260 on the cards I think. Anything short I will be gutted.
 
Would have been great if JK scored a ton there. Good presentation though. I'm more of a neutral supporter. Hope Dhoni gets out though, can't stand him scoring.

MS Dhoni was a disappointment for Centurion Lions, just couldn't pick out the bounce. Although Faf du Plessis scored more then a run a ball at the other end, the team may as well feel they fell from a potential extra 20/30 runs.

MSD, what have you done?! Great innings from Faf though. Anticipated more runs off the final 10 overs but that's how it goes. Just hope that our bowlers can defend the target.

Sim said:
So we are here for the fourth time! My greets go to all who are ready to watch this thriller between two of the greatest sides in South African Premier league season 4, we have seen some really fierce battles through out this tournament I also have the former South African wicket keeper Mark Boucher next to my seat, well Mark we have watched some great games in this season, from the top class batting to some of the top class bowling, but later on it comes to Centurion Lions in 4 times a trot in the finals and Bloemfontein Bears who have really came as a surprise package in this season, who do you fancy to get this title?

Boucher said:
Well both are very good teams and picking a specific winner would be an insult to any of these teams who made it to the final stage, but when you look at Centurion they have all the stars that a team needs, filled with plenty of experience, from a experienced perfect Kallis to a really well built youth player in De Lange who is improving really quickly and that has been the key for Centurion through out this season. But then there is Bloemfontein, yes they don't have big names like Centurion Lions do, but they have one of the best bowlers in the world if not the best in Saeed Ajmal who has been taking wickets for fun, he would be a nightmare for Centurion in this game I reckon, and then there are is the trio that has got Bloemfontein Bears this far in: Duminy, Guptill & Shakib these three made a team that looked like wooden spoon contenders as a title contenders and that is going to be a worry for Centurion Lions, I am sure even they know that, but to finish up my last say would be that Centurion might just edge this one, but Ajmal may have some other ideas I don't know.

Sim said:
Yes I definitely agree with some of the points you made there, and I can see this being a thriller like the last three seasons, great to have you here Mark thank you for your very useful views for this final.

Its time, its finally time for the toss and down there near the beautiful stadium we have a face of Nasser Hussain, who will do the toss for this final time in this season. Over to you Nasser!

Nasser Hussain said:
Well thank you Sim, good morning ladies and gentlemen, now before we get going on the toss, lets first get the two danger men of this season here.

Nasser Hussain said:
I will first like to have a few words with my fellow country man in pacey Steven Finn of England and Bloemfontein Bears

Nasser Hussain said:
Well Finn, there were few fingers raised when this Bloemfontein side got you in the window, what was your mind going through then?

4VSovwP.png

Steven Finn said:
Well nothing much, I just set out there and play my normal game like I all ways do, I tend to ignore what happens outside of cricket as that could become a disruption to my career and I would not like that to happen, I always think positive going into every game as it is important for the team to do well.

Nasser Hussain said:
You have been getting the wickets and it clearly has had a great influence to your season this time around, now that you have made it to the finals what would be going around in your head, would we see any thing new?

Steven Finn said:
I'll just take this like a normal game because the word "final" can really change the situation of the game in a harsh way, I will just play my normal game and not try anything new, hopefully that will become the positive factor for this game.

Nasser Hussain said:
Thank you Finn, now it is time for Centurion's danger men, and who else can it be other than the Sri Lankan batsman Dilshan. You have been in great form lately, what has been your biggest secret behind this success of form?

TM Dilshan said:
Well it is one of them funny games, sometimes its your day and sometimes it isn't, and for the good form I had my days
*Just weakening the English here.*

Nasser Hussain said:
How does it feel like to be in such a big team like Centurion Lions? This is their fourth time in a row they made it here.

TM Dilshan said:
It is a great feeling, I would thank the support staff of this club that put positive mind set on us going into every game and that is why we are in the finalists for the fourth times in a row.

Nasser Hussain said:
Thank you Dilshan I hope you good luck for this game.
.

And now it's toss time, I have the two captain beside me, Jacques has the coin.

*The coin flicks in the air as it is blended by the lightning of the sun.*

Shakin al Hasan said:

Nasser Hussain said:
Shakib calls it heads,

*Lands heads on a hard patch of the ground*


Nasser Hussain said:
And heads it is, well Shakib, you have won the toss, what would you like to do first?

Shakin al Hasan said:
We'll bowl first.

Nasser Hussain said:
Any reasons for that?

Shakin al Hasan said:
No, not really, I just think chasing the target later on is a easier job and you'll know what your chasing and at what run rate you will need to score the runs.

Nasser Hussain said:
Any changes in the side at all?

Shakin al Hasan said:
No, we will be going the same thanks.

Nasser Hussain said:
Thanks Shakib, now Jacques your team will bat first, what would've you done?


Jacques Kallis said:
I too would have bowled first, I reckon the pitch has good movement on it for the last few games we had here at Newlands, and it has been great for the opening bowlers finding that early movement, but sadly it wasn't meant to be and now we have to concentrate on our batting.

Nasser Hussain said:
This is your teams fourth time in a row to stand on the final turf, but for you your second time, you won it last year with your former club Cape Town, what do you think of this time?

Jacques Kallis said:
Well it's hard to call it this time, but I think the toss might have been the crucial bit of this final.

Nasser Hussain said:
Any changes in your side?

Jacques Kallis said:
No, we are happy with our current side and I and rest of our team and staff think this XI has the perfect balance.

Nasser Hussain said:
Thanks Jacques, so Bloemfontein Bears have won the toss and have elected to bowl first. Over to you Sim.

Sim said:
Well thank you Nasser, so it is time now to go down there for the live action where Bloemfontein Bears will bowl first while the Centurion Lions will bat first, this is going to be a cracker so sit back and enjoy a final full of madness!

Alviro Petersen was the first victim of Steven Finn as he failed to trouble the score. The bowl was way too hot to handle for Petersen as it touched the edge of his bat and floated in to Puttick's hand comfortably, he was not dropping that as Alviro Peterson serves a golden duck on a final.

After that early fail by Alviro Petersen, Dilshan and the skipper Kallis stuck together a great partnership as things finally started to shape up for Centurion Lions after getting onto a worst ever start to the match, the partnership has carried 51 runs thus far and the pace of the inning hasn't been great either, but it is Kallis who has let his arms go free on all of the bad deliveries.

Centurion Lions continued to ride away the total to a 113 with just 1 loss of the wicket, but it was Jacques Kallis who brought up a 50 with a boundary in a long wait of 80 balls he faced. Whilst he is cruising on his 54, at the other Dilshan is knocking on the door for his 50, he looked rusty with the bat thus far and he sure does not want to lose the temper of his slow pace start that he is not use to.

First it was Jacques Kallis who scored his 50 freely, but after just 2 overs it was the opener Dilshan who made his way to a 50 also, however his 50 held down the gears for Centurion's innings which meant there was lots of pressure on Kallis at the other hand who was starting to press on the accelerator. Kallis will hope that Dilshan will start to keep up with him now. as we are mid way through the first innings.

Jacques Kallis was extremely unlucky after getting runout on one of the best shots in the game a classic straight drive which was well stopped by Robin Peterson, his bullet arm and accuracy had the job done for Kallis's innings, the run out also involved few football skills from Robin Peterson as the ball came full speed towards him he quickly flicked the ball up by using his feet getting it into his hands and knocking down the stumps, the process took some time, but it was all icing on the cake for Robin Peterson. Jacques Kallis couldn't finish his final South African Premier League appearance with a 100 as the tears went down Kallis's, he will make sure his bowling can also put him in a good position to hang the helmet up on the wall.

It took just 2 overs after drinks for Centurion Lions to take the big fish wicket of JP Duminy who looked to threaten, but not for too long as he was caught out by some brilliance from De Lange who stopped a six from hitting the boundary and getting it back on home land to catch JP Duminy out.

It was all happiness for Marchant de Lange, his second wicket couldn't have come at a better time, Steven Finn was clue less with the pace he was facing and was soon gone by the top edge which du Plessis just manage to get his hands on by the well timed jump.

Sim said:
So we are here for the fourth time! My greets go to all who are ready to watch this thriller between two of the greatest sides in South African Premier league season 4, we have seen some really fierce battles through out this tournament I also have the former South African wicket keeper Mark Boucher next to my seat, well Mark we have watched some great games in this season, from the top class batting to some of the top class bowling, but later on it comes to Centurion Lions in 4 times a trot in the finals and Bloemfontein Bears who have really came as a surprise package in this season, who do you fancy to get this title?

Boucher said:
Well both are very good teams and picking a specific winner would be an insult to any of these teams who made it to the final stage, but when you look at Centurion they have all the stars that a team needs, filled with plenty of experience, from a experienced perfect Kallis to a really well built youth player in De Lange who is improving really quickly and that has been the key for Centurion through out this season. But then there is Bloemfontein, yes they don't have big names like Centurion Lions do, but they have one of the best bowlers in the world if not the best in Saeed Ajmal who has been taking wickets for fun, he would be a nightmare for Centurion in this game I reckon, and then there are is the trio that has got Bloemfontein Bears this far in: Duminy, Guptill & Shakib these three made a team that looked like wooden spoon contenders as a title contenders and that is going to be a worry for Centurion Lions, I am sure even they know that, but to finish up my last say would be that Centurion might just edge this one, but Ajmal may have some other ideas I don't know.

Sim said:
Yes I definitely agree with some of the points you made there, and I can see this being a thriller like the last three seasons, great to have you here Mark thank you for your very useful views for this final.

Its time, its finally time for the toss and down there near the beautiful stadium we have a face of Nasser Hussain, who will do the toss for this final time in this season. Over to you Nasser!

Nasser Hussain said:
Well thank you Sim, good morning ladies and gentlemen, now before we get going on the toss, lets first get the two danger men of this season here.

Nasser Hussain said:
I will first like to have a few words with my fellow country man in pacey Steven Finn of England and Bloemfontein Bears

Nasser Hussain said:
Well Finn, there were few fingers raised when this Bloemfontein side got you in the window, what was your mind going through then?

4VSovwP.png

Steven Finn said:
Well nothing much, I just set out there and play my normal game like I all ways do, I tend to ignore what happens outside of cricket as that could become a disruption to my career and I would not like that to happen, I always think positive going into every game as it is important for the team to do well.

Nasser Hussain said:
You have been getting the wickets and it clearly has had a great influence to your season this time around, now that you have made it to the finals what would be going around in your head, would we see any thing new?

Steven Finn said:
I'll just take this like a normal game because the word "final" can really change the situation of the game in a harsh way, I will just play my normal game and not try anything new, hopefully that will become the positive factor for this game.

Nasser Hussain said:
Thank you Finn, now it is time for Centurion's danger men, and who else can it be other than the Sri Lankan batsman Dilshan. You have been in great form lately, what has been your biggest secret behind this success of form?

TM Dilshan said:
Well it is one of them funny games, sometimes its your day and sometimes it isn't, and for the good form I had my days
*Just weakening the English here.*

Nasser Hussain said:
How does it feel like to be in such a big team like Centurion Lions? This is their fourth time in a row they made it here.

TM Dilshan said:
It is a great feeling, I would thank the support staff of this club that put positive mind set on us going into every game and that is why we are in the finalists for the fourth times in a row.

Nasser Hussain said:
Thank you Dilshan I hope you good luck for this game.
.

And now it's toss time, I have the two captain beside me, Jacques has the coin.

*The coin flicks in the air as it is blended by the lightning of the sun.*

Shakin al Hasan said:

Nasser Hussain said:
Shakib calls it heads,

*Lands heads on a hard patch of the ground*


Nasser Hussain said:
And heads it is, well Shakib, you have won the toss, what would you like to do first?

Shakin al Hasan said:
We'll bowl first.

Nasser Hussain said:
Any reasons for that?

Shakin al Hasan said:
No, not really, I just think chasing the target later on is a easier job and you'll know what your chasing and at what run rate you will need to score the runs.

Nasser Hussain said:
Any changes in the side at all?

Shakin al Hasan said:
No, we will be going the same thanks.

Nasser Hussain said:
Thanks Shakib, now Jacques your team will bat first, what would've you done?


Jacques Kallis said:
I too would have bowled first, I reckon the pitch has good movement on it for the last few games we had here at Newlands, and it has been great for the opening bowlers finding that early movement, but sadly it wasn't meant to be and now we have to concentrate on our batting.

Nasser Hussain said:
This is your teams fourth time in a row to stand on the final turf, but for you your second time, you won it last year with your former club Cape Town, what do you think of this time?

Jacques Kallis said:
Well it's hard to call it this time, but I think the toss might have been the crucial bit of this final.

Nasser Hussain said:
Any changes in your side?

Jacques Kallis said:
No, we are happy with our current side and I and rest of our team and staff think this XI has the perfect balance.

Nasser Hussain said:
Thanks Jacques, so Bloemfontein Bears have won the toss and have elected to bowl first. Over to you Sim.

Sim said:
Well thank you Nasser, so it is time now to go down there for the live action where Bloemfontein Bears will bowl first while the Centurion Lions will bat first, this is going to be a cracker so sit back and enjoy a final full of madness!

Alviro Petersen was the first victim of Steven Finn as he failed to trouble the score. The bowl was way too hot to handle for Petersen as it touched the edge of his bat and floated in to Puttick's hand comfortably, he was not dropping that as Alviro Peterson serves a golden duck on a final.

After that early fail by Alviro Petersen, Dilshan and the skipper Kallis stuck together a great partnership as things finally started to shape up for Centurion Lions after getting onto a worst ever start to the match, the partnership has carried 51 runs thus far and the pace of the inning hasn't been great either, but it is Kallis who has let his arms go free on all of the bad deliveries.

Centurion Lions continued to ride away the total to a 113 with just 1 loss of the wicket, but it was Jacques Kallis who brought up a 50 with a boundary in a long wait of 80 balls he faced. Whilst he is cruising on his 54, at the other Dilshan is knocking on the door for his 50, he looked rusty with the bat thus far and he sure does not want to lose the temper of his slow pace start that he is not use to.

First it was Jacques Kallis who scored his 50 freely, but after just 2 overs it was the opener Dilshan who made his way to a 50 also, however his 50 held down the gears for Centurion's innings which meant there was lots of pressure on Kallis at the other hand who was starting to press on the accelerator. Kallis will hope that Dilshan will start to keep up with him now. as we are mid way through the first innings.

Jacques Kallis was extremely unlucky after getting runout on one of the best shots in the game a classic straight drive which was well stopped by Robin Peterson, his bullet arm and accuracy had the job done for Kallis's innings, the run out also involved few football skills from Robin Peterson as the ball came full speed towards him he quickly flicked the ball up by using his feet getting it into his hands and knocking down the stumps, the process took some time, but it was all icing on the cake for Robin Peterson. Jacques Kallis couldn't finish his final South African Premier League appearance with a 100 as the tears went down Kallis's, he will make sure his bowling can also put him in a good position to hang the helmet up on the wall.

MS Dhoni was a disappointment for Centurion Lions, just couldn't pick out the bounce. Although Faf du Plessis scored more then a run a ball at the other end, the team may as well feel they fell from a potential extra 20/30 runs.

And Lonwabo Tsotsobe takes the last blood of Bloemfontein Bears, it was an easy catch for du Plessis of Ajmal at the slips. And the trophy has returned to Centurion and Super Sports park, Centurion Lions are champions of South Africa again!

Code:
That will be the match
Centurion Lions were in control most of the time and deserved this victory

Thats all the cricket for now

 
CENTURION LIONS      259/4     50.0 overs
BLOEMFONTEIN BEARS   188       41.0 overs
   
Centurion Lions won by 71 runs
  
Man of the match: Jacques Kallis

And Jacques Kallis the master of cricket, possibly the best all rounder we may have seen to have played the game says his good byes by holding the trophy and the man of the match award.

Dah! We could have done better there, particularly after a great bowling effort. Being a finalist is a no mean feat anyway. Disappointed but they were always the better team from the start.


Oh, there are no "tea breaks" in ODIs, Sim. It should be 'Drinks Break'.
 
^Oops, cheers for that. Btw I was surprised your team made it this far! Not a team that is filled with stars and getting to the finals is really a job well done by beating Cape Town Warriors to it.

Great to see that the man of the match trophy is same as the tournament trophy :p
