Warne to Read,
no run,
oh dear, Warne makes Read look very, very silly here. Very silly indeed, but it's not Read's fault - this pitch has plenty of moisture and Warne could turn it on marble. This lands on leg and spins past the off stump. Enough said.

58.1 |
Warne to Read,
1 run,
short and wide and Read smacks it to McGrath who is, well - let's be honest - very, very, very slow indeed to react and they steal a single
|
58.3 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
short again, big turn but Read can't time his back-foot drive
|
58.4 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
oooh and Read is in two minds here! Wonderful flight from Warne, above Read's eye line who comes tentatively forward
|
58.5 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
and the first googly of the day which, I reckon, Read reads (sorry) - defended solidly
|
58.6 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
wonderful legbreak on middle-and-leg, turning away from Read who, to his credit, just pulled his bat inside the line. Just. Just...

Warne to Read,

|
60.1 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
hugely short, turning prodigiously away from Read who cuts it into the ground
|
60.2 |
Warne to Read,
1 run,
Read pulls this, tennis-style, back past the bowler - to his left - and they scamper a single to mid-off
|
60.4 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
lovely bowling! Turning away from Read's forward defence who looks back down the pitch as if so say "what did I do wrong?"
|
60.5 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
better from Read, going back and angling this into the gully
|
60.6 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
too short and wide, spinning wider still

|
62.1 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
ooh and it's on leg stump, Read shimmies down the pitch and almost gets into a tangle before defending it out into the covers
|
62.2 |
Warne to Read,
no run,
outside off this time and Read leaves alone
|
62.3 |
Warne to Read,
1 leg bye,
but this one is outside leg, too wide and Gilchrist blots his copybook once more today by failing to gather it
|
62.6 |
Warne to Read,
OUT,
on off stump, Read flays it straight to Ponting - who was in very close at short extra cover - who took an excellent catch. It was the big, juicy "come and get me" from Warne; outside off, tempting Read, and he couldn't refuse - but he was off balance, spooning the ball airborne
