*I hope Pakistan trounce them
*Wow big wicket by White!
*CMON AUSSIES! CHASE THIS DOWN! Pakistani bowlers suck
*Marsh left that delivery Hope our future captain and current can hold this things and get us out of this massacre. RR is getting after every deliveries, need to take advantage of powerplays. Its a risk though now, but somehow they got to do it. CMon Aussies :happy

*Gul has simply crushed the middle order, now if Hussey and Hopes get 100s each then Aussies might win

*Australia really are under the thumb unless they remove one of these two!
*Pakistan are definitely the favourites, and firm favourites they are. I think Mr.Cricket might hold out but I think they will collapse and won't get within 100 runs of the target.
*Pakistan on top, need a few partnerships now through the Aussie middle order.
*Good start for Pakistan. if they can get a couple of wickets, they'll be in firm control.

*Good start there by the Pakistani's... solid opening partnership! If the aussies can pick up wickets they got this game otherwise its all Pakistan!
*Great start there by Pakistan! Nazir especially is on fire!
*Good comeback by Australia here. Could be an exciting match if Pakistan play carefully.
*Tanvir is getting cheap wickets because of Shoaib's fury at other end. *The middle of a crisis, who better to walk in than Mr Cricket? I'd say they're still in the hunt, they need a big partnership here.
*Pakistan are just murdering the World Champions !! Go Pakistan !!! Gul has been brilliant hope he and Tanvir destroys them with 110

*Come on Pak
*Well of course. Only a team as crap as Pakistan could have produced bowlers the caliber of Sarfraz, Imran, Waqar, Wasim and Shoaib. Tanvir, Akhtar, Gul and Afridi are more than capable of defending under lights
*Pakistan are going to win it now. Unless something special happens.
*What a batting collapse....Its all in Pakistan's favor now!
*Now that Ponting is gone Pakistan have an awesome chance of winning this one

*Good shot from Hameed picks out the fielder . It's all down to Shoaib Malik now!
*Hoping Pakistan can recover and give the Aussies a good fight!

Great presentation!

Well played to the Pakistani team, but nothing has been achieved yet, the Aussies will bounce back and I'm sure competition will hot up, so keep it up!

Sharjah Cup
Australia vs New Zealand
Live from Sharjah

S.Manjrekar: Hello and welcome to the second One-Day International of this Sharjah Cup between Australia and New Zealand. The Australians performed poorly in their previous match against Pakistan and need a win to get back on winning ways. New Zealand are coming back off a 3-1 ODI Series win against England and have a young and experienced team led by Danial Vettori. Barry Richards is down there with the Match Conditions and Pitch Report.

B.Richards: This pitch today is dusty and is still flat from the previous match. Runs will come but if the bowlers hit the correct areas they can also pick up wickets. Whoever wins the toss should bat first.

R.Raja: Ricky Ponting has won the toss and elected to bat first.

Australia Innings​

The Australian openers Shaun Marsh and Matthew Hayden started off very well. They were taking advantage of the PowerPlays and hitting over the top very often. Daniel Vettori looked on as Australia reached their 100 in the 20th over. Thats when Marsh and Hayden departed in quick time. Marsh had just reached 50 before he chipped the ball straight to Ross Taylor who was at Cover. Hayden had also just reached his 50 before he hooked a bouncer from Mills straight to Fine-Leg where Styris took the catch. From there, wickets continued to tumble as the Australians went from 100/0 to 180/6. It took some lower-order hitting from Hussey (27), Bracken (26), Lee (12) and Clark *(10) to get Australia to 246 All out with over 8 overs left. Mark Gillespie injured his finger whilst fielding and has been rushed to Hospital. James Marshall will take his place in batting.

Matthew Hayden top-scored for Australia with an aggressive 56​

Australian Scorecard​

New Zealand Innings​

New Zealand run-chase started in a similar way to the Australians Innings with Ross Taylor and Matthew Sinclair attacking in the PowerPlay overs. However, New Zealand lost Sinclair early. From then, the New Zealand batsmen made starts but did not go on to capitalize on the starts. With Gillespie rushed to Hospital, James Marshall came in at Number 10 with New Zealand requiring 56 off 54. Marshall started to hit but was the last man to be dismissed as Symonds hit the bullseye and Australia won their first game of the Tournament by 34 Runs.

Ross Taylor top-scored for New Zealand with 33 in a poorly compiled run-chase​

New Zealand Scorecard​

Result: Australia win by 34 runs
Next Match: New Zealand vs Pakistan​

Nice win for the Aussies there although we should of got more after the good start. Kiwis crumbled so it was all good in the end.

Brilliant presentation mate KUTGW!
