full toss outside off, driven firmly to cover where it's misfielded to give the Redbacks a heart-stopping win!
NSW vs South Aust, at Adelaide, Oct 22 2008 - Ball by Ball Commentary
South Aust won by 4 wickets (with 1 ball remaining)
It was Khawaja who misfielded, after last over he made an incredible save on the boundary line.
Brilliant game of cricket all round. Tait or Bird for man of the match. For mine it's Bird, changed the direction of the match when the Redbacks appeared to be cruising.
Tait has been awarded man of the match after a scintilating five wicket haul in the first innings.
It's been a great game of cricket, I hope you enjoyed CricInfo's coverage of this Ford Ranger Cup game. Another final over result!
Join me, Andrew Fuss, again on Friday for the clash between Western Australia and Tasmania at the WACA from 3pm AEDT. Goodbye for now.
Pressure on the new batsman, Mark Cleary. Didn't do particularly well with the ball, can he redeem himself?

flicks over mid wicket, falls just short of deep mid wicket
tries to do the same thing again, but gets it a bit straight, and long on takes an easy catch
fullish length, down on one knee, slog sweeps over mid wicket, fearsome strike of the ball
Brilliant spell from Bird. If the Blues win, he's man of the match.
