Australia Rap Up The Tail
Australia rap up the tail in just 15 minutes after the lunch break. In the first over after lunch Manraj Bahra was out playing the ball on to his stumps. And then S.Tait dismissed Cricket60 and Pak Cricketer in successive deliveries. All Stars are all out for a modest total of 103. Lets hope they will do some magic with the ball.









These are the All Star's Scorecard and Australian Bowling.
