Australia V Sri Lanka 2nd ODI.

[Twizzle]

We will be watching Punter's run on replays for years to come.

It should make the sports new tonight, worth watching.

It was a brilliant peice of fielding to get to the ball on the full streatch dive, but to get up and have one stump to aim at then hit it, was pretty amazing.

Twiz can u keep up the live scores sum1 switched the tv ova wile i was chekin live scores in the SA/QLD game

Looks like McSharkie is our commentator for today, and doing a good job.

 

[Macca]

After he fielded the ball (brilliantly) he got up and had time to run a few metres before underarming it into the stumps. He really kept his composure. After it though he was pretty excited. That one play certainly changed the complexion of the game.

 

[Macca]

Jayawardena caught by Ponting at mid off. Clarke was the bowler. He got 38 off 61 balls. Sri Lanka now 3 for 195 off 38 and a bit overs.

 

[Macca]

This wicket is a real belter I think. Sri Lanka have only picked one quick in Chaminda Vaas. Symonds, Clarke and Hogg are doing a fair chunk of the bowling and doing it well. Harvey, Lee and Gillespie have bowled the rest. Lee has bowled 7 no balls and a wide. Pretty ordinary from him, he's also going at 6.5 per over.

 

[Macca]

3 for 205 off 40 overs. The fire works look like they are about to begin.

 

[Macca]

The crowd looks as though they have been watching footage of the Carribean crowds. Instruments are being played, people are dancing and everyone has a huge white smile. Looks like a fun place.

 

[wittyz chick]

good job McSharkie plz keep it up...what was Punters catch normal or like the Tendulkar one???
Whos being most economical? (thats only if u know)

 

[Macca]

3 for 212 after 42. Looks like they will get about 260+.

 

[Macca]

Ponting's catch was regulation. I'll let you know the bowling figures when they next show them.

 

[Macca]

Bevan takes a catch at long on to dismiss Sangakkara for 39 off 58. Harvey picks up the wicket. Sri Lanka 4 for 218. Kaluwitharana is the new batsman.

 

[Macca]

Gillespie 7 0 36 0 (2w)
Lee 6 0 39 0 (7nb, 1w)
Harvey 8 0 34 1
Symonds 10 0 45 1 (1w)
Hogg 8 1 25 0
Clarke 4 0 22 1

after 43 overs.

 

[Macca]

As you can see Hogg is having a good tour so far.

 

[Macca]

Kaluwitharana run out by Hayden for 0. Pretty good fielding, Hayden dived picked up and threw all in the same motion. Stupid run. Sri Lanka now 5 for 220.

Chandana the new batsmen.

 

[wittyz chick]

GO HOGGY!!!
we really dnt need MacGill wid Hoggy bowling like this

 

[Macca]

Clarke just picked up Chandana caught behind for 4 off 6 balls. Sri Lanka are now 6 for 225. Russell Arnold the new bat. Sri Lanka have lost 4 for 33 in their last 40 odd balls.

 

[Macca]

Clarke just bowled Dilshan for 11 off 18. Sri Lanka are now 7 for 226. Gee this pitch is dusty, it won't be easy chasing 240 odd against 4 spinners. Vaas is the new batsmen. Clarke has 3 for 25 off 6 overs.

 

[Macca]

7 for 231 off 47. Ponting is sticking with Clarke and Hogg to bowl out the overs. It's starting to rain though.

 

[SirShire]

Very tight from Hogg and Clarke. Nice to see Clarke get amongst the wickets.

 

[Macca]

Lee just took a catch at Long off to dismiss Vaas for 5 off 5. Clarke was the bowler, thats his 4th wicket.
