Andy Roberts blew South America away with an extremely cheap ten-wicket match haul. His fiery spell of 6/33 in the second innings saw them bowled out in a matter of hours on the final day.

That's actually not a bad result for a team with only about 20 experienced Test players to hypothetically call upon. I'll take that.

We just managed a draw somehow. Not really happy with how we performed there. In such a league, it is a matter of getting the proper combination. Hopefully the one above will be fine.

Shaun Pollock expectedly troubled the South Americans on a pace-friendly Cape Town wicket. However, it was Steve Tikolo's under-rated offbreaks that proved to be the surprise package as he snapped up 4 wickets - including that of Fredericks, Kallicharran and Lloyd.

The Africans slipped under the banana peel that was Herbert Dorning. The Anglo-Argentine's early breakthroughs left them reeling at 13/3. Gritty half-centuries from Barry Richards, Andy Flower and Shaun Pollock helped them recover to gain a slender first-innings lead of 14.

Colin Croft's second five-fer of the match meant things got a little tricky for Africa. Luckily, they had Steve Tikolo coming in at No 9 to strike the winning runs. Colin Bland remained unbeaten at the other end with a fine half-century to his name.

North America's top four got going, but failed to convert their good starts into big hundreds - the likes of which are necessary on flat tracks. Muttiah Muralitharan bagged 5 wickets after having bowled more than 36 overs.

North America's intimidating pace quartet found next to no assistance as the Dubai pitch flattened out further. They were forced to bring on part-timer Vivian Richards to bowl to prevent their fast bowlers from complete exhaustion.

All this helped Sachin Tendulkar, who patiently compiled 154 from 321 deliveries, while Sehwag and Sangakkara perished in the nervous nineties.

The fate of the match was already sealed by the likes of Greenidge, Haynes, Headley and Lara. And so, Bart King was given a license to thrill, which he did with a quickfire half-century. Fellow American George Patterson also managed to put up fifty before the North Americans got bowled out.
