Glen McGrath - 3/29 a top effort

Ok the South Africans are all out for 106 collecting 6 ducks in their innings with Andy Bicheal finishing with 5 wickets for 19 runs. :D

LOL - They killed them, kind of made South Africa could pretty pathetic there.

[Wiggo]

Well that's it. Australia slaughtered the South Africans. :thumb:

ME Waugh not out 55
+AC Gilchrist b Pollock 8
RT Ponting b Klusener 33
DR Martyn not out 6
Extras (lb 1, w 1, nb 3) 5

Andy Bichel gets "Man of the Match" and we jump to 2nd on the table with the extra 1 point bonus for achieving the target inside 40 overs. :thumb:

Australia didn't even last 20 overs? how crap is that?

what, we won?!?!? HOW CRAP ARE THEY?!?

*does little dance* go aussie, go aussie, go go go aussie...

actually, i watched a bit of each innings.. was a pretty pathetic effort by SA...

[Albinus]

Another point is that the Kiwis are pretty cluey at playing Shane Warne, the Proteas have no idea - one dismissal last time they played here reminded me of that Mike Gatting dismissal by Warnie - an absolute classic

[Albinus]

And I would have hated to pay for a ticket and got this one-sided game - the match was a sellout :(

[Olie]

lol
it was a rather short match

nice and fast :D

I agree Albinus. I the game I went to at the MCG the other week went for the full 50 overs.

[Albinus]

One of the best games I went to was a Sheffield Shield match between QLD and TAS at the 'Gabba. This was about 4 years ago, and Matthew Hayden hit one Tasmanian bowler for 18 runs off his first over... IN A TEST MATCH!!!

He scored his 3000th SS run that day, and scored almost 200 at nearly a run a ball - including one big 6 that almost went into the top stand at the 'Gabba :eek:

Albinus I reckon you and I can get all these non-Aussies into cricket yet, what do you think?

[Albinus]
