Australia vs New Zealand, 2nd Match at Hobart, , Jan 14 2007 - Ball by Ball Commentary

thats the end of that! Symonds tosses it up invitingly outside off stump, Patel gets a half-stride forward and lofts it down the ground high, high in the air, and Hilfenhaus at long-on squints against the sun and gets under it, holding a neat catch to round off a comprehensive Australian victory

tossed up outside off stump, and the No. 11 just picks that up and slams it over mid-on for four

fullish on off stump, flicked to midwicket, no chance of a run

quicker through the air, and full outside leg stump, Gillespie looks to flick but the ball dips on him and he falls over in the shot

fullish delivery on leg stump, he gets forward and flicks it away to backward square leg for a couple more

looped up on middle and leg, Gillespie kneels down and sweeps it away to fine leg for a brace

spinning down leg stump, Patel shuffles and tries to dab it fine, but leg byes are signalled

quicker delivery on the stumps, Patel gets right behind and defends it solidly

and like Johnson a few overs ago, he picks up one with his first ball! Looped up out of the back of the hand, its the wrong 'un, and Franklin, looking for the spin, drives across the line and ends up with a leading edge to Clarke at a shortish point, and Australia are now a wicket away from victory

tossed up outside off stump, and Gillespie presents a quite impressive front foot defence to that delivery

bowled 'em! Gives it some air, rolling the fingers over it, but it comes out faster than Bond expected, and he plays all over it as the ball quickly slides between pat and pad and disturbs the furniture

gives it some more air on off stump, and its flicked to mid-on

flattish outside off stump, driven to the offside and Symonds fields himself

good length delivery outside off stump, Bond comes on the frontfoot and shoulders arms to it

tossed up outside off stump, driven to cover

back of a length just outside off stump, Bond defends away from his body and the outside edge runs along the ground to third man, looked like he may have intentionally played it late with the open face, but who's to say, its a tail-ender, after all

slower ball, on a fullish length on off stump, and he drives back to Clark

good length on middle and leg, he flicks around the corner out to Hilfenhaus at fine leg for one

as the run rate soars, Vettori chances his arm but holes out to deep square leg! Clark drops one in short of a length on middle and leg, and Vettori swivels and chips it off the pads in the air out to deep square leg, where Hayden, moving from a deepish mid-wicket, covers ground and holds a relatively easy catch

good length outside off stump, he stands and goes fishing, just wafting the bat at it
