00:00Barbarossm's got very quick feet, four runs nicely played, edged again and this one
00:13again will race to the boundary, this one off the bat of Barbarossm, short, oh that was close
00:20pulled away and race into the boundary, yeah but he just wants a little bit more
00:25they'll be desperate to get the ball in the same condition they want to come back for two they are
00:32good running, nicely works, a little bit of width, slightly short that's all in four runs
00:44paddles out of way, runs off the face, four runs to Barbarossm
00:53that's what that man is, there's no one else out on the leg side, there's no man on the sweep
01:03he's not quite 45 either to stop the paddle
01:06good shot, doesn't take much for him to find the middle of the bat and get it racing away along this
01:17fast outfield, big ground that doesn't matter, oh into that leg side, just over
01:24and on this sort of pitch even Barbarossm finds it difficult to time that just over
01:34but for a moment Australia thought they were in, I think that was David Warner
01:46another test 50 for Barbarossm
01:56played well he's got a lot more to go too
01:59this might go for four
02:14down the leg side and we've seen this a couple of times where he just missed the
02:22keeper as well, it's all the way to the fence
02:27four runs so he's got some pad on that and 32 to 2
02:35that's gonna race away, not quite as an intentional as he's done a few times
02:41already, he's gonna be bowling there soon he wants it nice and flat too
02:46back of the square on the offside nicely played by Barbarossm, chases on for Cameron Green
02:51into the shadows, just look at this bowling now from Nathan Lyon
03:01he's getting a little bit of bounce occasionally and quite a bit of turn
03:05these two guys seem to be playing quite comfortably that's because they spent so
03:08much time in the middle, oh there's bonus runs
03:15Kawaja, saves that from going into the toe of Lyon
03:26beautiful shot
03:31he's pulled it, got the gap and it's raced away to the fence, so Barbar now six away
03:40he goes for the sweep, up and over, the Lyon roars and what a way to bring up his century
03:49it's taken 21 innings, the king is back and the king is back in style
03:57Barbarossm take a bow, 101, what a fine knock this has been, the crowd is on
04:04their feet, the gallery is on their feet
04:09and so are we
04:14a little bit leg side, you've probably heard the call in the start mic of two
04:17from Barbarossm, comes to the back for a couple
04:25it's a friendly freebie to start proceedings that's put away for four
04:32and another one that's put away as well so back to back boundaries to go so
04:36that's going to be a little bit of a confidence dent for Swepson
04:42little paddle around the corner off the blade just eased four more runs good
04:47work it's not a shot that he plays often but he's played it successfully a few
04:50times in particular once when he got his hundred
04:54a full pass again
04:59and just got a couple of runs but Nathan Lyon settled in and been testing
05:06Barber I think
05:09that's a beautiful shot my goodness that is a beauty
05:13right out of the middle that blade this shot
05:17in particular that well elegance at its best wow just the
05:24hands just a clean strike
05:29squeezes that out looks to come back for the second
05:35comes to be home all that hard work just goes down the brain that's a
05:41beautiful shot yet again you said it so many times throughout the innings
05:45every shot that he plays is immaculate
05:51eases it leg side Barber Rasm with a masterful 150
05:59captain courageous has stepped up and is still looking for more
06:04classy to say the least it's been regal from Barber
06:11gone down it's hit that very well good enough and got to the length of the ball
06:17just to get it over the top lovely bit of work that
06:21it's so good too certainly not a slog by any means
06:27now some fine born as the chaser he's quick he's going to get a bit of a dive
06:32in i'm sure yeah does extremely well and three the
06:37results eight wickets
06:41oh what a good shot that is down the ground uses his feet
06:47solid shot advancing he said that beautifully that is a fine strike
06:52and coming back to my point i suppose now 180 runs to win
06:5834 overs to go we'd seen in 2020
07:04more runs four of them is it off the bat yes it was off the
07:10bat
07:14lovely batting it was there to hit but he's not going to miss out either he is
07:19such a good player less issue now with these two they play
07:25spin really well so the lengths have to be spot on otherwise
07:30you're going to travel
07:34oh cut away that might race away as well the crowd go for him again
07:39just beats the fielder four more to barbara asim
07:46appear has he gloved at all barbara asim four runs short of a elusive double
07:53hundred
07:56what an absolute pleasure has been watching barbara asim
08:01a high class innings if ever there was one
08:05captain walks back four short of what have been a double
08:11century of the highest order
