New Zealand vs Ireland, 36th Match, Super Eights at Providence, Apr 09 2007 - Match Result

The bearded Vettori comes up with a yorker to wrap up a big win. Full, quick and on the middle and off stump line. It beat the hurried waft and rammed into the front boot. It would have pegged back the middle stump. NZ win by 129 runs.

Ricky has a query: "will Vettori be on a Hat-trick for the next NZ match, since he did not get to bowl a 3rd ball to get it in this match?"

Nope. It doesn't carry on to the next game.

This is Sriram Veera signing off. Coming up tomorrow: South Africa v West Indies. Hopefully, it will be a cracker of a contest. Join us then.

castled. McCallan goes down the track and yorks himself as Vettori pushed that one through quick. The ball goes under the bat and he must have heard the death rattle. Although it appeared that he didn't hear it as he was trying to get back into the crease. He saw the damage and walked back to the pavilion

on the off stump line, nudged to the on side

arm-ball, goes on straight after landing outside off stump, jabbed away to the off side

spins in from outside off, nudged to short third man

flighted, on the off and middle, defended on the front foot

quickish, outside off stump, beaten trying to run it down to third man

lands on the off and middle, spins down the leg side, tries to sweep and it runs off the pad

turned to square-leg, McCallan backs up a touch too much but gets back in time

quicker, fuller, on the leg and middle stump line, turned away past square-leg

Taufel agrees this time. Drifts in the air, lands on the middle stump line and straightens. Gillespie thrusts his left leg across and gets in a tangle as a result. He is unable to bring the bat around his front pad and is struck in front of the middle. Plumb.

on the off stump line, driven to cover

on the middle, worked to the on side

huge shout for lbw. not given by Taufel. That's close. Drifts in from round the stumps, goes on with the arm to strike him in front of off stump. It was crashing into the furniture. Taufel must have thought it must have hit him outside off stump

spins from outside off, defended on the front foot

full, worked to midwicket

Done in by the pace. Patel fires that one in, lands outside off stump, turns in and Johnston is surprised by the pace. The bat comes down late and in an angle at that and he is caught in front. It would have taken out leg stump.

flighted up, Trent waltzes down the track and drills it through mid-off. Misfielded and he will get a boundary
