wellsy 0 Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 (edited) Australia in the 5th and deciding ODI have set South Africa a mammoth target of 434 to win! Amazing! Ponting smashed 164 off 105 Hussey smashed 80 off 51 for a total partnership of 141 in 16 overs! Gilly got 55 off 44 Symonds 27 off 13 Katich 79 off 90 In the dying overs Telemachus, who had bowled 6 overs for 34 before his final spell just kept bowling no balls at the death, which didnt help! Some amazing cricket today and Smith must be cursing his verbal battle with Australia especially after calling us chokers after winning the 4th ODI. Oh and to top it off they were 2-0 up in the series.... oh well. If only he could back it up like Punter can... maybe he can having just seen his side win.... Now i just need Newcastle to beat Man Utd tonight... Edited March 12, 2006 by wellsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable. 105989[/snapback] You're telling me! I still cant believe it but i will put it down to one of them freak things that i will never see again in my life. Was some superb batting from both sides as much as i hate to admit it especially by one G. Smith! Bad week of sport all round, Newcastle lost last night, Australia lost in the most freakish fashion, Western Australia lost to Victoria in the Shield giving Victoria the place in the 4 day final! 1st test starts this week though, cant wait!

Slugsy 0 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 It was quite amusing (not for an aussie mind) at one point in the game when they put up on the big screen the fact that Lewis had become the most expensive bowler in the history of ODI's.

Happy Face 29 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I don't follow cricket. What's an average ODI score? Just a £5 spread bet on either team not reaching 200 runs would have cost over a grand. Ouch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
