Mohmand b. Rizwanullah 21 (FOW: 64/2)

Cohen batting too slow for my liking.

16.2 1 Rizwanullah to Myall
Good length ball played down to Chaudhury at mid wicket and Myall hurries for a single. In comes the throw and they've just managed to reach safety. That Myall is a hare between the wickets!
And that's his fifty! Well played.

Myall gets yet another 50. What a brilliant young player!

18.2 W Rizwanullah to Cohen
Out. A top edged pull shot is taken by Zeeshan diving to his left.

The strangle hold has given him a wicket. Cohen never looked comfortable at the crease.

Who are you guys playing?

 

[aussie1st]

Oh boy my batting starting to fall apart. Both openers gone within the space of 2 overs.

18.6 W Gallacher to Masibulele
And Lewis is running around the boundary, he dives, and takes the catch one-handed. What a magnificent catch!!

19.4 W Armstrong to Steele
Armstrong is the spinball wizard! Clean bowled.

[Gilly Fan]

Black just hit a four.

21.2 4 Farooq to Black
It's all the way to the boundary as Raza makes a desperate dive at the ball, but misses.

2 more batsmen then the opposition is into the tail.

 

[aussie1st]

I'm playing Bilal team much better than mine and playing 3 spinners.
This will be Chavhanga's biggest challenge yet.

22.5 4 Gallacher to Weaver
Flicked with finesse off Weaver's legs and deep fine leg has no chance.

A couple of good overs for me. Probably because they have had a bowling change.
