Story Pakistan : The High and The Lows -{The Twenty/20 WC!}--[By PC and BA and Sim]-[C07]

Good work Amir and PC! Pretty easy win in the end. Can I just ask why the wagon wheel only has 3 fours and a six which makes just 18 runs when he got 38?

Keep up the good work!

Oh I though I was only suppose to show his boundaries. I will add that the next time.

Btw, you forgot to mention Sim.

Yeh only realised he was in the story after the post. Yeh the wagon wheels usually show all, but at least you put in the effort to make one that looks classy

Australia Vs Zimbabwe Match Review​

The World Champions were looking for victory in their first game of the Tournament. But what they got was quite a surprise. Captain Ricky Ponting won the toss and elected to field first in a night game. Here are the teams.

Zimbabwe Innings: 137/7 20 Overs (V.Sibanda 26, E.Chigumbara *20 M.Clarke 2-23, C.White 2-34)
Without Matthew Hayden at the top of the order, "Mr.Cricket" Michael Hussey was promoted up the order. The opening bowlers started well as Brett Lee was generating Pace and Bounce which was troubling for the opening batsmen. However, Mazakadza was reluctant to get off the mark and risked a single to Michael Clarke who hit the stumps and Mazakadza was on his way. Knowing the Scoring rate was not going high, Vusi Sibanda launched a huge six scaling 96 metres over Cameron White's head and continued the onslaught. At the other end, Tatenda Taibu was ticking the score along very nicely until he vigorously tried to play a risky reverse sweep off Michael Clarke and was struck in front. Umpire Benson had no doubts to give the decision. Slowly but slowly wickets tumbled at regular intervals but a quickfire 20 from Elton Chigumbara helped them to get over the 130 mark.

Australia Innings: 132/6 20 Overs (R.Ponting 39, M.Clarke 37 C.Chibhabha 1-4, K.Dabengwa 1-24)

Captain Prosper Utseya opened the bowling with left-arm otherdox bowler Keith Dabengwa and Tawanda Mupariwa. Utseya knew he needing quick wickets and the fielding had to be spot on. And that is how the first wicket fell for the Australians. Adam Gilchrist tried to run a short-ball to 3rd man but a spectacular catch at 2nd slip from Tatenda Taibu denied that and Zimbabwe struck first blood. However, the Zimbabweans' luck was short lived as skipper Ponting and Michael Clarke settled in and batted for 10 overs ticking the score along nicely. Utseya went for 6 bowlers to get either of the pair out. Requiring 50 off the last 7 overs would have been a stroll in the park for the Aussies. Finally, skipper got skipper as Ponting held out to Gary Brent at mid-off as the partnership was broken. But Andrew Symonds came to the crease and smashed a rapid 31 to get Australia within touching distance of victory. Requiring 31 off 3 overs, Utseya took a gamble and brought on Dabengwa. He bowled a perfect maiden over. Zimbabwe looked favorites now. Even Brad Hodge tried his best and failed. The Aussies had chocked when it mattered most. Now their chances of progressing into the Super Eights are in jeopardy.

The man of the match award went to Michael Clarke. Zimbabwe gained 2 points and Australia gained 0.
