PCA WIN BUT A SCARE ALONG THE WAY​

IW: Wow what a game of cricket we have had here. Ups and downs and a few scares along the way.

DL: Great game, some great bolwing and some great batting.

IW: What about the end of the PCB 2nd innings?

Another PCA wicket goes down, they are making hard work of chasing down74!

DL: Well i thought that Suren batted extremely well, and his 65 no at the end was well worth it. Mr Sloan the number 11 also batted very well, hitting 30 off of 65 balls before finally being dismissed by Chez Spin.

IW: What did you make of the bowling performance by PCA?

DL: They bowled extremely well especially Matty Parker the right arm swing bowler. He was a constant threat throughout the game and deserved his 7 wickets. Chez backed him up well with 3 wickets. Zorax also bowled a consistent line and length and Brett bowled extremly fast.

IW: Here is the scorecard for the PCB 2nd innings

IW: This gave PCA a total of 74 to get and they made hard work of it.

DL: Yep everyone would have been thinking well they should do it easily but the PCB bowlers caused some trouble. Nic Davies was the first to go for a 3-ball-duck, then Sarvesh was out for 18, and Barrow followed in quick sucsession. But Jack Teague held the innings together with a well made 31. Woosah following up from his 145 in the 1st innings made only 10, but mathurs came in and made sure of victory with 8 off 9 balls, sealing the victory with a big six.

IW: What about the bowling?

Jack Teague in full flow!

DL: Lee Payne bowled well with 2-24, and Manraj and Bilal also took a wicket apiece. If there had been a bigger target i think PCA would have been in trouble.

IW: Well here is the scorecard confirming PCA's 6 wicket win.

MAN OF THE MATCH AWARD​

Nasseur Hussain: Wow what a great game of cricekt we have had here over the last 5 days. Tension had been mounting to see what Planet Cricket would be like. We have definately seen some great performances. Suren's defiant innings of 65 off 250+ balls. Woosah's magnificient 145, saving the 1st innings of PCA. Lee Payne for getting 5 wickets in the game. Ben Ferguson's 81 and Rox's 91. But the decision was down to our Sky Sports viewers, and it was an extremely tight decision between 2 people. Matt West for a superb knock of 119 and then 4 wicket for 8 runs, was magnificient but the winner tonight is Matty Paker for his consistent bowling. I would like to invite him up onto the stage.
What a game for you Matty, you consistently troubled the batsmen and got your just reward.

MP: Well yeah everything was just clicking for me, i was running up perfectly and was getting the perfect line and length.

Matty Parkers Pitch Map

NH: What did you make of the pitch, were you suprised the amount of swing you got.

MP: Well yeah on a shirtfront you expect to be hammered but we all bowled well and got the reward.

NH: How can you see Planet Cricket developing?

MP: Well we've got another 2 tests and 5 ODI firendlies before we fly to Bangladesh in our first proper outing and then we have got the ICC Champions trophy which we are looking forward too.

NH: Well thank you Matty Parker, you are today's Sky SPorts man of the match. You get a check worth ?1000 pounds and a bottle of magnum champagne.
Thank you to all the viewers out there for voting and e-mailing us your comments. Join us in 2 days time for the beginning of the 2nd PCashes.

 

[Left_Hander]

Well done PCA on a deserved win. Should be interesting to see if we can bounce back
