00:00:01The young Australian leg-spin genius, Shane Warne.
00:00:05India's batsmen are used to leg-spin, and if they can safely negotiate Warne's ten-overs,
00:00:10then I believe this could be India's day.
00:00:13What a prospect it all is, therefore, and I, for one, can hardly wait for it to start.
00:00:18Now, without further ado, let's go straight out to the middle
00:00:22and see what Glenn Turner has to say about the pitch.
00:00:25Thank you, Henry.
00:00:26Actually, my fingers are twitching this morning because Shane Warne's going to be playing today.
00:00:31And, you know, I used to bowl a few leg-breaks as a kid, and I bowl quite often, mainly because I was captain.
00:00:36Shane Warne has got the ball mostly to skid on the cricket, and he's done the damage with the flipper
00:00:41rather than the leg-spinner from turning from leg to off.
00:00:44But the reason for that is that this pitch so far has had quite a sheen on it,
00:00:49and therefore the ball is skidded through.
00:00:51As the tournament goes on, it's meant to rough up a little bit and grip more and take turn.
00:00:56But I don't expect that to happen today too much, and therefore it's going to be a batting paradise again,
00:01:00and even you, Henry, I think could score runs out here.
00:01:03Glenn Turner on the ball as usual, and now it's the toss.
00:01:07Let's go straight back to Simon Reid and the two captains.
00:01:11You decided to bat?
00:01:24Yeah, we've tried bowling both other times, and so we've had enough of that, we'll try batting first this time.
00:01:29Any idea what the target you're looking for?
00:01:31Oh, I think looking at the other games, anything over about 230, 240 is something they can get.
00:01:36I'd like to get 250, but I'll see how it goes, you know, it depends on how we can play.
00:01:41Is Tim May still out with his thumb?
00:01:43Tim May's still out, the thumb's still a bit sore.
00:01:45He can borrow all right with it, but it might impair his fielding, so we've left him out.
00:01:48And Michael Slater's the 12th man.
00:01:50Okay.
00:01:51Arthur?
00:01:52So you're going to have to chase?
00:01:53Is that a problem for you?
00:01:54Yeah, we really wanted to chase today as well, because we've not done very well batting first.
00:01:58I mean, both the games you see, but I think it's a good opportunity for us to really chase,
00:02:03and try and restrict them as quickly as possible in the inning, but I think we'll definitely try and chase in a better way.
00:02:11Any changes to the team?
00:02:13We're playing Venkates Prasad in place of Finder thing, that's all about it.
00:02:16No extra spinner?
00:02:17No extra spinner.
00:02:18No extra.
00:02:19Okay.
00:02:20Have a good game.
00:02:22So Australia leave out Tim May, who has a cracked thumb.
00:02:25Michael Slater replaced by Mark Waugh.
00:02:27David Boone will open the innings with Mark Taylor.
00:02:32India make one change.
00:02:34Gupinder Singh goes out, in comes Venkates Prasad.
00:02:37No place for the left arm spinner, Raju.
00:02:40Let's go down to the boundary now, where Henry has Sunil with him.
00:02:44Thank you, Simon.
00:02:45Well, today I have with me the Indian temporary acting manager, Sunil Garazkan.
00:02:49Now, Sunny, I want no bias in your comments today, please.
00:02:52This is a very exciting semi-final.
00:02:54What are your views?
00:02:55Yes, it is an exciting semi-final.
00:02:57Obviously, the side that plays good cricket, good common sense cricket, as I've been saying, is going to come out on top.
00:03:04And I'm hoping at the end of the day that it is the Indian team.
00:03:07And you're confident that the Indian team really can pick themselves up after that rather heavy defeat by Pakistan.
00:03:13Yes, I think the nature of one day cricket is such that, you know, you forget one match and you go on to the next match without really worrying too much about the previous game.
00:03:22I think that's what's happening with the Indian team.
00:03:25The two days that I've spent with them, they are very confident.
00:03:29Well, I won't ask Sunny which side he thinks is going to win.
00:03:31The action is about to start.
00:03:33So let's go upstairs and join Iftikhar Ahmed and Glenn Turner.
00:03:37Thank you, Henry, and good morning, good afternoon or good evening depending on where you are in the world and watching.
00:03:45The first semi-final about to get underway and we expect another thriller today.
00:03:54Taylor the batsman.
00:03:58And the first runs of the very first ball, it's going to be four runs.
00:04:05Leg buys.
00:04:06Just bowling a little bit close in on the leg side.
00:04:09Flicking the pad and going fine enough to go for four.
00:04:12We also welcome all those viewers throughout the star region.
00:04:15And a test record.
00:04:23They'll take an easy single.
00:04:26Kumle the fielder going across from mid on.
00:04:35That's a wonderful mask, isn't it?
00:04:38Very exotic.
00:04:40David Boom.
00:04:41In this first semi-final in front of a much bigger crowd as compared to yesterday.
00:04:56Taylor facing.
00:04:58Marginal call there, I would have thought.
00:04:59There was no call at all, but the judgment from umpire Kanji.
00:05:03Maybe when it went past.
00:05:04A fair bit of work to do with the third umpire yesterday.
00:05:10That's a good delivery.
00:05:11Oh, that's a good delivery.
00:05:13That's a good delivery.
00:05:18from umpire kanji maybe when it went past it had a fair bit of work to do with the third umpire
00:05:26yesterday
00:05:37oh that's a good delivery did a lot off the wicket
00:05:43taylor gets too far across here but let's see the ball pitches outside leg stump it does
00:05:50may have hit off stump a little far across and those behind the wicket were quite enthusiastic
00:05:57and prasad was rather late with his shout he tended to be going up in support
00:06:02must give prasad some confidence they have delivery
00:06:10that's very wide and taylor flashes misses and that's a wide
00:06:19call a little late but uh that's one more thing
00:06:23a one more to a straight well it drew the shots and there was some sound there he must have just
00:06:34and that goal is played past this square leg umpire jadeja after it
00:06:38and they'll take two are they coming back for the third taylor will have to hurry and he's home
00:06:45he wouldn't have been home if it had been a throw that was spot on
00:06:50if that had hit or even been over the top of the stumps i think he would have been short
00:06:56so we'll watch taylor coming back for the second
00:07:03jadeja the fielder
00:07:07and look if that had been right on target it would have been very close indeed
00:07:11so it's 19.
00:07:22oh that's a fine delivery
00:07:24beats the bat and that ball hurried off the wicket as well moved away from him
00:07:29yes look at the movement here pitching leg oh too good for most people that one
00:07:34and we see taylor pushing down the original line being squared round and in the end i don't think
00:07:40he got two
00:07:46movement there away from the bat and taylor beaten
00:07:50i think is he's got the batsman defending as well
00:07:53and that's yes quite considerable consecutively in this over
00:08:02oh once again beaten
00:08:0819 for no wicket there's the fifth arrays
00:08:13this puts a lie to the fact that you only need to make one mistake as a batsman to get out
00:08:17this look how he's squaring around there taylor but he's anticipating the ball being
00:08:31so slip and a gully
00:08:34catching positions
00:08:40but it was too high and at the end of the over 22 for no wicket off six
00:08:47and that's it surely he got a nick on that not given
00:08:55oh and srinath gives him a piece of his mind i must say as if i thought there was a nick there
00:09:00we'll have to see the replay because the reaction of the wicket keeper and the bowler
00:09:04moment boone is beaten there srinath was not even bothering to turn back and see the umpire's verdict
00:09:11he was coming to make sure that they don't lose wickets and just see these new ball bowlers off and
00:09:19then try and launch the attack towards the end of the innings
00:09:27that's gone through
00:09:31and a better shot from taylor a bit more width there to work with it's first time
00:09:36really giving that width to the batsman shot delivery enough width for him to not only hit it hard
00:09:43enough but also to place the ball in the vacant region nicely placed shot intentionally played over
00:09:50the closing fingers that's not the way they've got
00:10:08taylor lost concentration there look to work in the way
00:10:11and it looked pretty straight it certainly ended up straight and he's gone yes i think
00:10:21that's the stump that's got locked out
00:10:24yes there it is a good line good length delivery
00:10:27play taylor playing all around and that's the very lucky to have some meal at hand to help them out
00:10:34and there seems to be a bowling change
00:10:43and it's a pretty good one for a wrist spinner six for 12 is best
00:10:47in the hero cup that was the hero cup final against the west indies at eden eden park
00:10:54edan gardens sorry edan park is auckland isn't it that's in eden gardens uh in 93 that was in november
00:11:10that's uh
00:11:13complete to boone he gave that a bit more air than he often does but again boone not really timing it
00:11:24but that certainly was a leg break but of course for the full
00:11:40we'll have a chance later playing it so people know exactly what this dreaded flipper is
00:11:45that was extremely well played there by war it was short and he went back opened the face and
00:11:54ran that beautifully just wide of slip for four that was a lovely stroke good improvisation
00:12:03he had enough time to play
00:12:15here's chauhan now to boone
00:12:22and that's well fielded there by as a routine
00:12:26first today just so it is thank you everything
00:12:32as a routine in fact is at backwards squarely
00:12:37oh that's a superb stroke by david boone using his feet making a bit of room for himself and hitting
00:12:43that right into the middle of the gap between extra cover and mid off the best stroke of the day so far
00:12:50as you can see there it was well flighted and he gave himself room and a beautiful extra cover drive
00:12:57looking down towards the members stadium it's a fine structure here in jarja
00:13:10jadeja there he is
00:13:11boone standing with his back behind his back toe
00:13:19and that's four more that again was a good shot boone played the stroke online it pitched about what
00:13:25middle middle and leg hitting through the ball so the second boundary of the over and these two are batting
00:13:33very well indeed against these two spinners they are playing very well henry at the same time one has
00:13:38to see that it's not at 15 overs and um very nice to have been cat with us and i'm sure all of you will
00:13:46be interested with these comments through these finals and uh after this first ball i shall make way for
00:13:54it's calm it is wearing those smart shirt today all sorts of colors it is
00:14:03and the run rate australians and to some extent they've got out of jail in those
00:14:08in those first 15 india dominating but not doing enough damage
00:14:16and the cuts misses
00:14:19and a shard of anguish let's watch it again the ball turning and uh boone missing
00:14:29just the stream of anguish from both keeper and the bowler
00:14:38that was missing the next time but that's one of kumbli's real weapons he bowls it just so much
00:14:44more quickly real place there and see it's skidding on could easily have gone off the pad onto the
00:14:51stumps a little high too but running down lakeside it's a real battle of whips going on here
00:14:5953 for one
00:15:00and boone is gone australia have lost their second wicket and india in control
00:15:16great bowling he sees him coming down the wicket look at this he charges it's a much quicker one he
00:15:21tries to cut it and two pins out of the three go over delight for india boone gone for australia
00:15:29important breakthrough for the indians and so taylor bull said in north 11 boom boom
00:15:39come with 21 walk not out 14 not unanimously so but we are seeing here a change in attitude from india
00:15:49at least in the field they're able to follow this through for the rest of the overs and then come
00:15:54out with the bat with the same determination it could be a different looking indian proposition for
00:16:00their opposition bowling change tundalkar coming on to bowl from the football ground end places to harm
00:16:09very useful bowler but what a marvellous first
00:16:24first ball he tries to cut misses
00:16:28first ball he tries to cut misses so
00:16:40in a way
00:16:41another single 60 for two australians will be able to collect
00:16:50and they go through for one more so three runs in three deliveries 61 to india
00:17:01should not just pour inside the circle was a long off and a long on
00:17:11cover there's a man up inside the circle at fine leg that's the only compromise
00:17:15he's had to make outside edge as it goes down to deep cover
00:17:30Mark Waugh is run out and it's 62 for three
00:17:34india certainly back into the game that morning bebanon strike tendulka the lower
00:17:47some more action there top edge tendulka gives him an old-fashioned look but it's four more
00:17:54yes you can't afford to do that and looks are not good enough you have to go well that was
00:17:59widish outside the offstand and with no slits Hayden as we have seen very good striker of the ball
00:18:14just a single for war they can't have a slog because they have the batting india have to
00:18:22really put pressure on them now that they have got themselves in such a good position
00:18:29too hard as he's proved throughout difficult to get away
00:18:37well they fancy it definitely heard something and long gear throws the ball down
00:18:46I must say I did think I heard a nick let's have a listen to it well certainly there's a sound there I'm sure we'll hear it again
00:18:56there it is and certainly from here with the reaction of the wicket keeper and that sound over there
00:19:04it definitely looks as the steam did have a top edge to it
00:19:12and long gear this was the band but also something because these are the two busmen and especially Steve
00:19:17for is the main one
00:19:25this could blaze bold four of his over so far
00:19:31something to me though will be better served if he comes out of goals later on maybe but
00:19:35at this time the Indians really looking to make a breakthrough rather than allow things to go as they are
00:19:48one more to war he moves on to 17 foundation again lots of happy spectators
00:20:04and let's have a look now at the prize money the peps
00:20:07the new fast bowler the field qualifying matches 500 semifinals 750 dollars and the final 1500
00:20:20and the city bank man of the series 3000 bucks 3000 of the best
00:20:30it's almost in over the tournament 2000 dollars and the shell best bowling performance 2000 dollars
00:20:35long live our glorious sponsors
00:20:40and that's a fine stroke that's four runs
00:20:43well that's Steve Waugh at his best we saw Boone play a shot like that earlier in the day
00:20:48when Chauhan was bowling from the other end
00:20:53that was a classic extra cover drive
00:20:59goodness I don't know I think Simon Reid's the chap that really should be for I think it would become him
00:21:05yeah
00:21:10yeah
00:21:14yeah
00:21:16yeah
00:21:19yeah
00:21:20yeah
00:21:26That is the wicket India were looking for, Bevan playing Kumbhle off his legs and a gentle catch there to square leg and so that is a very important breakthrough for the Indians.
00:21:41There you see Henry it was well tossed up and Bevan there instead of clicking it he just lobbed it into Nup behind the stumps.
00:21:51Give the ball to the spinners and finish their quota of overs.
00:21:58Serenac's goalie, lucky early on, did really well right the way through.
00:22:07Wicket of Taylor eventually.
00:22:11And he's got it!
00:22:14And that is the wicket India really wanted and Serenac has done it.
00:22:21And Steve Waugh, as we'll see here, trying to create a goal.
00:22:27It was an intentional stroke but I think...
00:22:30...three, one, five...
00:22:32There's the Indians aboard.
00:22:44Oh that's another fine stroke, this time it was a long half outside the off stump.
00:22:47It's four more, two splendid blows by Hayden.
00:22:54And aren't Australia fortunate to have a stronger batsman as this coming in at number six.
00:23:01Oh I believe Henry has had a tremendous record in Sheffield.
00:23:07Let's press out again to Hayden.
00:23:12Well that often happens when you hit them up, don't they, being seen on television.
00:23:15It never ceases to amaze me.
00:23:17Hello mum!
00:23:19Anyone think it was a Mexican wave, especially for the cameras?
00:23:23That's a slower one that he was aiming there to deep mid wicket.
00:23:30He got it off a finish edge through about second slip for four.
00:23:35Well that's the luck of the draw, isn't it?
00:23:39Three fours in the over.
00:23:41Two good ones.
00:23:42Wrong.
00:23:45And if he does that and learns from the experience, well, it's very worthwhile that he should be here.
00:23:50Vishen Bedi in the pink shirt.
00:23:53I think it's fair to say there's rather more of Vishen than there used to be.
00:23:56His shadow stretches further.
00:23:59Always cheerful.
00:24:01It's been out now.
00:24:07There to Langer and that one was a confident LBW appeal.
00:24:14And in fact the reason it was given not out was because the batsman hit the ball.
00:24:20Inside edge onto the pad.
00:24:2440 overs and at the last ten crucial overs they have to really concentrate.
00:24:37Shreen out to Langer.
00:24:41It's a good shot, it's gone for four.
00:24:43He had very little room to play that stroke.
00:24:45It was a sort of short-armed hook.
00:24:47He hit it awfully well.
00:24:49Well, Azaruddin, who must have been pleased with the way his seam bowlers, very much the Lidge pin, if you like it, of Pakistan's semi-final tomorrow against New Zealand, who beat Sri Lanka in that marvellous finish last night.
00:25:10Anil Kumbley has come back.
00:25:13Anil Kumbley has come back.
00:25:17Venkat Prasad's last over was very expensive and it's 184 for five.
00:25:23Kumbley to Hayden.
00:25:28Hayden.
00:25:29Hayden running the first as fast as he can to see if he can...
00:25:40Well that was rather a strange sweep there by Langer, but he got away with it, just chipping it over the head of Backwood Square Lane.
00:25:51Four marks to Australia for keeping the score.
00:25:57Big appeal for LBW.
00:25:59Dian Ash-Think missing leg stump.
00:26:01And, er...
00:26:04Langer really swept so furiously then.
00:26:07Just watch this, it's almost as though he was swatting a fly.
00:26:10I don't see how the umpire could have given her away.
00:26:14He was far down the wicket and missed the stumps anyway.
00:26:18Apart from that, everything else was alright.
00:26:27Bumble, spectator catch, into the ground.
00:26:30You enjoy umpiring, obviously.
00:26:36Well that's a long hop and that has got exactly what it deserves.
00:26:40Oh dear, the Indian bowlers are rather panicking under pressure in these closing stages.
00:26:45The Australians have been presented with too many free runs.
00:26:49It's the end of the over.
00:26:51The score now, 193 for five.
00:26:54The back, Ben Turner next to him.
00:26:58Now in the box, next door to us as we commentate.
00:27:03Ift, of course, enormous business tycoon, charge of singers.
00:27:09Lives in Hong Kong.
00:27:10Simon Reid behind me.
00:27:11He's the father of Oliver Reid, the film star.
00:27:13Who's come back now at the far end, replacing Srinath.
00:27:17And I think that may be quite a shrewd move by...
00:27:19Back from another end, to try and create slightly different conditions for him.
00:27:23That's right.
00:27:24And I think it's a very shrewd move from Sir Rubin.
00:27:25And I do hope that Vanktish Passat will be able to contain these horses who seem to be on the rampage.
00:27:30That's a good shot by Lange.
00:27:31What a good little player he looks.
00:27:32And they're coming back for the second.
00:27:33Hayden making use of his long strides.
00:27:34Really stretching out for that second run.
00:27:35Splendid cricket again by the Australians.
00:27:36You've got to hand it to them.
00:27:37Well, this particular partnership is really taking...
00:27:38... the way it is.
00:27:39I think it's a very shrewd move from Sir Rubin.
00:27:40And I do hope that Vanktish Passat will be able to contain these horses who seem to be on the rampage.
00:27:46That's a good shot by Lange.
00:27:49What a good little player he looks.
00:27:50And they're coming back for the second.
00:27:52Hayden making use of his long strides.
00:27:55Really stretching out for that second run.
00:27:57Splendid cricket again by the Australians.
00:27:59You've got to hand it to them.
00:28:01Well, this particular partnership is really taking...
00:28:05... precautions.
00:28:08And Reza should be thinking of how to stop the runs flowing and also get the wicket.
00:28:22Massad again from the football stadium end.
00:28:24I think that'll be a leg by.
00:28:29It is exactly what Vanktish Passat is doing.
00:28:32He's got to relax and he's got to try and think what exactly he's doing.
00:28:35And put the ball and give no wits to the batsman.
00:28:40It's in the air but Hayden has found the gap and that's four runs.
00:28:44That was a lovely whipped shot off his legs.
00:28:47He knew exactly where mid wicket was fielding.
00:28:50He hit it square of mid wicket for four.
00:28:53And that's brought up the 200.
00:28:55Backlis and Mac never sleep.
00:28:57Maybe she's not.
00:28:58That may be a bit unfair.
00:28:59Anyway, she's...
00:29:00Lovely.
00:29:01Anyway, a chance now to hand over a change in the box to Glenn Turner.
00:29:07Watch the first ball.
00:29:09It's an exciting blow.
00:29:13It was over the top but bounced in front of the field right there.
00:29:17A deep cover.
00:29:19And the width was there to play the shot.
00:29:22And India just letting it slip here.
00:29:24And that's a tremendous hit.
00:29:25Six.
00:29:26211 and the Australians now putting the pressure on and really consolidating here.
00:29:42The game swinging towards them.
00:29:44Well this is not such a bad ball actually.
00:29:46That's just a very useful connection there from Langer.
00:29:50He's whacked that over deep square.
00:29:52There's Indians, particularly the seamers, tended to drag it down too short in their second spell
00:29:57and were punished as a consequence.
00:29:59And now the game very, very alive.
00:30:02Australia making excellent progress.
00:30:07Another single.
00:30:10Are they?
00:30:11212.
00:30:13The Australians are getting a good total.
00:30:15As long as Australia...
00:30:17As long as the Indians reply well.
00:30:19Could be very close.
00:30:20The flight of Milan.
00:30:22213 for five.
00:30:23And Milan's coming comfortably.
00:30:24Look at that.
00:30:25Almost five.
00:30:264.9.
00:30:27That's another big hit.
00:30:28And it's up in the air.
00:30:29And could be a six of it.
00:30:30We'll have to wait for the signal from the...
00:30:31...the...
00:30:32...the...
00:30:33...the...
00:30:34...the...
00:30:35...the...
00:30:36...the...
00:30:37...the...
00:30:38...the...
00:30:39...the...
00:30:40...the...
00:30:41...the...
00:30:42...the...
00:30:43...the...
00:30:44...the...
00:30:45...the...
00:30:46...the...
00:30:47...the...
00:30:48...the...
00:30:49...fielder.
00:30:50It's a six.
00:30:51And...
00:30:52...Kumli...
00:30:53...being taken to task here.
00:30:54Just look at that hit.
00:30:56Well he's hit the length rather than the line.
00:30:59And Langer's showing here that...
00:31:01...he's got the ability of good eye.
00:31:04The ball wasn't all that loose.
00:31:06And once again he's been prepared to tackle his bowlers.
00:31:09And say, hey, I want you to bowl this particular field.
00:31:12Or what field do you want to bowl to, Langer?
00:31:15Into the block hole and played to mid-wicket.
00:31:18Just the single.
00:31:19Almost yachting there.
00:31:21And it swung.
00:31:22This is the Keurig.
00:31:23But...
00:31:24...quite a lot of swing there from Tyndalka.
00:31:26Langer facing.
00:31:28Oh!
00:31:29And...
00:31:30...they're going through for one.
00:31:31There's...
00:31:32...one out.
00:31:33Brilliant bit of fielding and thinking by Tandalka.
00:31:38And the sixth cricket is down.
00:31:41And this must be a big relief for India and Azhar.
00:31:45What a waste for Australia.
00:31:48But some sensational fielding here.
00:31:51He has to turn round.
00:31:52Change direction.
00:31:54And umpire Lamston didn't even call for the third umpire.
00:31:59Not needed.
00:32:00And so Langer goes for a great knock for him.
00:32:0336 from 24 balls.
00:32:04And 2-2-2 for six now Australia.
00:32:06Serious stages feel that they've had a tremendous mauling
00:32:10by their opposition.
00:32:11And yet they still come through and manage to be less mauled
00:32:14than they've made by to the Australians.
00:32:17I think India should try and keep Australia
00:32:20under the psychological mark of 2.50.
00:32:27Still five overs left.
00:32:29Down the wicket comes Hayden.
00:32:31He cracks it through the covers.
00:32:34The cover fielder there can't cut it off
00:32:36and he's gone back for his second.
00:32:41Comes down the wicket.
00:32:42It's up in the air.
00:32:43There's a fielder getting under it.
00:32:45And he's out caught.
00:32:49Jada Jada fielder.
00:32:502-2-7 for seven.
00:32:54And Hayden, the man that India wanted, is out caught.
00:32:58And the crowd in ecstasy.
00:33:00And back comes Hayden.
00:33:01The Australians have to watch it a little here.
00:33:03They've lost two in a row.
00:33:04Both batsmen who were in.
00:33:06Hayden trying to hit it onside.
00:33:08Ends up spooning it up.
00:33:10Going down to long off.
00:33:12And the man in your picture there, Jadeja.
00:33:15Taking a comfortable catch in the end.
00:33:18And look, we're trying to hit it onside there Hayden.
00:33:21And spooning it up.
00:33:23Jadeja just coming in to shot there and taking the catch comfortably.
00:33:27And so Australia.
00:33:28Right.
00:33:29That's right.
00:33:30It turned out to be the right move.
00:33:31And he's been able to do his bit.
00:33:32He's kept the batsman quiet.
00:33:33And that's brilliant.
00:33:34He's been able to run out of his.
00:33:35And that has changed the complexion of the game to a certain extent.
00:33:38Because at that particular stage I thought Australia would be scoring somewhere near 260, 270.
00:33:39And he has been able to work down the run rate.
00:33:40It's still a prestigious score.
00:33:41Looks like 250 at least.
00:33:42Run rate now.
00:33:43Moving up.
00:33:44One.
00:33:45One.
00:33:46One.
00:33:47One.
00:33:48One.
00:33:49One.
00:33:50One.
00:33:51One.
00:33:52One.
00:33:53One.
00:33:54One.
00:33:55One.
00:33:56One.
00:33:57One.
00:33:58One.
00:33:59One.
00:34:00One.
00:34:01One.
00:34:02One.
00:34:03One.
00:34:04One.
00:34:05One.
00:34:06One.
00:34:07One.
00:34:08One.
00:34:09One.
00:34:10One.
00:34:11One.
00:34:12He was lucky that Tendalker didn't gather quickly there.
00:34:14Because he could of been ran out at either end.
00:34:17Well, yes there was a chance that lucky that he even...
00:34:21Well just fourth of the two overs before...
00:34:23and he was getting taken apart at the end of his first spell...
00:34:38It's gone through, only a couple, to hand the fielder.
00:34:56The second spell has definitely done its better.
00:35:15They don't make use of it.
00:35:22The rush here, that's a direct hit, and there's going to be a replay.
00:35:36Looks very close, he's out.
00:35:41Jadeja it was, and a clean hit, and Rourne has to go.
00:35:52Here it is again, some excellent fielding all the way through from India.
00:35:59And another example, Jadeja strikes again.
00:36:04Well, it was a direct hit.
00:36:07And there, 240 for eight.
00:36:14It's at the last over.
00:36:26Gets that away from a single.
00:36:28Gets rifle on strike.
00:36:37He undid England on a couple of occasions as well.
00:36:40I'm sure he did in the last tour.
00:36:42I had a very useful partnership.
00:36:44He's going to move back quickly.
00:36:51Not that time.
00:36:53No replay needed.
00:36:55But that it was very close though.
00:37:08Looking back on it.
00:37:09Might have been a call for a television replay, but he was in all right.
00:37:13No, he was in all right.
00:37:14A bit of width to work with, but he doesn't take advantage.
00:37:27So really it means that...
00:37:29Tendulka it is.
00:37:44And he's made such an important contribution late on here.
00:37:50Didn't roll too well early on.
00:37:52Rifle flips it away.
00:37:56But Tendulka watches it closely.
00:37:59Made no mistake.
00:38:01Tremendous brigadier here is a good competitor.
00:38:04So, 243 for nine.
00:38:08The first to go.
00:38:11Boone and Mark Waugh digging in.
00:38:15But in the end, wickets beginning to go.
00:38:19Steve Waugh going on to make 53.
00:38:23Everybody getting in and then getting out lower down.
00:38:25Bevan, Hayden, just when he looked to launch.
00:38:28And Justin Langer coming in with a brisk 36 that changed things around.
00:38:32And then Srinath and Tendulka with his run out and his fielding changed things at the end.
00:38:38And the bowling.
00:38:39Well, three wickets for Srinath.
00:38:41And three for Kumble who went for 50.
00:38:44But Tendulka coming back well with his last three overs.
00:38:48Have a look at the wickets to four.
00:38:51The first was Mark Taylor who lived precariously and went to Srinath for 11.
00:38:57It was 29 for one.
00:38:58Next to go was Boone.
00:39:00And Kumble bowling to him.
00:39:02A rather indifferent shot from Boone.
00:39:04He goes for 21.
00:39:05At that stage it was 53 for two.
00:39:06Mark Waugh's next.
00:39:08And the two brothers here.
00:39:10Mark and Steve getting caught.
00:39:12And in the end Mark caught in no man's land.
00:39:15Set back.
00:39:16And the run out from Kumble Tendulka doing the business at the bowler's end.
00:39:21Mark Waugh going for 16.
00:39:22It was 62 for three.
00:39:23Here's the end of Bevan.
00:39:24Just not able to turn that round well.
00:39:27Jadeja gets the catch.
00:39:29And if we look at this down the line.
00:39:35Look how he tries to hit the ball around there.
00:39:37He doesn't play a leg lance in the normal fashion.
00:39:39By letting the ball come on.
00:39:40Rolling his wrists over it.
00:39:41And being content.
00:39:42Just to use by it with the orthodox shot Tendulka.
00:39:46He's got him away.
00:39:47It's running down to the square leg fence.
00:39:50But it'll be cut off just inside by rifle.
00:39:55There comes the return.
00:39:56And it's two to Tendulka who's off the mark.
00:40:01And it's seven for no wood.
00:40:04Well there should have been a long throw.
00:40:07Three here.
00:40:09And both players guilty of ambling through.
00:40:12And the assumption was I think Tendulka thought it was going to go for four.
00:40:16So he just ambled through.
00:40:17And they were not able to take a third when it was very much on.
00:40:24McGrath is going to go to Tendulka.
00:40:32Forcing a defensive shot out of Tendulka.
00:40:34One tends to anticipate that it takes a good delivery for him to defend.
00:40:40And McGrath too.
00:40:41Look.
00:40:423.7.
00:40:43See those are the important figures for me.
00:40:45How many runs per over.
00:40:47Four.
00:40:50Four.
00:40:56For four.
00:40:57He tried to pull it through mid-wicket.
00:40:58Got the edge.
00:40:59And it's gone for four.
00:41:01Well that's an interesting shot.
00:41:02That's an absolute miscue.
00:41:03Could have gone anywhere.
00:41:04anywhere Tendolka has tackled the shot over square leg that we've seen him play so effectively
00:41:09but McGrath just getting the added bounce with his height and he's no slouch either a bit of
00:41:15pace there and Tendolka fortunate there that it fell safely could have gone straight up in the air
00:41:21for the keeper
00:41:34some things to go your way it's an entitlement
00:41:36oh what a spectacular catch
00:41:45magnificent reflexes and India have lost Tendolka
00:41:51Tendolka attempting the same shot not getting a top edge this time but not controlling the shot either
00:41:58and he smashed that to short mid wicket and we know how good the skipper Taylor is in there
00:42:04and that's a big blow for India to lose
00:42:14that's through the covers a fine stroke could be four and yes it is four
00:42:2118 for one the crowd on their feet McGrath overtossing playing the penalty and today's
00:42:33a great young man see when they put him on do you think it will be first change or maybe later on in the
00:42:53I'll be surprised if he comes one change I think
00:42:55I'll be surprised if he comes one change I think
00:42:57Captain Mark Taylor will try and keep him
00:43:01as sort of delay his arrival on the goal increase as long as possible because everybody expecting him to come on to goal so are the Indian batsmen I will be surprised if he comes on to goal at one change
00:43:15I think
00:43:17yes the danger is I suppose that if they they do handle Warren well but if he does come on early and go off early the confidence is very high
00:43:27that's right I think that's one of the thing which Mark Taylor must be aware of because he knows that the place on the subcontinent play against this field very well
00:43:35and if it's been in particularly if the Indians are going to sort of not lose wickets and just go and play normal cricket then to bring Warren a bit late I think that may not serve Australia's cause
00:43:49it's very hot out there today probably the hottest it's been throughout the tournament there's a bit of breeze easier I think this afternoon than it was this morning
00:44:06yes and I think the heat is going to be more once the game really gets into swing and if the Indians start getting closer to target and that's when I think the heat will be really on
00:44:18let's go
00:44:37that was beautifully time
00:44:39last appeared off the hips the rifle there which is slightly short in jadeja
00:44:46timing it beautifully missing the outstretched hand of the diving fielder
00:44:55good stroke by jadeja
00:45:09it's like bevan flat out hayden i think in fact it's uh mark war
00:45:31he said he said four runs
00:45:50picked the gap beautifully and he's in sparkling form
00:45:54energy over 31 for one amendments were made this time by jadeja
00:46:01nothing to pierce the inside circle placing tendulka and really paying the penalty because
00:46:07that's what was happening and here with tendulka gone maybe jadeja and said
00:46:12will try and build in innings with ones and twos and an occasional four and that is crucial from
00:46:18indians point of view interesting to see him pouring the sweat away from his helmet
00:46:25for the indians it's hot here here steve war then taking over the pavilion
00:46:30i think it's a good ploy for mark taylor because he knows that on this wicket maybe
00:46:40the bowling likes of steve war has already got 152 wickets
00:46:44a very good economy rate yes it is trying and get the overs in quickly
00:46:55these days he's slightly more than a fifth bowler isn't he steve war but a lot of the time he has
00:47:00been a fill-in bowl and what other countries would love their fifth bowler to go for 4.4 oh yes that's
00:47:06absolutely right and i think with the already one looking down mark taylor must be thinking that if
00:47:13he can get in the state was few overs before the 15 overs restriction is removed
00:47:23this keeps a little low very well watched
00:47:25it's very well played indeed because if you wash the ball till the end because that ball kept really low
00:47:36it's very low
00:47:50it's good five long run for shane war and it's poor or more for jadeja
00:47:56and he's getting all the support from the crowd and encouragement here steve war just drifting a
00:48:05little bit onto the legs and jadeja instead of playing it wide in the sky that one was in the air
00:48:13clearly off the edge of the bat and langer put it down it wasn't easy he had a long way to go
00:48:19but that was a clear chance well yes it was a clear chance and uh he didn't get to it first he was going
00:48:26the wrong way
00:48:30well langer is just uh top gap we get away
00:48:37that comparison i didn't have time to give it to when it was on the screen onto a 13 over
00:48:42and that's a fine stroke again by jadeja timed it so well it's jolly nearly going to go for four
00:48:51chase for mcgrath he manages great
00:49:01just a photographer who has perhaps not been used to covering games of green absolutely right
00:49:12well yes as you see there henry
00:49:33see wall but he rarely sprays down the lakeside and he he straight down the lakeside and jadeja
00:49:41wheel and ball they're having a pretty good view
00:49:47and he's going to face the bowling and what a marvelous innings it's been
00:49:51he's played uh the shots on both sides of the wicket
00:49:56most of them in front so
00:49:57uh fine innings he's timed the ball sweetly picked the gaps well and after the departure of
00:50:05uh he's taken over the principal responsibility of keeping these four minutes
00:50:15it's now a third man and he's on 49. 73 for one
00:50:22the indians have made a good enough start where if they just play urgently and keep it ticking over and
00:50:27manage round fours and over that would do but neither one of these two want to hand it over to
00:50:33somebody else they're the incumbents at the wicket see they want 5.24 runs required
00:50:40it's not too bad they sneak along at fours for a while it probably get up to about six six and a
00:50:46half and that's easily manageable in the last 10 or 15.
00:50:50that'll be just a single shane warren returning from the deep
00:51:0374 for one jadeja on 49 and in anticipation the applause for him and he certainly deserves this
00:51:1350 should he get it it's really been a very good knock from him he's kept the scoreboard moving and just
00:51:19watch those who support him they're on their feet already
00:51:27deafening law and they've gone through for one and that's a 50.
00:51:33a superb innings and he deserves all the applause that he's getting 75 for one
00:51:42now what he has to say to himself is that's the beginning
00:51:47now i'll move through to 100 and then i'll win the game for india
00:52:01that's down the third man and one more 77 for one
00:52:16and that is our wagon wheel just to see where he scored his runs
00:52:23and there we go right-hander so down the left-hand side of your screen is the offside shots behind
00:52:28point eight 13 through the cover region and uh four straightest through let off they're pretty evenly
00:52:35matched there that's 25 on the offside and then 25 on the on they get a much more even spread than that
00:52:44so he plays well on both sides of the wicket plays straight but it's uh sedu at the moment on strike against fleming
00:52:57tries to pull that
00:53:00playing across the line of the ball
00:53:02showing a bit of impatience in the last two overs well this is dreadful it was wide of off stump
00:53:10and he left his feet where they were reached for the ball swung through it hit right across it
00:53:17and it could have gone anywhere including onto his stumps so mr sedu just needs to settle himself as
00:53:23worn as the captain rather taylor looks on he's fielding at mid-on
00:53:36a festive atmosphere here charger
00:53:38and that's a great job going to be four runs and siddu has decided it looks that he's going to go for
00:53:51the bowling and put the pressure on the australians 81 for one what a difference look at the full blade
00:53:57go right through the line of the offside where he's trying to hit the ball instead of the bottom hand
00:54:03coming in and hitting across it to the onside one of the world's best players has been to come next
00:54:09at azaruddin and then the bashers camply and bedadi
00:54:17in the back of the world's best players
00:54:29judging by that there's no reason why they should continue and
00:54:33get the runs but the thing that australia was batting
00:54:39they didn't have any target and they got the runs whereas indians they know that they have a target
00:54:44endos is beginning to improve now after a very watchful start
00:54:52that's carefully run down don't look about that
00:55:05when fleming
00:55:07building a slow one there and it was very cleverly placed by jadeja who saw the gap there
00:55:13in a diving my bag unable to stop the ball crossing the boundary line
00:55:20nicely placed there by jadeja
00:55:24flinging himself to his left all six foot six of him but
00:55:27when he can hardly watch it
00:55:34and that's a chase
00:55:34and that was a great save that is magnificent fielding excellent cricket
00:55:49beautiful shot played by jadeja there and this one certainly racing to the boundary in mcgrath diving and
00:55:57saving water
00:55:58and
00:56:13far and wide so many different cultures here that's another beauty of the city
00:56:18now another change of bowling
00:56:28symbol there for city
00:56:33he was getting a little frustrated by the end
00:56:35hoping for better things from here
00:56:52that's what a beautiful shot that was straight back straight follow through there it is
00:57:09perfect i think steve roe thought that probably the fielder on the middle of the
00:57:15a long off would stop it but certainly that beat that field it too
00:57:26single down to
00:57:28fleming steve picking up the boundaries as an offer but at the same time they're making sure that
00:57:35what the captain has ordered for keep the scoreboard moving by taking the signals that's what they're
00:57:39doing
00:57:40it's a little iffy but he gets away with it more work for fleming
00:57:47but they're finding the gaps and the runs are coming they're paying a lot of respect to shane
00:57:52maul but they're certainly picking up runs from the other end
00:57:57okay she could save and four more and steve war is having a nightmare
00:58:04and our india moving towards a place in the final here they're certainly now becoming the favorites
00:58:10as they certainly are the way they are batting these two
00:58:14are giving india what they have been lacking consistency and these two batsmen
00:58:21not only picking up the runs but also making sure his first ball on a test match to old trapper
00:58:26bowled to gatting that's warne's bowling analysis i'm going to go on with the story
00:58:30he pitched it a foot wide of the leg stump it turned across gatting and hit the outside of his off stump
00:58:35and gatting departed as if he had seen a ghost
00:58:40well there you saw the second and third test matches of england's current tour in the west
00:58:48indies and you were standing when ambrose blasted england out for 46 in that extraordinary last day
00:58:54in trinidad yes that's right i was standing as the umpire at the other end steve buckman was standing
00:59:03and uh did you see warfield warne fielding sorry shane warne was a magnificent spell
00:59:09oh that's a terrific blow straight back over the top by sidolf six runs well
00:59:19by jadejah in fact i gave that to sidu because that is sidu's characteristic that stroke but jadejah
00:59:25it was just watch him hit it
00:59:27timing again there was a superlative blow it was pure timing i mean it goes to show that six uh man like
00:59:41jadejah and sidu have now put on 110 rounds and he has worn in his sixth over to jadejah
00:59:49just the single there it's uh hayden matthew hayden deep on the cover boundary
01:00:01if anything short and wide he couldn't wait to get at that could he
01:00:10steve war at mid-wicket
01:00:11so there we have the worm the red worm is the australian worm and the yellow worm is the indian
01:00:21worm which is fighting at the moment a little bit of an uphill battle but it's not lagging behind
01:00:26by all that much
01:00:32trouble with playing that stroke by can is that if the ball is marked
01:00:40oh that's a lovely stroke it was the half volley hit back over warne's head and that is four of the very best
01:00:49did you see in that uh basket i find salty crisps make me so thirsty
01:01:04another good stroke there from sidu
01:01:09you know venkat this is good cricket because sidu is now a beauty oh it was a lovely shot
01:01:14well he's got away with it it wasn't it was meant to go straight it's gone out to um
01:01:24deep mid-wicket hayden is there and two runs to sidu a little bit too
01:01:29reckless perhaps for his own good
01:01:32raw's bowling analysis has one or two peaks that he won't like like and not enough troughs
01:01:37and here's steve war again to sidu
01:01:48away it goes again but
01:01:53in the air to start with pitched comfortably short of hayden quite a lot of golf henry off what's your
01:01:58handicap 11 11. i knew you i think you pay off up for about six don't you oh no
01:02:0811 that is really six and you take off take money off everyone no no it's the love these crowds
01:02:13they're so colorful and it's been there's justi mujahib the famous pakistani commentator on the left
01:02:20that's four runs that was a beautiful leg glance there uh jadeja just waiting for it turning his
01:02:31wrists on it and getting in the way fine for four and runs now coming at a great rate he played it so
01:02:40late didn't he just watch it he had complete control over it it's going to be glenn turner to take
01:02:49bank of dragoman's position and after let's just watch the first ball of warns next over
01:02:57cautious defensive stroke by jade having this particularly with warns up to 5.7 runs required
01:03:05it's not bad flighty delivery and it's hammered away for four runs fast long on there's no fielder there
01:03:14because the fielder which in the ground is uh at deep mid-wicket so one four one for one
01:03:22and this is just look how he gets outside his legs outside the line of the ball so that he can hit
01:03:29it straighter down the ground and not hit it to mid on that's beautiful positioning of the feet
01:03:33straight to cover what i've enjoyed though is that in the early stages but just in more recent
01:03:43deliveries that have been bold if they're in the slot they've hit them straight back over the top for four
01:03:47and the big head it's up in the air boone is getting under it and he's caught him and jadeja
01:03:57you can see the expression has gone and a cross back shot there from jadeja after playing such a fine
01:04:05innings he lofted that to deep mid-wicket and warn has won the day well what a waste this is pitches
01:04:14outside off stump it's foolish enough to be just saying that he'd been prepared to hit them straight
01:04:18down the ground he slots across the line hits it down boone's throat it deep mid-wicket a good hand
01:04:24from jadeja but he gives it away 141 for two india and jadeja on 87 getting a standing ovation from this crowd
01:04:34absolutely delighted and magnificent innings and whatever the way he whatever the form of his
01:04:43dismissal as far as india concerned the way he's played i'm sure a stop see the shot there played
01:04:51across the line and boone judging it very well at all the time in the world and took it
01:04:57and walked away quite indignant as to what had happened to him silver and siddhu will face him
01:05:08should be two runs rifle running around a deep square one six eight for two change in the commentary
01:05:15team it's going to be acid and that two leg spinner against some of the best players against the spin
01:05:21building remarkable his personal run rate getting better and better
01:05:35he's got that two and that's four more and the runs are just leaking that far end
01:05:47yes and i think that's exactly what the indian supporters are brilliant about
01:05:53siddhu picking that up beating the diving field direct cover point four runs beautiful shot
01:06:00and whether it's mark war or steve nothing can be done at the moment to stem the tide of runs
01:06:12and siddhu taking over now where jadeja left off
01:06:17yes and i think that's exactly what's happening they have done it exceptionally well that first
01:06:22is
01:06:27giving it a little wave there
01:06:32it wasn't hard and at this stage of the game i think it's very very important from the indian
01:06:37point of view that as and stays there
01:06:39especially when somebody's capable of playing these sort of shots there's no need for him to take
01:06:55unnecessary risks 177 for two
01:07:02he's on 22
01:07:10single down to mcgrath it's interesting to me
01:07:13to put panic into the indian basketball
01:07:23and i think that will be just about the first time has been relied on to bowl out the crew
01:07:28there is a likely of the shane won make for panic by full pressure but on the other hand i think that
01:07:33may be too late because if indians have still have batsmen remaining they'll go after him
01:07:46failure by seven wickets in the first semi-final of the tournament
01:07:51electing to bat first australia scored 244 for nine at the end of 50 overs australia had a shaky
01:07:57start first to go was mark taylor bowled by srinath for 11. boone went for 21 while mark war was the
01:08:03unlucky victim of a run out
01:08:11with three wickets down steve war and langer built up the innings before war was caught behind of
01:08:16srinath for 53. langer trying to take a single was run out by tendulkar for 36
01:08:28hayden was caught by jadeja of kumli for 48
01:08:34srinath and kumli both captured three wickets each india chasing a target of 245 to reach the final had an
01:08:42early loss tendulkar was brilliantly caught by taylor of mcgrath for six it was easy going for india
01:08:49after that sidhu and jadeja played sensible cricket
01:08:59and the big head it's up in the air boone is getting under it before jadeja lofted a catch to boone
01:09:05off one his innings of 87 included 12 fours and a six
01:09:08india lost its third wicket when sidhu was stumped by langer
01:09:18he scored 80
01:09:22india scored the required total in 45.5 overs with seven wickets in hand
01:09:27azaruddin on 36 and kumli on 28 remain not out
01:09:31and it's all over jadeja was named man of the match
01:09:40tomorrow pakistan play new zealand in the second semi-final of the australasia
