An aggressive display of batting from the Sri Lankans took them to 254 in just 46.1 overs but unfortunately they were bowled out before they could play their entire quote of 50 overs. It was the partnership between Mahela Jayawardene & Aravinda de Silva that set the platform for a big total on the board. Aravinda scored 65 in just 46! Jayawardene also scored 65 from 95 while the Sri Lankan Captain, Arjuna Ranatunga contributed 59. Ajit Agarkar took 4/42 while Harbhajan Singh took 2/34. A wicket each for Srinath, Kumble & Robin Singh. Sri Lanka have got a good score on the board. Can they defend it and stay alive in the tournament?

Sachin Tendulkar scored yet another half century scoring 78 but he did not receive enough support from the other batsmen apart from Ajay Jadeja who scored 47. Sri Lankan pacers bowled well upfront as Vaas & Wickramasinghe took 2/41 & 2/42 respectively in their 10 overs each. The rest of the Sri Lankan bowlers got wickets at regular intervals and kept it tight as India fell short by 28 runs. Sri Lanka are alive in this tournament!

That will be the match
A very close match indeed, but in the end the Sri Lanka bowlers contained the India batsman, to grasp victory

Australia were in all sorts of worry at 120/6. Inspite of a good start provided by Adam Gilchrist who scored 55, they lost wickets at regular intervals. However, Michael Bevan with Shane Warne put on an unbeaten stand of 109 to take Australia to 229/6 in their 50 overs. Warne played an excellent knock of 44 constantly rotating the strike while Bevan did what he does the best. Trying to anchor the innings and ending with a late flourish as he scored an unbeaten 75 from just 86 on a tricky surface! Daniel Vettori took 2/24 while Wisman took 1/43 gives an impression that spinners are going to thrive on this surface. Can the Australian spinner repeat what they did in their previous encounter? Or will the Kiwis save their pride?

And it's Matt Horne once again that stands tall for New Zealand under dire circumstances! Horne scored an unbeaten 104 while Twose carried his good form from the previous game as he scored an unbeaten 33-ball 44. Craig McMillan also scored 47. With spinners just bowling 11 overs one can question why wasn't more spin used on that surface. Shane Warne bowled superbly taking 1/24 from his 9 overs while Tom Moody got 2/41 from his 10 overs. New Zealand are out of this tournament already but they will surely cherish this win!
Code:
That will be the match
A very close match indeed but in the end the New Zealand batsmen managed to overtake the total
They made it with just 14 balls to spare
Thats all the cricket from Sharjah

We will take this loss as a learning experience. The finisher & Warne played really well. We will improve our batting. @Khan Sahab54
 
Wow what a performance. Not bowling Macmillan in the previous matches was a big mistake. Tbh thought his knock was a terrible one, but Twose finally perfomed while Horne has easily been our best batsman

@Manish.
 
Btw will you guys mind me doing re-runs of simulations (which won't be posted ofcourse) for giving you guys better matches. This is just my first List-A league and the ODIs are obviously complex formats as compared to red-ball tournaments.
 
I had to come up with this idea since there are almost too many low scoring games and it's been a snooze fest for the most part with a lot of one-sided encounters.
