Commonwealth Bank Series, 2006/07 / Scorecard

Commonwealth Bank Series - 9th match

England v New Zealand

New Zealand won by 58 runs

ODI no. 2490 | 2006/07 season
Played at Western Australia Cricket Association Ground, Perth (neutral venue)
30 January 2007 - day/night (50-over match)


New Zealand innings (50 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
L Vincent	c Dalrymple b Plunkett	76	181	111	7	0	68.46
40.1 and the change does the trick! An easy chip to midwicket, dolly catching practice for Dalrymple, really, short in on the legs. Smart captaincy from Flintoff 219/5
SP Fleming*	lbw b Plunkett	15	28	14	3	0	107.14
4.6 full and swinging in, Fleming caught in no-man's land and it raps him on the pad but looks for all the world to have got a thin inside edge to that. If he didn't then it was plumb ... the umpire has no doubts 32/1
PG Fulton	c †Nixon b Plunkett	15	19	19	1	0	78.94
8.5 full and on off stump, Fulton looks to drive, gets a thin edge and Nixon does well to take a low catch tumbling to his right 53/2
LRPL Taylor	c Panesar b Collingwood	71	117	81	7	1	87.65
33.3 good bowling from Collingwood, the slower ball, a legcutter and Taylor sails that up to long-on (his hand coming off the bat) where it's Panesar... and can he... oh, Monty makes that catch look easy! Ah, it was. Nevermind, he's cool in collecting it and cool in celebrating - pointing a finger up in the air, as if to say who da man 190/3
CD McMillan	st †Nixon b Panesar	11	25	12	2	0	91.66
38.3 gone this time! Tidy work from Nixon and Panesar gets the wicket he deserves, McMillan down the track to get after Panesar and misses completely. Panesar sets off in his endearingly lost-in-his-own-world celebrations, skipping and whirring his finger around 213/4
JDP Oram	not out	54	64	33	3	4	163.63

BB McCullum†	c Strauss b Panesar	19	19	18	1	1	105.55
43.6 "Catch, catch, catch!" suggests Nixon and Strauss obliges, taking that running forward and carrying on a few steps with the momentum. McCullum was going leg-side, it was too wide, so he had to adjust on the off-side. Good cameo nevertheless 246/6
JEC Franklin	c Plunkett b Tremlett	9	13	8	0	0	112.50
46.3 length ball and tries to clear mid-off, but Plunkett at long-off, running backwards, holds on for a relatively easy catch 268/7
DL Vettori	not out	11	19	7	1	0	157.14

Extras	(lb 12, w 22, nb 3)	37

Total	(7 wickets; 50 overs; 233 mins)	318	(6.36 runs per over)

England innings (target: 319 runs from 50 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
EC Joyce	run out (Vincent)	66	120	82	7	0	80.48
27.3 from Vettori, GONE! Attempted quick single, but Lou Vincent, at mid-on, picks up one-handed and under-arms at the non-striker's end! Brilliant fielding, and that's the end of a very good innings 136/4
MB Loye	c Fleming b Franklin	15	22	17	2	1	88.23
4.5 good response from Franklin and gets the edge this time, snapped tidily at first slip. Loye was tempted to drive that and he's a victim of the angle across him once more 27/1
IR Bell	c Fleming b Patel	31	62	42	3	1	73.80
18.6 oops! A very tame dismissal, just a regulation chip through midwicket, and Fleming stoops low to clean up. New Zealand have their breakthrough, and Bell wanders off metaphorically kicking himself 99/2
AJ Strauss	st †McCullum b Vettori	12	30	20	0	0	60.00
25.1 brilliant cricket from New Zealand! Vettori saw Strauss coming, and threw in the quicker ball, down the leg-side. It actually went straight under Strauss's legs as he advanced, and McCullum pulled off a blinding unsighted take, and whipped off the bails! 123/3
PD Collingwood	c Fleming b McMillan	17	33	30	1	0	56.66
32.6 done him! and that was the reward for five excellent deliveries. Collingwood tried to improvise a boundary, got down on one knee to shovel the ball over fine-leg, but instead lobbed a catch straight to the fielder! 156/5
A Flintoff*	b Vettori	13	32	22	0	0	59.09
35.2 bowled round his legs! Flintoff stepped across his stumps to work the ball into space, but didn't make contact! Oh dear. Captain, your ship is sinking 162/6
JWM Dalrymple	c Franklin b McMillan	14	34	21	1	0	66.66
40.4 and a tame shot brings a tame end to a tame innings. On a good length, flopped over the covers, but not hard or high enough to beat James Franklin. And that is very jolly nearly that 184/7
PA Nixon†	c Oram b Bond	49	68	47	2	2	104.25
49.6 short, swung into the leg-side, Jacob Oram dives forward and clings onto a blinder! And that is a suitably anticlimatic end to another desperate performance 260/8
