Central D vs Victoria, 8th Match, Group A at Centurion, , Sep 15 2010 - Ball by Ball Commentary

Aaron Finch, take a bow. Bracewell has missed his yorker length by a foot at max, and Finch gets under it, lofting it over long-on. Just clears his front leg and sends it sailing over Michael Mason. How cool he has been through this high-pressure chase. Never panicked. He is not going mad celebrating even now

good comeback from Bracewell, nice nice yorker, just a single to long-on. He is getting swing too

fuller, dragged to deep midwicket, just a single

Bracewell has bowled a length ball, Finch has swung too early, and the edge has bisected the keeper and short third

have CD dropped the match?, this was a full delivery, flicked towards fine leg. BMK Patton took the risk, charging in for it, not contend with keeping them down to one, and just couldn't make it despite the dive. Got fingers under it, but couldn't hold on. Ends up giving two

slower ball, pulled between long-on and deep midwicket, easy two

smartly bowled, sees McDonald charging at him, and bowls a nice sharp bouncer. Valuable dot ball

punched square, gets a single to sweeper-cover

almost a collision between the batsmen as they are coming back for the second, after the pull shot finds the gap between long-on and deep midwicket

and Finch has coolly, nonchalantly lofted this into the grass bank behind extra cover. Beautiful shot too

full and slow, driven to sweeper-cover for one

and again he misses the yorker and bowls the juicy full toss down the leg side, Finch clears short fine easily

another yorker, only a single to long-on

slower-ball yorker, McD can't make contact, and there is no bye despite Weston's fumble

perfect yorker, dives to his right too, but can't prevent the single

poor, poor start after a good three-over spell, starts with a gentle full toss on the pads, with the fine leg up, easy four runs there

another big hit, just when it seems it is going out of Victoria's reach. This time from McDonald who shimmies down the track and lofts a shortish delivery straight down the ground - high, very high, and just short of the sight screen

another slower ball, well bowled again, good deception, dragged to deep midwicket for one

lovely bowling there, sees Finch back away, and bowls a wide yorker

those are lucky but valuable runs for Victoria. mason bowls short, Finch swings, gets a top edge that goes lobbing over short fine

nice slower ball, has to be very late change-up because Finch changes his shot too late, and hits it limply back to the bowler

sees McD charge at him, bowls short, concedes a single to sweeper-cover
