shows his class as he drives this over the cover point fence to go to his ton and the victory to the Cobras and the Man of the Match award all in one
Dolphins vs Cape Cobras, at Cape Town, Nov 06 2009 - Match Result
Cape Cobras won by 6 wickets (with 28 balls remaining)
takes the single out to the mid wkt sweeper leaving himself 4 runs for his tons and the Cobras needing 2 for the win
goes for the big one but doesnt get it and it runs up to long on
flat bat over the umpires head lands marginally short the straight boundry
leans back as he did earlier but this time it goes all the way over extra cover and into the crowd
pulls it round to mid wkt and Ackermann grounds the chance that was offered
no contest as he leans back and lofts it over extra cover, a joy to watch
going back into the crease as Hall is up there yet again, cannot get it past extra cover this time round
goes across the line to his favourite cow corner, all along the ground to one that was pretty full
quick single into the comvers, Cobras looking well in control here with Gibbs playing with much freedom
stodd still and dug it up to long off
whips this thru mid wkt and deep square leg chased hard but even the dive couldnt do the job to save it
