Pune Punks Vs. Kanpur Kiwis
20 overs


Code:
0.1  V Yo Mahesh to S.Jayasuriya, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0) 
0.2  V Yo Mahesh to S.Jayasuriya, For all the Americans out there, that's the cricketing equivalent of a Home-Run. Nice stuff. Six.  (6) 
0.3  V Yo Mahesh to S.Jayasuriya, Very well bowled.  (0) 
0.4  V Yo Mahesh to S.Jayasuriya, Sloppy fielding, the batsmen were content with one but end up getting two.  (2) 
0.5  V Yo Mahesh to S.Jayasuriya, , Wide, one run  (1) 
0.5  V Yo Mahesh to S.Jayasuriya, He's slogged that down to cow corner. Long on runs in to field, and the batsmen get two. The captain is clearly not very happy with his fielder's effort there.  (2) 
0.6  V Yo Mahesh to S.Jayasuriya, The run the first hard, they come for two, the fielder has the ball, they call for the third...will they get there!?! The throw is in, it's wide, the batsman makes the dive...and he's in! Excellent running, and poor fielding. 3 more!  (3)

1.2  A.Flintoff to S.Jayasuriya, Tries to late cut that away but misses it, and the ball thuds into the keeper's gloves. No run.  (0) 
1.3  A.Flintoff to S.Jayasuriya, That six has cleared the car park!  (6) 
1.4  A.Flintoff to S.Jayasuriya, He's absolutely NAILED that one, but the man in the deep makes a fantastic save, pushing the ball back in just in time! His teammate picks up the ball and hurls it in and they save a run, good teamwork.  (3) 
1.5  A.Flintoff to S.Tendulkar, Ah, he's beaten by the movement! It moved in the air, and deviated away off the pitch, taking the offstump with it! No chance for the batsman there, he just walks away bemused.

2.5  V Yo Mahesh to R.Sarwan, Short ball outside offstump, the batsman rocks back to cut it and sends it up and over point for six!  (6) 
2.6  V Yo Mahesh to R.Sarwan, And that's a slower ball gone horribly wrong. Sits up and begs to be smacked for four, which it promptly is.  (4)

3.4  A.Flintoff to A.Rahane, Oooh! Good ball, yorker length delivery on the legstump. The batsman just barely gets his bat down on time, and the non striker urges him through for a quick single.  (1) 
3.5  A.Flintoff to R.Sarwan, Tries to work it off his legs, misses, and the fielders go up in appeal! It has to be out, it HAS to be out! NOOOOO! The umpire is unmoved! Gosh that must have been close.  (0)

16.3  S.Trivedi to C.White, Slog-sweep time! He hasn't executed that quite well, and....yup, he's out caught! Tough luck kid, maybe you'll do better next time.

18.3  D.Steyn to B.McCullum, And time for the reverse-sweep! Quite a daring and often needless shot if you ask me, but the batsman pulls it off well enough to get two more.  (2)
