driven on the up back to the bowler
South Aust vs Queensland, at Brisbane, Dec 03 2008 - Ball by Ball Commentary
The players are leaving the field now with the dark clouds encircling the ground. Some serious thunder and lightening in the skies and the ground staff have made a good call to bring the players off so that they can cover the pitch before the storm hits!
Match State: Delay
It's all over here, The Bulls have been awarded this match courtesy of the Duckworth/Lewis System by 59 runs
The Redbacks will be very disappointed with their allround effort. Their middle order failed to capitalise on the start courtesy of Klinger and Younus and their bowlers simply lacked penetration.
The Bulls on the otherhand will be very pleased with their efforts, particularly their fielding where they picked up three run outs. James Hopes was outstanding with the bat and had a hundred in his sights before chipping out to long on.
James Hopes has been named Man of the Match for his 75 off just 61 balls and his spell with the ball was very good as well with 2-24 off 8 overs. A deserved recipient for Man of the Match, that's for sure!
On behalf of all the crew here at cricinfo, thanks for joining us this evening for the latest Ford Ranger Cup match which saw the Bulls get up by 59 runs (D/L). This is Marc Ellison saying all the best and goodnight
