00:06Another very big crowd here at the Adelaide Oval for this clash between Australia and Pakistan
00:11in the World Series Cup. Australia on seven points and Pakistan on three. And for Pakistan
00:16to have a chance of making the finals, they must beat Australia today. That points table
00:22has West Indies skating away in the lead and the other two teams fighting it out for the
00:27bid to see which one will go in alongside them in the best of three finals. Players out today
00:33and a tragedy for Australia in that Rodney Marsh is injured and Geoffrey Lawson has a back
00:38problem. They both go out but a good chance for young Dean Jones, a young cricketer for
00:43whom I have a lot of time. Tom Hogan comes in as well. And for the Pakistanis, Tahir Nakash
00:48goes out and Mohsen Khan is in. Conditions very good at the Adelaide Oval. A beautiful day.
00:55A gusty breeze might have been the only thing that would cause problems for the players
00:58and a crowd expected of round about 26, 27,000 people. We pick up play now in the third over.
01:05No wicket for two. Rashid Khan is coming in to bowl to Kepler Vessels. Your commentators
01:09Ian Chappell and Frank Tyson.
01:19Ejaz at third man. Makes a good save there. Two to Vessels. And Australia none for four
01:24after three overs.
01:32Good shot there from Steve Smith. Picking up the short delivery. Crunching it away over square
01:39league. Just what the doctor ordered and what the crowd want. Because Australia off to a
01:46fairly sluggish start and they can't afford to let the overs tip by without picking up
01:52the runs. They really have to look for runs more than they are doing at the moment. And
01:55Smith very quick to pick up on that shorter delivery.
02:03Good shot from Smith. Picks the gap nicely. It's only a short boundary out there. The second
02:11boundary this morning. And both of them going to Steve Smith.
02:21He's really having to put up with a pretty ordinary attack. He's very happy with the way things are
02:27going. Oh and that one fumbled and thrown away down further towards the boundary.
02:36You can see up there Kepler Vessels has faced 31 balls for his five.
02:44That's pretty slow. That's a better shot. Two extra cover there. That's a wide ball outside
02:49Orbsdump and Vessels smashing it away. That's the one place he's going to have no trouble hitting the
02:54ball. He's in position for that shot prior to the ball. Leaving the bowler's hand.
03:03Oh good shot. That might be six. Way down towards square leg.
03:08And into the fence down there. So only for it. Nicely picked up there by Steve Smith.
03:13Australia. No way to put it in.
03:24That shout out there came I think from Abdul Qadir.
03:28One moment thought he might have been through Steve Smith's defence.
03:39There's a man out at the point. Medasa.
03:46He's around a little straighter than a squarish point. He's more a deep cover.
03:54And a gusty breeze today for Qadir to bowl in two. And he just hasn't quite got his length.
04:08Shot and dropped out at mid-wicket. That was hit with tremendous power that.
04:15Medasa has a shortage delivery. Smith was in perfect position.
04:19And hit it to the right of Javid Meandad. Who couldn't hold on to this hot chance.
04:31Could be Bize.
04:34This is going for the sweep.
04:38Must have got a touch to it.
04:41By Peter McConnell.
04:43The same there.
04:44The question was asked by the bowler.
04:46With a clip of this was laid a bet on us.
04:53Going through the pads of Barry.
05:03Smith's looking for two.
05:04But he's going to go.
05:07Oh that was
05:09a very good piece of running there from Steve Smith.
05:13That ball was almost in the outfielder's hands there.
05:2026 overs remaining for the Australians.
05:23So it's essential that one of these two players out there now
05:26goes on and gets a big score.
05:30Spin in that one.
05:32And Ejaz, the off spinner.
05:34I don't think we could have seen him turn a ball like that.
05:38So far this tour.
05:40In fact the last boundary scored 12 overs a go by the Australians.
05:48Must be close.
05:51Depends if Ejaz had slipped in the top spinner there.
05:55And this is what happens when you peg down.
05:57A little bit of frustration keeping into the Australians' play.
06:01Smith hit in line.
06:02But the fact that he was well forward with that front pad
06:05would have thrown the doubt into the umpire's mind.
06:09No doubt about that one.
06:11Giving himself room for the stroke.
06:13And Steve Smith has gone.
06:15Bowled by Ejaz.
06:17He's got an interesting over so far.
06:18The first ball spun a mile.
06:21Then an appeal for LBW.
06:22And then bowling Steve Smith.
06:25And a good bowling change by Javid.
06:27Taking Kadir off and bringing Ejaz on.
06:29And as Richie Benno mentioned, a good over.
06:33Which indicates that there's plenty of spin out there.
06:36So Australia losing their first wicket down.
06:3870 runs on the board.
06:39Nearly at the halfway mark.
06:44Ejaz to Vessels.
06:53Swept in the air and picking the gap
06:56to bring up Vessels' second boundary.
07:09Vessels showing a lot of aggression
07:11but he's hitting the ball in the air.
07:13Quite a bit in the last couple of overs.
07:15He's rather fortunate to just avoid Javid on that occasion.
07:28Again Vessels going over the top.
07:35As Imraja out of deep mid-wicket.
07:51And that brings up the 100 for Straubel.
07:54And the 50 for Kipla Vessels.
07:57The 31st over.
08:00This is 50, which is 5.
08:02It's 1 for 99.
08:04Going up the scoreboard.
08:07And Vessels' patient 50.
08:11That's a fine straight drive from Greg Ritchie.
08:15He's hit another Seagull.
08:17And the Seagull is in a bit of strike there.
08:22Greg Ritchie picks up two runs.
08:24It's 1 for 101.
08:32Well, the Seagull is okay.
08:33A little stunned, I would say.
08:35He's not moving too well.
08:36Not able to get off the ground.
08:38A few of his mates come back to check and see if he's okay.
08:43He's not moving too well yet.
08:53And that could be a long chase.
08:57Could easily pick up four here.
09:03And Vessels goes back for the fourth.
09:07Good running and the crowd coming alive here at the Adelaide Oval as the Australians push off the 32nd over.
09:13It's a sweeping find, but hold it up nicely.
09:24It's away safely.
09:26Nadassa is the man at mid-wicket.
09:37And the Seagull is away.
09:39He's shaken off the effects of that blow from Greg Ritchie and quite wisely decided to get the hell out
09:46of the Adelaide Oval.
09:47Must be much safer places than that.
09:50He's gone out into the gardens out the side.
09:53I think he'll be a lot safer out there.
09:57Wrongen.
09:58Vessels picks that.
10:02And he gets just enough timing to take it into the boundary.
10:05So Australia starting to get on top of this spin attack.
10:08Moved along to 114.
10:15Fast 95 deliveries.
10:16Hit four boundaries.
10:2126 runs scored in the last four overs.
10:25By Kepler Vessels.
10:27Oh and he's got him.
10:30Clean bowled him.
10:31Kepler Vessels hitting over the top of a well-flighted Yorker.
10:34And Ejaz has picked up his second with it.
10:37He has a fine piece of bowling.
10:39He's prepared to throw the ball up.
10:41And he's kept the Vessels down.
10:43A fraction.
10:44Drifted in.
10:45And spun away as he hit across the line of flight.
10:48And that's the end for Kepler Vessels.
10:49A bad time to get out.
10:50And you've occupied the crease for 33 overs.
10:53After 61.
10:54And it's two for 115.
11:05And off the bottom of the bat.
11:07Away past first slip.
11:10Which he's running very hard.
11:13And Hughes should get back for the fourth.
11:16For all run.
11:23Greg Ritchie faces Ejaz.
11:30And now the deep square but it's short of him.
11:33And Bukadir.
11:42Six runs have come from this over so far.
11:46It's lofted away.
11:47The batsmen now are really going for their strokes as they have to.
11:51It's interesting to tussle this on the wicket that's showing that it's a little bit receptive to spin.
11:58And it spun right the way back then.
12:01And Ritchie going for the square cut became the second victim of that sort of a stroke.
12:09Steve Smith was the first.
12:11Good delivery this.
12:13Came back a long, long way from outside off stump.
12:16Greg Ritchie had his sights on it to punch it away there through cover point.
12:20But Australia now 3 for 126.
12:233 for 129.
12:26The not out batsman.
12:27Hughes 8 off 9 balls.
12:28Border 2 off the 4 balls he's faced.
12:35Meandad placing his field with great care and precision.
12:39He's done a good job, Meandad.
12:44Into Wasimbarri's face there, I think.
12:49Well, Ejaz is only an off spinner.
12:51Doesn't come through all that quickly.
12:53But it took Wasimbarri under the jaw, I think.
12:57Like an uppercut.
12:58It might have just come off Hughes' pad.
13:01The sort of thing that the weekkeeper hates.
13:03The deflection off the pad upwards into the face.
13:05Oh, dear.
13:07Here it was.
13:08Wasimbarri's okay.
13:10He's Hughes and Ejaz to ball.
13:16Oh, nicely placed.
13:17Beat the fellow rushing in to save the single.
13:23Now there is one brilliant piece of cricket from Kim Hughes.
13:29Who placed that ball past the fellow rushing in from square leg.
13:34And then a series of little comedies.
13:38And here it begins.
13:39Good stroke.
13:40Fieldsman dashing in.
13:42Overruns the ball.
13:43Has to retreat.
13:43Pick it up.
13:44Meanwhile, the batsmen are in the middle of the wicket.
13:46They weren't talking to one another.
13:48They want to go again.
13:49Now it's third option.
13:51Wasimbarri falls over.
13:58And Hughes has gone.
14:00Good delivery, that.
14:01That spun a lot.
14:02It looped into the breeze.
14:04Dropped sharply on Hughes.
14:06And then it spun a great deal.
14:09Well, Wasimbarri comes back after that blow to the chin.
14:12He gets up off the canvas.
14:14As Hughes gives Ejaz a charge.
14:16The ball spins between bat and pad.
14:18And Wasimbarri still retains his composure in spite of that nasty knock.
14:22And has to come a long way forward to the stumps.
14:25But Hughes is so far down the wicket.
14:27He's easily out.
14:28Four for one through five.
14:32Wayne Phillips takes strike.
14:33Abdoul Khadir is bowling.
14:42That's very, very good running.
14:45And terrible fielding.
14:50They've got three out of that.
14:52And the ball just went behind the square leg.
14:57And they were looking for a fourth.
14:58That's chaos out there.
14:59Javid Mendele is saying, what the hell is going on?
15:02Or words to that effect.
15:19Two more to the border.
15:31Two more to the border.
15:33And border goes.
15:36Well, the pressure is getting on to the Australians now.
15:39They've lost five wickets.
15:40And we're only into the 39th over.
15:44The sacrifice there of Alan Borders' wicket.
15:48It could have happened before this.
15:51Phillips, three-quarters of the way down the wicket.
15:53And border still undecided.
15:54And border just came home as a matter of formality.
15:57Head down.
15:58Tail down.
16:00And he's also back in the building.
16:02Five for one, four, five.
16:11And that one played away forcefully to mid-wicket.
16:15Coming back to the second.
16:17And a good throw.
16:17And right over the top of the stumps.
16:32Going away down to fine leg.
16:35And Phillips is flying, so is Dean Jones.
16:38And cross for three.
16:41A big responsibility on these two.
16:43Young Dean Jones playing his first international match.
16:46And Wayne Phillips batting out here in front of his home crowd.
16:49He'd try and directify that nasty run-out.
16:54Which he was largely responsible for.
16:56He's bowled him.
16:59Modassa has rolled Wayne Phillips over.
17:01It may have been that he got a little inside edge there.
17:04Dragged the ball back.
17:05But Phillips looking to drive down the ground.
17:08And he's out-bowled by Modassa.
17:09And it hasn't been a good series for Wayne Phillips.
17:12Opened up in the first couple of World Series Cup matches.
17:14And then dragging that one back.
17:16With a good, healthy inside edge.
17:18And Modassa, who's bowled very well in the limited-over matches, breaks through.
17:23So Wayne Phillips out for 17.
17:24Off 21 deliveries in Australia.
17:26Six for 163.
17:31Tom Hogan faces Modassa.
17:34Oh, he smashed that.
17:35It's going high and down towards the man underneath it.
17:38And EJ's there.
17:38He's caught it.
17:39Good catch.
17:39No, it's not.
17:40It's Raja.
17:41Very good catch.
17:42That one swinging away from him.
17:44And Raja eventually catching it away from his body.
17:46About five or six yards short of the deep mid-wicket boundary.
17:51And Modassa once again picking up another vital.
17:55We got a good catch out there by Raja.
17:58Nelly got away from him.
18:00He extended himself right at the very last moment.
18:03And he caught it safely.
18:05Certainly relieved was in Raja.
18:07Tom Hogan out.
18:08And Australia, seven for 169.
18:13Jones, nine of 18 balls.
18:16He's scoring a run every two balls.
18:20Maguire with him.
18:24Oh, he's hit that.
18:25What a beautiful shot that was.
18:27Down the wicket he went.
18:28Hit through the line of the ball.
18:30And he barely smashed it through the shins of Kadir, I think it is, at Middorf.
18:36Lovely shot.
18:37That was nearly the shot of the day.
18:39That one hit right in the middle of the bat.
18:41Beautiful shot.
18:43A little bad bounce down there for Kadir.
18:45But he wasn't too keen to get behind it.
18:49John Maguire faces Rashid Khan.
18:54That's out.
18:55Straight to mid-wicket.
18:56That one hit very firmly.
18:59And Maguire out.
19:01Caught Mansur Akhtar at mid-wicket there.
19:04A very firmly played whip to mid-wicket.
19:07This Australian innings now falling away dramatically.
19:10John Maguire holing out to mid-wicket.
19:13And Rashid, his first success of the day.
19:16He's bowled very economically.
19:18Picking up the wicket of John Maguire.
19:22So Rashid, macular figures.
19:24One for 16 from nine overs.
19:26Maguire out for one.
19:27And Australia, 879.
19:37To Dean Jones.
19:38That one glided away.
19:39Nice and fine.
19:40Good shot.
19:41And then a fine leg is very square.
19:43And he's having to move a long way around.
19:45And that's into the boundary.
19:47Very good placement there by Dean Jones.
19:51And the vessel just straying onto the leg stump and delicately played by the youngster.
20:03Oh, good shot.
20:04He's hit that up on the out through extra cover.
20:07But it's going down to the really long boundary.
20:09And so they'll have to settle for three.
20:20And Jones once again finding the gap in the outfield.
20:25A very bad piece of fielding.
20:27Almost crossed Pakistan a boundary there.
20:29Salim running not in a straight line but running in from the boundary.
20:36Almost missed that.
20:38So Pakistan will have to keep their run rate moving along and win the match today.
20:47Once again Jones has found a gap and he'll bring up another boundary.
20:51His third.
20:52That was beautifully played.
20:54He charged.
20:55That was short.
20:56He flipped it back to the square.
20:58Rolled the wrist.
20:58And hit that beautifully.
21:00Dean Jones winning a lot of fence here at the Adelaide Oval.
21:06Medusa bowling the last over.
21:11Jones lofting onto the onside.
21:13And once again he's found the gap.
21:14And that's his fourth boundary.
21:18Now played Dean Jones.
21:19Very strong on the onside as he is on the offside when driving.
21:22But he ripped that away nicely.
21:24Not only did he hit it well.
21:25But he placed it.
21:26That comes up to 200 for Australia.
21:28And Jones here playing very sensible.
21:31Scoring out the run per ball.
21:32Faced and it's very important.
21:3419 runs have come in the last two overs.
21:44Fine shot from Jones as he goes over the top of Nidoff.
21:49And they'll be looking to run at least three.
21:53Rosen gets the ball back in pretty smartly.
21:55Three it is and a very good flurry at the end there from Dean Jones.
21:59He remains not out 40.
22:01Pog not out six.
22:0313 extras.
22:04And Australia 8-4-210 at the end of their 50 overs.
22:09Well in the end that turned out very well for the Australians.
22:12Mainly due to that fine little innings by Dean Jones right at the end.
22:15And 40 in just 33 balls faced.
22:19A tremendous effort from a young man playing in his first international game.
22:23The rest of the card for Australia was a mixed affair.
22:26Vessels did well up the top in the end.
22:28And Steve Smith as his partner finally battled through.
22:32And their opening stand paved the way for the later batsmen to do pretty well.
22:36Dean Jones came in right at the end.
22:38And the Pakistan bowlers must have thought at one stage they were going to dismiss them for fewer than 200
22:42runs.
22:43The best of the bowlers was Ijaz Faki with four wickets.
22:47And Madasa Nazar picked up two.
22:49We pick up play now in the second over.
22:51Rackerman is coming in to bowl to Javid Meandad.
22:53Your commentators Tony Gregg and Keith Stackpole.
22:59Well that's a beautiful shot.
23:01A little bit short there that ball from Rackerman.
23:03And Javid Meandad leaning back.
23:05Dispatching it over mid-wicket for four.
23:11That's a great lesson Tony.
23:12How one should play in these early overs.
23:15Javid picked up the length beautifully.
23:17He's back onto the back foot.
23:18And with the field all up apart from the two men out.
23:21A perfectly safe shot.
23:28One another good shot by Javid that time.
23:31Flipping it away off his pads.
23:35Tom Hogan the fieldsman there.
23:38So a little sense of urgency out there.
23:51That's nicely played again into the gap.
23:53And will they come back for the second?
23:54Yes they'll have to be quick.
23:57Kim Hughes the fieldsman at mid-wicket.
24:02That's beautifully played away.
24:04Just to the left hand there of the backward square leg.
24:07But that ball flying off the middle of the bat.
24:12No wicket for 14.
24:14Carl Rackerman again.
24:18And that one hits straight down the ground.
24:19Over the top.
24:20Beautiful shot by Javid Mjandad.
24:23These are very interesting tactics by the Pakistanis.
24:26All the fieldsmen have to be up bar two.
24:28And we have a third man in fine legs.
24:30So there's a lot of vacant space.
24:31Space back down the ground.
24:34Some excellent performances turned in by Rodney Hogg.
24:37In this World Series Cup.
24:45Well, well played.
24:47That one hit straight through mid-wicket there.
24:49And the ball rolling away down towards the boundary.
24:53Four more.
24:55Well, they're certainly attacking the Australian bowlers.
25:06And that one smashed away square as well.
25:08I didn't pick it up for a minute.
25:09He hit it really firmly.
25:10Smashed it away for four.
25:12Beautiful shot by Javid Mjandad.
25:14No wicket for 27.
25:18Both batsmen on 14.
25:23Oh, beautiful shot.
25:26Mansour smashing that one away through extra cover.
25:35Javid, the man there, smashing that one through extra cover for four.
25:47Oh, another short delivery by Maguire.
25:49That's bad bowling.
25:50And this driver to Mjandad dispatching that with all the ease in the world.
25:54A square leg for four.
26:01So Rodney Hogg again.
26:05So down the wicket to him.
26:07Smashes him through mid-off.
26:08What a shot.
26:11Well, Rodney Hogg getting some punishment here.
26:13The ball rolling slowly down towards the boundary.
26:16Four more to the Pakistanis.
26:25Oh, good shot.
26:26There's no one out there.
26:27That'll be one bounce four.
26:29Good shot by Javid Mjandad.
26:31The ball once again just a little short.
26:33And Maguire there paying the penalty.
26:36We've said over the last three days that this is a good batting week.
26:40And for the greater part of the three days, the batsman has struggled.
26:43But not at the moment because it's Pakistan in full flight.
26:53Oh, and that one smashed away down to fine leg.
26:56The ball bobbing around there.
26:57And Javid Mjandad coming back for the second.
26:59And Javid Mjandad coming back for the second.
27:01It was a little difficult for Rodney Hogg.
27:03Nice to bounce for him.
27:0928 runs.
27:11Great strike rate that.
27:17And that's it away down to the square leg boundary for four.
27:21Well, Kim Hughes beginning to feel the pinch out there.
27:25One of the reasons he's got a problem is Lawson's not playing.
27:28But Mjandad really is turning it on.
27:31And 50 now up for Pakistan.
27:39Well, this one hits straight down the ground.
27:42Didn't really middle it.
27:43But the fieldsmen have got to be inside the circle there.
27:46So anything that clears the circle by any distance at all is going to be safe.
27:5013 runs of that over.
27:52Pakistan cruising at no wicket for 54.
28:05Good sensible cricket there from Mansour.
28:08Realises that Javid is going along very nicely.
28:12And just looking to push the ball around.
28:14Play safely.
28:15Make sure he doesn't get out.
28:16But he didn't miss the opportunity to get back for a second run.
28:23Pakistan 8.2.
28:25In that 56 runs they've hit 10 boundaries.
28:28Boundaries have been scarce as hen's teeth over the last two days.
28:32It's great to see.
28:34Javid, Mjandad leading from the front.
28:46And he's bowled in.
28:48Rather silly shot there from Mansour.
28:50Didn't really need to do that.
28:52But I guess if you're going to be aggressive,
28:56it is very hard to stop the flow of adrenaline.
29:00And it's Hugg keeping the ball up at the stumps.
29:04And Rodney Hugg with a great strike rate this series.
29:06It was always at the stumps.
29:08Hit middle peg.
29:09Mansour out for a very valuable and quick scoring 22.
29:13Pakistan.
29:15Rackerman bowls to Javid, Mjandad.
29:21It's high in the air.
29:22Tom Hogan going back on a very good catch.
29:25Well taken.
29:26A brilliant catch running the same way as the ball.
29:29The catch of the season.
29:30Tom Hogan, Javid, Mjandad on fire.
29:33It took a brilliant catch from Hogan.
29:34He went to pull it over mid-wicket.
29:36He got it high on the spice of the bat.
29:37And Hogan took a great catch.
29:39Running with the fight of the ball.
29:41Into that southerly breeze.
29:43But the ball was going.
29:44Going to hang up long enough for Hogan to take a beauty.
30:02Javid out for 34.
30:04It's 2 for 58.
30:12Well Javid is going the whole way with his policy of aggression.
30:15Wazim Rajah, the left-hander, comes in at number 4.
30:20They say fortune favours the brave.
30:23Certainly did on that occasion.
30:27Khazim on 2.
30:28Wazim Rajah yet to get off the mark.
30:312 for 58.
30:34And a good catch there.
30:36Well I suppose he is a catching man when he takes the catch.
30:40Very good effort there from Greg Ritchie.
30:45Yes, Khazim Omo working that ball to the backwards square red position.
30:49And the man in the catching position which we've been talking about.
30:52He had a very forceful shot off the middle of the bat.
30:56And Khazim Omo departs.
30:58And the wheels fall off for Pakistan.
31:003 for 58.
31:023 for 58.
31:14Well taken there by his replacement, Wayne Phillips.
31:17A very, very good catch diving away down the leg side.
31:22A tremendous catch, that leg side deflection.
31:25Phillips in the air, caught it with both hands as clear as a whistle.
31:29And Pakistan slumped to 4 for 60.
31:31But a beautiful catch.
31:31It was whipped fine.
31:33And Phillips across.
31:35Took a clean and a good dismissal for Carl Rackerman who was struck three times.
31:41And that's out for one.
31:434 for 60.
31:52Maguire to Mershan Khan.
31:56Nice deflection.
31:59Coming back for the second.
32:00I have to go quickly.
32:03It's the over four runs conceded.
32:04It's 4 for 73.
32:15Tom Hogan.
32:17Deflection off a bit of pad there from Mosen.
32:23Two runs.
32:26Buys.
32:27No deflection at all.
32:35Dived away.
32:36Well fielded.
32:39Still managed to get two.
32:41Ritchie doing the fielding there.
32:42That may well have gone for four had he not got a hand to it.
32:50Ritchie diving away.
32:52Cutting that one off.
32:54Kepler vessels to Wazim Raja.
33:00Little nudge past the vacant cordon.
33:04Wazim Raja.
33:08Should run four surely.
33:11Yes.
33:11And Wazim comes back for the fourth.
33:14All run.
33:16A little bit of deflection.
33:17A nice little nudge that one.
33:22Four for 96.
33:23Chasing 211 for victory.
33:31Four played away to square leg.
33:33Quite middled it.
33:34But they'll get two.
33:45He's gone.
33:47One attacking shot he makes.
33:49He drives it straight to.
33:51Couldn't use it cover.
33:52And Kepler vessels strikes.
33:53And it's another wicket fallen.
33:55And Pakistan going down the drain in the Benson Hedges World Series Cup suit competition.
34:01Downed down the wicket to Kepler vessels.
34:03Didn't get hold of it at all.
34:08As he decided to have a go.
34:09Hit it over the offside field.
34:11But hit it straight to Kim Hughes.
34:14And Wazim Raja would be pretty disappointed with his contribution to this match.
34:17He normally is a big hitter.
34:20There it is.
34:2117 runs in 66 balls.
34:23That's not too good at all.
34:24Pakistan 5 for 98.
34:28Salim comes to the crease with his side in trouble at 5 for 98.
34:39Tie in the air.
34:41A little false safe away from Fieldsman at deep backward square leg.
34:46Rodney Hogg.
34:48As Ian Chappell mentioned.
34:49A very good spell of bowling by Tom Hogan.
34:52None for 12 from his 8 overs so far.
34:56Had a little bit in direct contrast to his last appearance for Australia.
35:00Was over here at the Adelaide Oval.
35:0237 overs he sent down in the test match.
35:05Pakistan compiled that big score.
35:07Mosin getting a big hundred.
35:08He got one for 107 on that occasion.
35:15Good shot there from Salim.
35:16Waiting for the ball to turn.
35:18And just going with it.
35:20Guiding it down to third man.
35:23Doesn't look like he's a man who made two hundreds in the test series.
35:29It's amazing how a batsman's form can desert him.
35:32And he's fighting here to try and get a little bit of that touch back.
35:45And that's got to be close.
35:46Yes.
35:47Umpire Stephen Randall says it's out.
35:51It was always pretty straight.
35:54Mosin threw his head back when he was given out.
35:56But I don't think there was much doubt about that one.
35:59Playing right across the line.
36:01The ball seemed to hurry off just a little bit quicker.
36:05Catching Mosin right in front.
36:07Playing just across it.
36:09Wayne Phillips.
36:11And Kepler Vessels a very confident appeal.
36:13So Kepler Vessels does it once again.
36:15Picking up his second wicket.
36:17Mosin Khan out for 19.
36:18Off 61 deliveries.
36:20And Pakistan now 6 for 115.
36:24Comparisons after 35 overs.
36:27Australia well in front.
36:28In runs and in wickets.
36:313 for 1, 2, 6.
36:336 for 115.
36:36And the run rate required from here on in.
36:396.4 from Pakistan.
36:45Well flighted delivery there by Hogan.
36:48Beating both batsman and keeper.
36:51It's an ideal breeze to bowl into from the spinner down at that far end.
36:55Nice flight.
36:57Bit of turn and just bouncing over the top of the stumps.
37:05And it's almost taken by Kepler Vessels.
37:09As Salim missed times that attempted shot off the back foot.
37:14And Kepler Vessels normally a very safe pair of hands.
37:17And he'd be disappointed if he let this one get away.
37:21Particularly off his own bowling.
37:30This time they get the single.
37:34Any spinner that can bowl 10 overs.
37:37And average just around about 2 runs and over.
37:39It's been a very good piece of bowling.
37:42Wickets taken.
37:44Not always the guide to a bowler's performance.
37:46And this is certainly not the case in Tom Hogan.
37:48Because he hasn't picked up a wicket.
37:51And there's an appeal there.
37:52And that's close as well.
37:53Yes.
37:53Peter McConnell agrees with Tom Hogan and Dwayne Phillips.
37:58Who gave a tremendous shout when that ball hit Salim on the pads.
38:03And a just way to finish off his bowling stint.
38:07Picking up a wicket with his very last ball.
38:09The ball that pitched in line with the middle and leg stump just turned back fractionally.
38:13The batsman hit right in line.
38:16So Tom Hogan the end of an excellent spell of bowling.
38:201 for 22 off 10 overs.
38:21And Salim out for 14.
38:23And Pakistan now struggling at 7 for 123.
38:29They've only got three wickets in hand.
38:38Good shot from Ejaz.
38:40Water will just cut it off though.
38:42He's very quick around the boundary.
38:44Very strong throwing arm.
38:51And Australia doing it well now.
38:537 for 137 from 43.
38:56So the rate really is high required by Pakistan at the moment.
39:02What a turnabout after the way they started off.
39:05Excellent bowling figures there.
39:06Tom Hogan has turned in an outstanding performance.
39:10We've said a couple of times how well Ejaz bowled.
39:13And Abdul Qadir on other occasions.
39:14Hogan today was quite superb.
39:19And Hogg has slipped through now.
39:22Pakistan had to get cracking.
39:26Abdul Qadir has gone.
39:28It's 8 for 137 in Australia.
39:30Not far away from the finals.
39:32Yes, this is certainly the last Kale at the nail in the Pakistan coffin.
39:37Right across the line.
39:39The ball hitting middle and off.
39:41Abdul Qadir comprehensively bowled by the first ball of Rodney Hogg's new spell.
39:48So Pakistan now in all sorts of trouble.
39:508 down for 137.
39:55Rackerman to Ejaz.
39:59A well gone.
40:00Northcourt low bowled by Rackerman.
40:02Ejaz goes.
40:04That was a good delivery from Kyle Rackerman.
40:06Neatly taken by Phillips.
40:08Nothing outstanding about the catch.
40:10But he loved it well.
40:12Beautifully bowled by Rackerman.
40:15Yes, Kyle Rackerman certainly has bowled well in this match as well.
40:18A little bit of movement away off the seam there.
40:20An outside edge.
40:21And the catch taken by Wayne Phillips.
40:24Rackerman is spot on in terms of his length in line.
40:28And as a result, he's rewarded by yet another wicket.
40:31Ejaz out for 13.
40:32Pakistan 9 for 137.
40:40And now for 140, the sad tale for Pakistan.
40:43Top score still Javad Meandad with 34.
40:51And that's it.
40:53The end of the innings and the end of the match.
40:56And victory for Australia by 70 runs.
41:00They're into the finals now against the West Indies, irrespective of what happens to them in the Perth weekend.
41:07Well, that was a splendid effort from the Australians in the end.
41:10The way Pakistan started off, I thought they really were going to get those 211 runs in the space of
41:15just 30 or 32 overs to keep up the run rate and make a big challenge for Australia in Perth.
41:20The Pakistan card.
41:22Top score there.
41:22Javad Meandad 34.
41:24And the rest fell away for the total of 140.
41:27And the bowling figures.
41:28Rackerman 5 for 16.
41:29My word, he must have gone very close to the player of the match.
41:32And a splendid performance there from Tom Hogan.
41:351 for 22.
41:35We've often said how well Abdul Qadir and Ejaz are bowled.
41:38Well, Tom Hogan outbowled them here today at the Adelaide Oval.
41:41A crowd of 22,758.
41:44And the points table in World Series Cup.
41:47The West Indies are on 14.
41:48Australia on 9.
41:50Pakistan 3.
41:51And man of the match.
41:52Well, it wasn't Carl Rackerman.
41:54That little pleasure today went to the all-rounder Kepler Vessels.
41:58And he made runs and bowled extremely well once again.
42:02So, the matches now move on to Perth next weekend.
42:05A doubleheader.
42:07There's no significance in them as far as the finals are concerned.
42:10Because the finals now consist of West Indies and Australia.
42:14But there'll be plenty of competition in the matches themselves.
42:16For the financial reward.
42:17And the confidence booster for Australia.
42:20If they can only down the West Indies in Perth.
42:23We look forward to having you with us in those matches.
42:25Good night.
42:32Good night.
42:32Good night.
42:32Good night.
42:32Good night.
