Best connects alright but it's down to deep midwicket! Big swing, and not enough power on that to carry it over the rope, Coulter-Nile judges it well under the lights. Australia have sealed this 5-0.
Australia vs West Indies, 5th ODI at Melbourne, Feb 10 2013 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Voges is the Man of the Match: " I think new players bring fresh energy. It was also great for Marsh and Haddin (he's not new) to get an opportunity."
Watson: "We held our nerve. Voges was absolutely amazing. They were cruising along at one stage and I knew they will take risks at some stage. I'm very excited to get on that plane to India."
West Indies won't be on that plane back home yet. There's the T20 at the Gabba on Wednesday. Their last chance to salvage a win in what's been a miserable tour. Do join us for that. Thanks for your company today. Cheers!
slower ball and he swings and misses, Australia are all but through
Best wanted to smash that over the on side, instead it lobs to the off side, can';t connect well
is that game over yet? It's a slower ball, back of the hand, Sammy makes room and swings, thin edge down to Haddin
Sammy's not done yet! It was a full delivery wide outside off, he made room and smashed that over long-off
Roach tries to swish this away as well and it's a slower ball, swings and misses
shuffles across and Roach tries to clear midwicket but miscues it, no fielders there
makes room and bashes another full delivery down to long-off
this one skidded through and beat the bat as he tried to cut, Haddin fails to gather it
makes room and crashes a full delivery down to long-off
that's a nasty yorker! Sammy lost his balance and fell over at the crease, managed to flick it to the on side
shuffles across and he gets hit on the pads, too quick for him
hits the leg stump! Narine backs away and exposes his stumps going for the straight hit, Johnson fired that full on the stumps, hits the top of leg, WI eight down
backs away and he drills a full delivery down to mid-off, disappointed he couldn't put that away
targets that boundary again! This was short and he swiveled and pulled this one along the ground to fine leg, 30 off 15
he gets a boundary this time! This was short from round the wicket, stayed at the crease and clubbed it in the air and just wide of deep square leg
Sammy stays back at the crease and just slaps it between mid-off and cover but not good enough for a four
yet another dot ball! Narine doesn't offer a shot this time, maybe wants to leave the hitting to his captain
that's a yorker length which he drills down towards cover, can't do much with that
ODI Cricket: "The rumours of my death are greatly exaggerated. How entertaining is this?!"
stays on the back foot and punches it to the off side
