Despite Aitchison's struggle, the run chase was way too easy for the Europeans. They may well have booked themselves a berth in the final with this clinical performance. South America on the other hand finished winless in a disastrous campaign.

Fantastic and one of the true one man army type performance. Barnes totally destroyed the Americans. 7 wickets in 1st and then 8 in 2nd innings. We cant ignore Ken's performance on this type of pitch when everyone struggled he and Hutton kept going.
Good to see us performing like this.
 
I apologize for the inactivity here. Most of my limited free time has been occupied by calculating stats for Cricket Dynasty and the PCPL, and then re-watching some old movies for no apparent reason. I will get back to this when I'm done with either one of those.

Oceania's top and middle orders failed to get going once again. A much welcome half-century from Shane Warne helped get their lead past 200. Asia were given 216 to chase with the best part of three sessions remaining in the match.

Glenn McGrath gave them a few jitters along with way with what was probably his best spell of a dreadful season with the ball.

However, McGrath and the Oceanians were eventually thwarted in their efforts by a resilient Rahul Dravid, who remained unbeaten on 91 to guide Asia to victory and quite possibly a place in the final (depending on how the next match goes).

The Africans went through North America's top-order cheaply, only to run into Brian Lara and Garry Sobers at their absolute best. The legendary left-handed pair added 193 for the 4th wicket in quick time, before Lara was dismissed just four short of a century. The North American tail wagged enough to get them a slender 11-run first innings lead.

This was the part where they pounced to bowl out their opposition for an under-par score. Africa were collectively dismantled for 208 with all of the North American bowlers chipping in with a wicket or two. Barry Richards and Graeme Smith were the only batsmen to make it past 20.

Viv Richards ruthlessly dominated the African bowling attack from the unfamiliar opening position alongside Desmond Haynes. Africa's campaign was all but over. North America (99 points) and Asia (86 points) were the ones to make it to the final with Europe (83 points) only just falling short.

Wonderful match that. Imran Khan played a captain's innings and his all round efforts helped us win the match. But who was the mainstay of the batting, yup Rahul Dravid deserves every credit for it. Brilliantly done. Tendulkar had an off match but maybe that's a calm before the storm. The big final is coming and he will be ready!

Two undefeated teams in the final, couldn't have got better than that. They are a challenge for us and now let's show them our A game and win the league. Should be a cracker!

The North American side consisting mostly of West Indian cricketers, but with two more than competent Americans in Bart King and George Patterson emerged victors of Legends At Battle Season VII. Asia were forced to settle for second best after a unbeaten run in the tournament prior to the final.

byAFence.jpg


Gordon Greenidge was adjudged Man of the Match for his scores of 140 and 38 in the match. Just like the previous season, he had saved his best performance for the last and most crucial match of the tournament.

Richard-Hadlee_1861764.jpg


After a miserable tournament, the Oceanians had something to cheer about with Richard Hadlee being declared Player of the Season for an astonishing haul of 36 wickets in just 5 matches at an average of 18.03. He picked four 5-wicket hauls and one 10-wicket match haul, which came in one innings with him picking an unbelievable 10/46 against eventual champions North America.
