00:03Hello and welcome to today's 20-over match.
00:06We're hoping for a good day's cricket here.
00:07Let's hope the players can oblige.
00:09Joining me in the commentary box for this match is Tony Gregg.
00:11You were out there earlier on.
00:13Greggie, how does the pitch look?
00:14Well, thanks, Jonathan.
00:15This pitch is absolutely superb.
00:17An excellent cricket wicket.
00:18The groundsman's done a fine job.
00:19It's hard and fast, so the ball will come onto the bat nicely.
00:22But there's also plenty of bounce for the bowlers,
00:24with the ball carrying nicely through to the wheelkeeper
00:26at around about waist height.
00:28The wrist spinners should really enjoy bowling.
00:32Looks like they'll be coming out to bat then.
00:34Well, that's an interesting call.
00:35Let's see whether it's the correct one.
00:36There's a really good crowd in the ground today,
00:38and they'll be anticipating a great cricketing contest.
00:45That's out.
00:51Let's look at that again.
00:57New Manning can't afford any lapses in concentration here.
01:04The ball just runs out into the covers.
01:08He centres back.
01:09What a mix-up.
01:10There's bound to be trouble here.
01:11Asleep in the field.
01:12No one back there.
01:25Oh, he's dropped it.
01:28They may yet have to pay for that.
01:30The fielding team really cannot afford to spill catches like that.
01:35Four runs.
01:40Very well timed.
01:43And another four.
01:45Everything was in the right place there.
01:47It fairly raced at that.
01:48The crowd really enjoyed that one.
02:05That's one more on to the score.
02:06And the bows are taking a bit of a stick out there.
02:11Quickie to start a new over.
02:32Let's take a look at that from another angle.
02:38Favourite crick rounds of all time.
02:39I think if you ask me to pick two rounds out,
02:42I'd probably pick Peck down there.
02:43Out.
02:45Yet again.
02:48Great catch.
02:49It's important not to miss anything in the field at all.
02:51Let's have a look at that from another angle.
03:05That's a sensational throw.
03:07It's in the air, but there's nobody near it.
03:09And it'll go to four.
03:10Oh, a super shot again.
03:12He's got into a perfect position for that shot.
03:13Head over the ball.
03:14Weight forward.
03:16No ball.
03:17That was a sloppy piece of cricket.
03:27Nice shot.
03:31He's found the gap with that one.
03:32That was a cracking shot.
03:34He really got into position beautifully there.
03:49That shot would give you an idea of just how fast his outfield is.
03:52He lifted that way out of the infield really well.
04:01Fine fielding.
04:03No run.
04:26Right catch.
04:27It's important not to miss anything in the field at all.
04:30Let's have a look at that from another angle.
04:43That's when they're coming back for two
04:46Confident appeal
04:49It doesn't look best pleased when he's pointed there
04:52It certainly wasn't the greatest call in the world
04:54Let's take a look at that from another angle
04:59Left hand, right hand combination of the crease now
05:02That's the end of another over
05:18Terrific shot
05:20That was superb placement
05:21Wow, what about that?
05:22What a shot there
05:24This over is proving to be quite expensive
05:33They're appealing
05:35He's calling for the TV replay on this one
05:38Let's have a look at that again
05:45They're tough ones for the umpire
05:46We get to see it in slow motion
05:48Or with Hawkeye over and over
05:49But in the middle
05:50They only get one shot at it at full speed
06:05The third umpire's given him out
06:06That was a sharp stumping by the waterkeeper
06:08These coach will definitely have him back in the lead's first thing in the morning
06:11Practicing that shot
06:13Serious pressure on new man in
06:17Another over gone
06:18Go for it
06:20God For that
06:22Whoa
06:51You
07:05Tremendous shot
07:07He's gone for it
07:08And he gets six
07:09Well what about that
07:10What a shot
07:2113 off the over
07:36Out
07:43Let's have a look at that again
07:49So into the tail now
07:50And these now will be back to a block to show you some resistance
08:13Let's have a look at that from another angle
08:20Beautiful timing
08:23Seeing their boys sail over the fence
08:25It's the worst sight in cricket
08:27The crowd really enjoyed that one
08:44What a beautiful slope
08:48That's four more
08:49One looking shot
08:50He really managed to go there
08:51He hit that with great power
09:01Top quality shot
09:05For four
09:06He plays that shot
09:10That's out
09:15Caught
09:16Yet again
09:18That was a fair
09:20Strike forward catch
09:21But you still need to make sure
09:22Let's take another look at that in replay
09:33New batsman in
09:34Absolute concentration required now
09:51Brilliant timing
09:54That really does get the mothers back up
09:56No bowler life
09:57No bowler life
09:57Big intercess
09:58The crowd enjoyed that shot
10:10Gone
10:12That about wrapped it up now
10:13They went straight down the field of stroke
10:15The batsman will be kicking himself
10:17Let's have a look at the action replay
10:26Right hander and left hander at the piece now
10:44Oh that's a superb shot
10:48He lifted that way over the infield really well
11:10Great timing on the shot
11:12That was a mighty hit
11:14Great shot
11:15Another give it to confidence
11:17He loves the ball on leg stump
11:37No run scored
11:44Top quality shot
11:45Well if you want to show the kids the perfect way to play that shot
11:50There's a fun zone
12:02He's out
12:09And from another angle
12:15That brings the innings to a close
12:16He's getting a polite
12:35Thin edge
12:36Got him
12:43Let's take a look at that in replay
12:51Let's take a look at that in replay
12:51So it's a left right combination at the crease now
13:01Oh that looks like it might have hurt
13:02It's lucky they wear helmets these days or that would have put him out of the game
13:10No ball
13:12No ball
13:13No ball
13:46Three conceded in the over.
13:59He's played that beautifully.
14:04That was beautifully put away for four.
14:06Oh, lovely timing.
14:24Four all the way.
14:26And a cracking shot that way.
14:27He looks at me.
14:36Good placement.
14:37That'll really harm the feeling.
14:45He's not going to miss out on gifts like that.
14:47Poor boy.
14:48That's just giving control.
14:51Place that superbly.
15:01Seven run, the score from the over.
15:12Well, what's the umpire going to say about this one?
15:13Out!
15:16Right in front.
15:17No arguments there.
15:18His coach will definitely have him back in the net's first thing in the morning, practicing that shot.
15:23This one has a free hit.
15:24He can only be run out off this ball.
15:30Beautiful stroke.
15:33That's in the air, and six glorious rounds.
15:36He's really treating this morning with absolute contempt.
15:39That shot put the crowd to their feet.
15:41That really is an expensive move.
15:42For four, especially if you manage to get the shot right.
15:44But I think that you should try to play the hook and pull shot, because if you perfect it, there
15:49are plenty of runs to be able to do.
15:51In fact, I'd go further.
15:52There's no point in eliminating any shot.
15:55You've got to try the ball, and then, depending on your personal view of how you're going,
15:59you're then going to make a stance in respect of how you're going to select your shots.
16:02And if you don't feel confident with the hook, then don't play it.
16:09That's all.
16:14Oh, that's a cracking shot.
16:17He bit you squat well there.
16:19Time's out to perfection.
16:31That's when I'm looking for two.
16:38Two runs there.
16:39Two runs there.
17:06Clean ball.
17:08Batson really had no answer to it.
17:13Let's have a look at that again.
17:21Left hand, right hand combination at the crease now.
17:35One more to Dextra's column.
17:53What about the Diveômeaux on a new screen?
17:56Yes, yes, yes, yes just go.
18:08The Diveômeaux for the Diveômeaux done a new screen.
18:15Just go to the Diveômeaux.
18:19Down there, just go to the Diveômeaux.
18:22You can see the Diveômeaux.
18:23There are too many places to call the Diveômeaux.
18:40It's the fast bowler's final
19:05Just one run
19:18That one changed their minds
19:41It's an edge
19:50No ball
19:53No balls these days mean the batsman has a free hit
19:57He can only be run out off this ball
20:08Let's take a look at that from another angle
20:17Edged
20:21That's when I'm coming back for a second
20:24What's the other one going to say about this one?
20:27The end of the over
20:43That's absolutely infuriating for the bowler
20:53That's three more
21:07That's when I'm looking for two
21:15So the run rate stands at just over five and over
21:27Big shout
21:37The ball just runs out onto the covers
21:41The batsman come back for a second
21:45Two runs onto the batsman's total
21:57Big shout
22:21that was straight in front no doubt about that one well it's a batsman's nightmare seeing that
22:25finger let's take another look at that in repro i wonder what hawkeye maybe that
22:32absolute concentration required from a new man in
22:40edged
23:00physical fitness is obviously a big part of the modern game but just how important is mental
23:03strength there is a bit of a emphasis these days perhaps a little bit more so than in my day
23:08on
23:08physical fitness to be perfectly honest i'm not too sure that i agree with the way they're going
23:12about it because what you read
23:19edged
23:23that's the end of another over
23:28this is the final over of the match
23:41edged
23:52no ball no ball
23:57that's when they're looking for two
24:03thin edge
24:04and there's a fielder underneath it
24:06yet again the batsman fails to follow the ball
24:08and he's out
24:09very safe and they can stop there
24:11is that's what's important
24:12let's have a look at that again
24:19new batsman in an absolute concentration required now
24:27no ball
24:28on board the sundries
24:32that's when they're coming back for a second
