yorker to finish this one off. Big win for Warriors, and well deserved too
Warriors vs Victoria, 6th Match, Group A at Gqeberha, Sep 13 2010 - Ball by Ball Commentary
That's all from us for tonight. Hopefully, unlike yesterday, it won't rain in New York. We have a men's singles final to get over with. Thanks for joining us. Cheers
Presentation
David Hussey "We started slow,didn't we? We need to regroup and play our A game in Jo'burg. We didn't execute our skills well, but full credit to Warriors."
Davey Jacobs is the MoM. He says: "We are very happy with the win. Crowd is always with the band, so it's fun. I am sure there will be a big crowd in on Saturday. Yeah, the second catch was a bit of a TV thing, the first one was better."
What a show. Another favourite side has fallen in the Champions League. Right from the first over, Davey Jacobs has been all over Victoria. With the bat, in the field, with the bowling changes. He will surely be the Man of the Match, and because he is the captain too, it means I have one interview fewer to transcribe
high full toss, keeps it down for a single
that's the dying flicker! Makes room and lofts this over length ball over long-on. Clean
full ball, bunted to long-on for one
wide down the leg side
another yorker, will get a single
yorker, gets two because it is softly hit to long-on
Ntini to finish off
almost all over, scoops this towards long-off but it bounces short of the fielder. End of another good spell for "Rusty" Theron
gets an edge but can't beat short third man
full toss, hit to extra cover for a single
gets a single to point
full toss, and it has been guided past short third man
there is some atmosphere at St George's Park. Band is playing, songs are being sung along, the home side is winning. Joy to the world
full ball, driven into the off side
full into the pads, worked away for another single
goes deep into the crease and works this for a single
driven down to long-off for another single
slow, slow offbreak, beats him outside off
flicked around the corner, but short fine is very fine
and another one bites the dust! Hastings gets too under this attempted six, and it kisses the sky before landing in Kreusch's hands at long-on
Botha to bowl now
meanwhile, as an aside, another single taken
Trevor Chesterfield has spoken like the true football-hater I met in Sri Lanka earlier this year. "Football songs in the crowd?" he asks "Where's the security. Throw them out. Disgraceful"
