Matthew Hayden finally broke his century duck in the tournament, something which would have been unthinkable of his 2007 avatar but such was his luck here. He added 129 runs for the 4th wicket in really quick time with the similarly in-form Ben Stokes, and had seemingly put VC's Sloggers in an impregnable position at 219/3 with the likes of Collis King, MS Dhoni and Richard Hadlee still to come.

129384.2.jpg


But this was a day when all of VC's lower-order hitters fell flat as the mercurial Shahid Afridi ran amok with 4 wickets to his name after a couple of indifferent outings with the ball. Gone were their hopes of a 300-plus total as they failed to reach even 250 in the end.

HNHP did not have to face the embarrassment of being five down in the powerplay for a third match on the trot, with Dennis Amiss finally finding some form with a very classy 92 that helped anchor their chase quite effectively. He put on 104 alongside Viv Richards for the 2nd wicket, with the latter employing a surprisingly safety-first approach following his two off color games, and then went on to add a further 95 with Ryan ten Doeschate who managed to do some form-finding of his own with an aggressive 62 off 61 balls. With the run chase all but sealed, he fell rather agonizingly short of three figures when a vicious bumper from Brett Lee caught his glove on the way behind to the keeper. The team featuring both Brett Lee and Shoaib Akhtar alongside the wily Richard Hadlee were made to pack their bags, much to the relief of batters all around the competition.

For all those doubting his captaincy credentials irl, whatever Rohit Sharma has done thus far either as captain or batter in this tourney has turned to gold. Fortune favored him once again, allowing him to send the SOPs in on an overcast wicket which greatly suited West Indian-turned-later Canadian speedster Anderson Cummins, who ran through their top and middle-orders with a five-fer. They might not have got as many as 229 even if it hadn't been for a resilient knock of 61 off 74 balls by one of India's '83 World Cup protagonists in Yashpal Sharma.

The Alliance continued their golden run with another solid performance by their top-order, which was bolstered today by a return to form for Aravinda de Silva - one of their biggest acquisitions who had largely failed to impress until today in spite of his 1996 heroics with the bat. His knack of carrying such things over into semis and finals now arguably makes them an extremely dangerous opponent for anyone they might face.

Though they managed to survive his initial spell, Curtly Ambrose returned with a vengeance to knock the World Cup Warriors out cold with a superb five-wicket haul to finish with figures of 5 for 46 off 9.4 overs. He began the slide by removing a very well set Graham Gooch for 59, thereafter ran through the remaining batters in his usual menacing way to restrict his opponents to a very gettable 261, despite some brief fireworks from the likes of Scott Styris and Kevin O'Brien.

John Davison got the Blasters off to an ideal start with some of his typical blasting at the top of the order, but proved his own worst enemy by self destructing in the most inexplicable manner by playing one cheeky shot too many to Glenn Maxwell's fairly innocuous off-breaks. The rest of his team-mates fell by the wayside as Allan Donald matched Ambrose for ferocity on one of his favorite hunting grounds to claim figures of 4 for 39 off his 9 overs. Their hopes then solely rested on the classy Zimbabwean southpaw Sean Williams, who was completely outfoxed by a jaffa from Muttiah Muralitharan on 37 and that basically sealed the deal for the Warriors.

The Odd Down Dynamites crawled along at a run rate barely going above 4 an over for most part of their innings as they struggled to come to terms with the prodigious amount of movement on offer from the wicket to the likes of Trent Boult and Glenn McGrath who applied a good stranglehold. Only a late dash from Steve Waugh and Chris Old - the only two batters who even threatened to score at above a run-a-ball, saw them finish with a total of 236 which although below par is still something to bowl at.

Shaun Pollock may have boasted a typically miserly economy of 3.10, but still couldn't buy any wickets to leave his tally at a rather disappointing 3 after 5 matches. The equally economical Michael Holding too only just managed to nudge his tally to at least 1 wicket per innings with his haul of 2 in this game. At the end of the day, no matter your economy, it is wickets that win you matches and that was proved by Mohammed Shami, who despite being the only bowler in the match to concede at more than a run-a-ball finished with a five-fer to knock out the Jaffa XI. His wickets tally after 5 matches now stood at a staggering 13 after a match where he could do little wrong except while bowling against a fired up Yuvraj Singh. The latter despite remaining heroically unbeaten on 53 off 56 balls couldn't get his team over the line, as he all but ran out of partners capable of wielding a bat properly.

The Match-up was a lot closer than what it seems on paper. If Jaffa XI had De Villiers lower down the order the results might have been reversed. Overall good performance by the team, especially Kirsten Sanga and Shami.
 
Honestly, I thought we were a gonner given the sub-par score and them scoring 90 for 1 wicket but what a comeback from us. Credit to the bowlers for making a game out of it. Davison gave us a scare. They played well but its always good to advance onto the next round.

Teams were evenly match and it was anyones game, special performance from Shami
Brian McMillan does not have good tournament and we were always short in batting.
Glad we reach this far. Regarding ABD I genuinely thought we were supposed to play them at said position :sweat:
 
Yeah, not surprised at that result. We performed as well as we ought to have with that squad, can’t have too many complaints.
 
As easy as they come! Really happy with that performance, especially with Amiss and Afridi finally finding form. Bring on the semis!
