00:25And the news from the Adelaide Oval
00:28is that Ricky Ponding has won the toss
00:30and Australia will bat first.
00:33Excellent conditions here.
00:34It's very hot, mind you,
00:35but the pitch is good.
00:36The outfield is perfect
00:38and we're very excited
00:39about this fourth game
00:41in the Commonwealth Bank Series.
00:42Remember, the South Africans 2-1 up.
00:44They have it in their power
00:45to wrap up the series today.
00:47Waiting for us in the commentary box,
00:48Sir Ian Chappell,
00:49Tony Gregg and Bill Lurrie.
00:51Thank you, Mark Nicklaus
00:52and hello to everybody
00:53right around the world
00:53and particularly in Australia
00:54on this great day.
00:56Conditions here at the Adelaide Abel
00:57look perfect.
00:59They are starting to take up
01:01the attack from the city end
01:02to be bowling to Warner and Marsh.
01:05They've made 270 twice
01:07in this series, Australia,
01:08and it hasn't been enough, Tony Gregg.
01:10No, it certainly hasn't
01:11and they're going to find it
01:12pretty tough out there,
01:13the South Africans, I reckon.
01:14It's a little hotter than normal
01:16and they're going to have to
01:18really bowl well here
01:19to keep the Australians down.
01:21They've got that extra bowler,
01:23Mdini Steyn.
01:24They've got Berta for spinners.
01:25Then they've got both the Morkles.
01:27As well
01:29as
01:31Bumini as well
01:31so
01:32plenty of bowling options
01:34but
01:34Marsh has been playing
01:35really well
01:36and he'll want to get him
01:37off to a good start again.
01:45David Warner, the Dynamo,
01:48interested to see how he goes today.
01:50He only knows one way
01:51from what I can see.
01:55Adam Steyn.
01:57Runs, four runs, he's straight
01:59and Marsh gets it away beautifully.
02:01Great start, Ian Chappell.
02:03Yes, hello Bill
02:04and hello to all of our viewers.
02:06Terrific start for Australia
02:07and particularly Sean Marsh.
02:09He's been in excellent form.
02:12I think he's looked very, very assured
02:14so far in this series.
02:15the only thing he would be disappointed about
02:18is the fact that he hasn't
02:19cashed in
02:20and made a century
02:21in such good form.
02:23But it's a good opening combination.
02:26Having Warner at the other end
02:28allows Marsh to play
02:29in his own method,
02:31his own style
02:32and I think they're working
02:34quite well as a combination.
02:40This ground should suit
02:42David Warner
02:43with a short boundary square
02:44of the wicket.
02:44He's a very strong onside player.
02:46We've seen the hooks
02:47and pull shots previously.
02:49He's in good touch.
02:51On the other hand,
02:52Steyn's another one strike
02:53and he'll get the ball
02:54to swing into the left-handers.
02:56There's no breeze at all.
02:57It's very still.
03:00Thanks, Jess.
03:02Hanging the lint
03:04as he comes in
03:05from the City end.
03:06Two slips in.
03:07Supporting the keeper.
03:11Well fielded.
03:22Out!
03:23Straight to Meton.
03:24Big wicket.
03:25That's a very good over
03:26from Natini.
03:27Tied him down.
03:28Mornay Morkel
03:29takes the catch.
03:30Big wicket.
03:31Oh, huge wicket
03:33in the air, unfortunately.
03:34All he had to do
03:35was keep it on the ground.
03:36Straight ball.
03:37First one he's got
03:38and trying to smash it.
03:39Didn't hit it
03:40in the middle of the bat
03:41and taken
03:42no trouble at all.
03:44So,
03:44this is a good start
03:45for South Africa.
03:48It's one for nine.
03:54come off bank series
03:55game four
03:56at the Adelaide Oval.
03:57A big wicket.
03:58Warner's gone for one
03:59and a tiny
03:59to the bowler
04:00now it's
04:00Ricky Ponting
04:02at number three
04:03and the ball's
04:04swinging here
04:05this afternoon.
04:08Tiny's definitely
04:09getting the ball
04:09to swing away
04:10from the left-handers.
04:13Going back
04:14over the wicket
04:14for Ricky Ponting.
04:17That's the two slips in.
04:19Very strong
04:20offside field.
04:38Two wides
04:39in the wicket.
04:40It's one for nine.
04:42One for nine.
04:43One for nine.
04:48Oh, nice inflamed.
04:50The Adelaide Oval.
04:50That'll be four.
04:51Square to the wicket.
04:52Great value for shots.
04:54He looks in
04:55tremendous touch.
04:58Sean Marsh.
04:59Pretty good indicator
05:00when the bowler
05:02even a class bowler
05:03like Stane
05:04just makes
05:05the slightest mistake
05:06and the batsman
05:07punishes him.
05:08He did it
05:09in the first over
05:10with a leg glance.
05:11On that occasion
05:12just flicking
05:13the ball
05:13a bit squarer.
05:15That tells you
05:16if batsman's
05:17in good form
05:18when he
05:18picks off
05:19the mistakes.
05:24Oh, that's even better.
05:25He went for Witt.
05:26Stane
05:26and he hits him
05:27straight through cover.
05:29Oh, this is a beautiful
05:30catch.
05:30It really is
05:31and that was
05:32right into the slot
05:33asking for trouble.
05:34They've got their
05:35fields going quite square
05:36on the offside.
05:37There's a lovely
05:37big gap there
05:38at extra cover
05:39and look at this.
05:41Oh, wonderfully played.
05:43The rest
05:44through the offside field.
05:47Nice and still, isn't it?
05:48Beautifully
05:48beautifully timed.
05:54Oh, it's down to third man.
05:56He's got it.
05:57What a catch.
05:58That is a
05:59ripper of a catch.
06:00A big wicket.
06:01It was Witt.
06:02Marsh went for the
06:03foot of third man
06:04and coming in
06:05and Mornay
06:06what a ripper.
06:08Oh, yes.
06:08It certainly was
06:09a great catch.
06:10They've had their moments
06:11both good and bad
06:12when it comes to
06:13catching the South Africans
06:14but today
06:15they've got off
06:16to a good start.
06:17This was caught
06:17inches above the ground.
06:19It wasn't that good.
06:21It was about
06:21two feet above the ground.
06:23You've never fielded
06:23a third man.
06:24Obviously, that was a ripper.
06:25You've got to pick it up.
06:27He went for it
06:28and all of a sudden
06:28it's two for 17.
06:36Commonwealth Bank
06:37series game four
06:38and what a start
06:39for South Africa.
06:40It's going to have
06:40one to toss
06:422.5 overs
06:43two for 17
06:44both the openers
06:45openers gone
06:46as Michael Hussey
06:47joins Ricky Ponting
06:48who's on strike.
06:50Great catch by
06:51Mockle Nadeep.
06:56Beautiful
06:57fire.
06:58It's Ricky Ponting
06:58at his best.
07:00Yeah, that's the
07:01Ponting cover drive
07:02onto the front foot
07:03very early
07:04and he's got one
07:05away nicely.
07:06The other thing
07:07about the catch
07:08down the boundary
07:09I thought was
07:10the fact that he was
07:11perfectly positioned
07:11as well.
07:13That's a long boundary
07:14down there.
07:14You've got to get
07:14yourself in the right
07:15position just where
07:16the boundary starts
07:18to shorten up
07:18a little bit.
07:20Just watch the
07:20position he's in
07:21here.
07:22Just in the right
07:22place.
07:23He comes in
07:24and does it
07:25quickly.
07:30four more
07:31the boundaries
07:34are flowing
07:34but the rickets
07:35are falling.
07:43Full shot
07:44gets it away.
07:515-8 was gone
07:522-32.
08:00Good start by
08:01South Africa
08:01as a change
08:02in the Compute
08:02team.
08:03It's now
08:03Richard Bonneau,
08:04Mark Taylor
08:04and Ian Hilley.
08:07Thanks Bill.
08:08Ricky Ponting
08:0914 from 19
08:11is on strike
08:12to Makai
08:12Arantini.
08:13That's a good
08:14test for the
08:14outfield
08:15and it's not
08:15that fast.
08:16It is extremely
08:17spongy,
08:19beautifully
08:19carpeted
08:20but not that
08:20fast.
08:21We've seen it
08:21faster than
08:22that ball.
08:23Nice.
08:24Nice.
08:25Nice.
08:26Nice.
08:27Nice.
08:28Nice.
08:28Nice.
08:28Nice.
08:28Nice.
08:29Nice.
08:30Nice.
08:36Nice.
08:37Sometimes it's
08:37slashed away.
08:38Don't worry
08:38about the speed
08:39of the outfield
08:39for that one.
08:42Ponting goes
08:42to 20.
08:45And the pitch
08:46is also very good.
08:48This was not
08:49a half volley
08:49from Makai
08:50Arantini.
08:52Ponting's got
08:52all the confidence
08:53in the pitch
08:54to hit through
08:54the line of the
08:55ball.
08:56That was a pretty
08:56good delivery.
08:57It's wide,
08:57probably a bit
08:58of width would
08:58be the only
08:59error but he's
09:00looking for an
09:01edge.
09:01He's got a
09:02couple of slips
09:02in place and
09:03it doesn't move
09:03off the seam.
09:04Ponting hits
09:05through the
09:05line.
09:08You saw
09:08Mackenzie in
09:09the background
09:09of that last
09:10replay.
09:11He thirsted
09:11his lips as
09:11if there was
09:13an edge to
09:14be offered but
09:15Ponting good
09:15enough to get
09:16the middle of
09:16the bat onto
09:17it.
09:17Now Neil
09:18Mackenzie
09:18himself comes
09:19to a short
09:19cover.
09:20Just one slip
09:22they've deemed
09:23that there's no
09:23sideways movement
09:24off the
09:25wicket and the
09:26slip's not
09:27going to be as
09:28efficient as
09:29short cover.
09:41Quarantini 3.4
09:42overs 1 for
09:4321 it's
09:44expensive but
09:45they've got a
09:45wicket which is
09:46handy.
09:47No one can
09:48work this
09:48summer out.
09:50Ponting's
09:50starting to.
09:54They have as
09:55good a shot as
09:55you'll see from
09:56anyone today.
09:58Beautiful to watch.
10:03This time it's
10:04the favourite
10:04pull shot.
10:05There was a
10:06man there but
10:07he cleared in
10:08comfortably.
10:1014 up the
10:11over 50 up
10:12for Australia.
10:20It is a
10:20furnace here at
10:21the Adelaide
10:22Oval.
10:23Those sombreros
10:23will come in
10:24really handy.
10:25Some sensational
10:26spots to be
10:27seated in the
10:28hill.
10:28If you're in
10:29the shave.
10:30The sun is
10:32danger.
10:32I hope they're
10:34taking as many
10:36precautions as
10:36possible out
10:37there.
10:39Australia not
10:40taking too many
10:40precautions.
10:41They are playing
10:42shots and
10:43boundary after
10:44boundary even
10:45though they're
10:46two down early
10:46in this innings.
10:52Albie
10:53Mauchel now
10:53under the
10:53attack.
10:54Well what the
10:55Australians do
10:56need is what we
10:56talked about before
10:57the start of play.
10:58They need someone to
10:58make a big score
10:59and probably a big
11:00hundred.
11:01Ponting and
11:01Hussey are at the
11:02moment.
11:02They've done it
11:03before.
11:04If you look at the
11:04Australian batting
11:05or they've got Dave
11:06Hussey, Cameron
11:06White and Brad
11:07Haddon to come.
11:08Not a lot of
11:08hundreds in one day
11:09cricket between
11:10those three.
11:11So it really is up
11:12to one of these two
11:12increase to make a
11:13little increase to make
11:13the big score.
11:15Oh Ponting, that's the
11:16second shot like that
11:18in a row from the
11:19cathedral end.
11:20The Carantini's last
11:22ball was last over.
11:23Mauchel, welcome to
11:24the attack.
11:27One of the most
11:28difficult strokes to
11:29play, that last
11:30boundary we showed you
11:31from Ponting, it's
11:32really a pull shot off
11:33the front foot.
11:36Not back and across
11:37and whacking it down
11:38into the ground, but
11:41he's getting his
11:42weight onto the
11:42front foot and then
11:44just a gentle little
11:45nudge.
11:47Oh, it wasn't going
11:48to be long that he
11:49got one on the
11:49front foot down the
11:50ground.
11:52He's been hitting
11:53through the covers
11:53on the front foot,
11:55pulling the ball
11:56square of the wicket
11:56on the leg, so now
11:57the straight drives
11:59in trade.
12:02That's seven
12:03boundaries now for
12:03Ponting, 36 runs.
12:05He is in, oh,
12:08absolute superb
12:09touch, pristine
12:11touch at the moment.
12:13Everything he's
12:14playing, every big
12:15shot he's playing,
12:15he's finding the
12:16middle of the bat.
12:17As a matter of
12:18if it's full of
12:18drives or short
12:20balls, which he's
12:20playing, hook shot
12:22or backward cut,
12:24they're all fine
12:25in the middle of
12:25the bat.
12:30Mauchel's going
12:31onto the bat
12:31nicely too, just
12:33at the right speed.
12:34It's taking some
12:35unbelievable fielding
12:37in the ring, as well
12:38as some good cover
12:38by J.P.
12:39Domini to create
12:40singles.
12:42Seven fours and
12:43just four singles
12:43for Ricky Tonting.
12:46He needs to be in
12:47good touch as well
12:48because this is a
12:49must-win situation
12:50for the Australians.
12:52Even that stroke,
12:54which the fielder
12:55just managed to get
12:56to was perfectly
12:57timed.
12:58But he has a
12:59must-win job for
13:00the Australians
13:00course, and
13:01South Africa
13:02very, very much
13:04on top before
13:04today.
13:06Hussie now
13:07drives into the
13:08gap as well.
13:09It's the longest
13:09part of that
13:10leg-side boundary.
13:11It's a good
13:12chase.
13:14He gets it,
13:15but more than
13:16likely Tonting
13:17pushes for four
13:18and goes.
13:22Albie Mauchel
13:23under the pump.
13:25Clip 66.
13:35Oh, well, I wonder
13:37oh, what a direct
13:39hit would have
13:40done for Michael
13:41Hussie.
13:43One stump to
13:44Amat for
13:45Herschel Gibbs.
13:47He's side-on,
13:48he's brilliant,
13:48but on this
13:49occasion he missed.
13:52Well, it was the
13:53fact that he was
13:54so quick in the
13:55field that
13:55caused the
13:56problem
13:57between the
13:58batsmen
13:58and he had
13:59Hussie gone
14:00by miles
14:01if he could
14:01have produced
14:02the hit.
14:02It wasn't
14:03time for
14:04De Villiers
14:05to get up
14:05there, so
14:06Gibbs had to
14:06do it on
14:07his own.
14:19That is
14:2015 for
14:21Ricky Ponting.
14:23It's a
14:23lovely innings,
14:24it's a
14:25free innings.
14:28Who knows how
14:29important it
14:30will become.
14:37Solid
14:37acknowledgement
14:38all around the
14:39ground here.
14:41His shots have been
14:42all around the
14:43ground.
14:43He loves batting
14:44down here at
14:44Gipotter.
14:45There's not too many
14:45venues, he doesn't
14:46like scoring a big
14:47one on.
14:56No ball against
14:58Moneimorkel.
15:03Here we go.
15:06da-da-da-da-da.
15:09Let's see where
15:10Mike Cussie can
15:11plant this one.
15:12He's not got
15:14great fluency in
15:15his innings and
15:15if you want
15:16something to help
15:16fluency, it's
15:17maybe getting a
15:18free hit.
15:19Having an ability
15:20to have a
15:24real crack.
15:26his slogging line
15:28or his big
15:29hitting line
15:29should I say
15:30is to
15:31Kaukona.
15:35About there
15:36by Gisleiter.
15:38Yeah,
15:39right there.
15:40That's his arc.
15:42And he doesn't
15:43miss out.
15:44That's an
15:44impressive blow.
15:46Two for
15:4693.
15:54Yeah,
15:55well been done
15:55in him.
15:57Gisleiter was
15:58just imploring
15:59Mbaha to give
16:00that out.
16:01Not sure
16:02Pondi looks very
16:03happy at the
16:03non-strikers end.
16:05Hussey is
16:06livid.
16:06He's storming
16:07off.
16:07But South
16:08Africa have a
16:08breakthrough.
16:10learned his
16:11lesson from
16:12what happened
16:12previously.
16:13They didn't
16:14ask very
16:15firmly with
16:16their appeal.
16:17He did.
16:18And he got
16:19the yes out
16:20of umpire
16:20Harper.
16:21Hussey is
16:24gone.
16:25It's three
16:25for 110.
16:45That's
16:45what I feel.
16:46Dormany
16:47again.
16:48Yes,
16:49they'll keep
16:49the pressure
16:49on David
16:51Hussey here.
16:52Try and keep
16:53him on strike.
16:54Ponding
16:5463 off
16:5569.
16:56He's had a
16:56lot of
16:57dot balls.
16:57He's hit
16:57nine fours
16:58and it's
16:5863.
16:59So the
17:00boundary
17:01balls,
17:01they've
17:02bowled a
17:02pretty good
17:02line.
17:02I thought
17:03Mornay
17:03Morkle
17:04bowled a
17:04brilliant
17:04spell.
17:05Five
17:05overs,
17:06none
17:06for 27
17:06putting
17:07one
17:07six
17:07after
17:08no
17:08ball.
17:16I think
17:17what we
17:17have
17:17seen
17:18right
17:18throughout
17:19the
17:19summer
17:19is that
17:20the
17:21South
17:21avidians
17:21keep
17:22at you
17:22all the
17:22times.
17:23They're
17:23always
17:24looking
17:24for a
17:24wicket.
17:24They're
17:24always
17:24looking
17:25to
17:25change
17:25the
17:25game.
17:26That's
17:26where
17:26I
17:27think
17:27things
17:28have
17:28changed
17:28slightly
17:28from
17:29say
17:29four
17:29or
17:29five
17:29years
17:30ago
17:30when
17:30other
17:31sides
17:31came
17:31here
17:31on
17:32flat
17:32pitches

17:35balls
17:35he'd
17:35go on
17:36make
17:36100
17:36easy.
17:37Now
17:37he
17:37still
17:37has
17:37to
17:38work
17:38for
17:38those
17:38next
17:3850
17:39runs
17:39and
17:40that's
17:40been
17:40the
17:40difference
17:40in
17:41this
17:41South
17:41African
17:41side
17:42is
17:42that

19:44tell you
19:45with
19:455
19:46down
19:49in the
19:50air
19:50just
19:50wide
19:51just
19:51wide
19:53and it'll
19:54go all
19:54the way
19:55to the
19:55boundary
19:55for 4
19:57oh you'll
19:58like this
19:58shot here
19:59it wasn't
19:596 up
20:00but it was
20:01a boundary
20:01thrashed his
20:02way through
20:02the shot
20:02but there
20:03was some
20:04real positive
20:04intent here
20:05from David
20:05Hussey
20:06it's a great
20:07illustration
20:07of what
20:08Bojta's
20:08got over
20:09them
20:09the quick
20:10comes back
20:10on
20:10and they
20:11play with
20:11the energy
20:12I'm talking
20:12about
20:12they just
20:13cannot
20:13play with
20:13that energy
20:14and intensity
20:15against
20:16Johan Bojta
20:17good shot
20:25there's a good
20:26shot
20:26and sound
20:28look at that
20:29that's a slower
20:30ball
20:30wider
20:30and Hussey
20:31slices it
20:32straight to the
20:32man
20:34oh dear
20:35that's the softest
20:35missile
20:36Nib's coming in
20:37there
20:37he doesn't
20:38drop many
20:39they've just got to
20:40be in the vicinity
20:41and here we go
20:42a little
20:42off cutter
20:43and just opens
20:45the face
20:45of the bat
20:45there
20:46and straight
20:47to him
20:47soft
20:48dismissal
20:50yeah
20:51this is why
20:51the Australians
20:52are in trouble
20:53too many
20:54easy easy
20:55wickets
20:55he's another
20:56one being
20:57given away
20:57Hussey
20:5824
20:586 for
20:59151
21:00now
21:26a partnership of 37
21:29between Cameron White
21:30and James
21:31hopes
21:31in the face of
21:32some very smart
21:33bowling for the South
21:34Africans today
21:35there's a huge crowd
21:36in here at the Adelaide
21:37Oval
21:38it's always a day of
21:39great celebration
21:42that is out
21:43all that talking
21:45and waiting
21:46and shall we
21:47or shan't we
21:48is irrelevant
21:48for Cameron White
21:50board at the wicket
21:51of Dale Stane
21:53who's had an excellent summer
21:57that's not what Australia wanted
21:58with a power play lurking
22:00they really wanted Cameron White
22:03out there
22:03to take advantage
22:04of that power play
22:05but he won't be now
22:06once again
22:07Stane's done the trick
22:08for South Africa
22:097 for 188
22:22oh dear me
22:23Mitchell Johnson's gone as well
22:28a duck for Mitchell Johnson
22:30a disaster for the Australians
22:36this is turning into
22:37one of the most surprising
22:38and unlikely innings
22:39you'd imagine
22:42one stage
22:43two for 110
22:44now eight
22:46for 189
23:00in the air
23:01and that'll find
23:02the boundary rope
23:03definitely
23:04it'll go over the boundary rope
23:05in fact
23:07and all timing
23:09from James Hopes
23:10the Queenslander
23:11keeps the Aussie Hopes alive
23:33that's the catch of the day
23:34to go with the shot of the day
23:35he does
23:36he just transfers
23:37his feet out there
23:38now he's slashing one away
23:39for the offside
23:47they're not going to get out LB
23:50there he goes
23:51over extra car
23:52he gets enough on it
23:53certainly does
23:54there's a little
23:55his foot is
23:58good controlled shot
24:02the current 10
24:04he's lightly erring
24:05this time
24:05on the full side
24:06enough for James
24:07Hopes to get the middle of the bat
24:09onto it
24:10powerfully
24:11he's certainly on the move
24:20continual frustration
24:21with the starts
24:22no one going on
24:23to get the big one
24:24to something
24:26that Ricky Ponning
24:27said at the start
24:27of the match
24:28but anyway
24:28this contribution
24:29from James Hopes
24:30would just make things
24:32a little bit more positive
24:33during the break
24:34there's four overs remaining
24:35one more over of this
24:37batting power play
24:43that's a good shot
24:44oh he didn't get hold of it
24:45I thought it was over the infield
24:47it's toe end
24:49didn't go anywhere
24:50McKenzie swallows it
24:51that extra cover
24:55they're doing well
24:56the South Africans
24:57once again
24:57they've got their fieldsmen
24:59staying on the edge
25:00of the circle
25:00on these final few overs
25:03if you're hunting in there
25:04looking for a single
25:05that goes over your head
25:06and it's four
25:07McKenzie stays on the circle
25:08takes the catch comfortably
25:10the danger man is out
25:11Hopes
25:12nine for 216
25:13Australia
25:16it's interesting looking at those
25:19runs scored
25:20and wickets lost
25:20to the power plays
25:21again by Australia
25:22they're not too bad
25:23now bear in mind
25:25that batting power play
25:26has just been taken
25:27when Australia
25:27had lost all wickets
25:28so it's not too bad
25:30they're averaging around
25:31about six runs per over
25:32in those overs
25:32the problem for Australia
25:33has been outside those overs
25:35when there's been five men
25:36pushed back
25:37they haven't been able to get
25:38the four or five runs per over
25:40that they would normally get
25:44down the ground he goes
25:45he finally makes
25:46decent contact
25:49he'll come back for three
25:51three valuable runs
26:01just finishing off that point
26:02I thought the same thing
26:03in Sydney
26:04last game
26:05that Australia played
26:06is that they
26:06the power play overs
26:07we've talked a lot about them
26:08and what you should do
26:09and how many runs
26:10you should get
26:10when the field are up
26:11when the field gets pushed back
26:13it's been Johan Boerter
26:14who's been able to
26:15pick up wickets
26:16go for around about
26:17three runs per over
26:18in the last two games
26:19and really change the game
26:21he did it today
26:22with the Mike Hussey dismissal
26:24and so it hasn't
26:25it's been those orthodox overs
26:27those 30 overs
26:28when the field were all out
26:29that Australia's really
26:30struggled with
26:31and that's probably because
26:33they're missing
26:33Michael Clarke
26:34and Andrew Simons
26:36in those middle overs
26:37to push hard
26:38to work the ones
26:39and twos
26:40and hit the odd boundary
26:41they're the sort of players
26:42that I think Australia
26:43have sorely missed
26:51it's a good delivery to finish
26:52and there's an appeal
26:53and he's been given
26:54Darrell Harper
26:55heard something
26:56and believes it was a nick
26:58there wasn't a strong deviation
27:00there weren't seen
27:01noise there's no doubt about it
27:03and Australia's innings
27:05comes to an end
27:06at the end of the 48th over
27:10for 222
27:13there wasn't much of an appeal
27:14was there
27:15just a half-eyed
27:16into the last
27:17from the keeper
27:17seems to me though
27:19that there was probably
27:20a noise there
27:22so Hilfenhaus
27:23is the man out
27:24caught behind
27:25off
27:25Morgal
27:26once more
27:27Morgal
27:27for five
27:29well
27:29all out
27:30for 222
27:34two over short
27:35as well
27:35just add it to the twos
27:37well welcome back
27:55to the Adelaide Oval
27:56for the South African
27:57run chase
27:57Sean Tate's ready to go
27:59Hashimamla is on strike
28:03straight away
28:04he's away
28:04that could well be a boundary
28:09Sean Marshall
28:10keep it to
28:12well
28:12it was to two
28:14and I tell you
28:14a good throw
28:16may have had
28:16Herschel Gibbs
28:17in a bit of trouble
28:20well that's the problem
28:21in going very quickly
28:22from one ground
28:22to another
28:23different dimensions
28:24and the short
28:25square boundaries
28:26here
28:26a really strong arm
28:28you've seen
28:31position teams
28:32coming into
28:32Australia
28:33that's when
28:34get caught out
28:35because the judgment
28:35is different
28:36to say the SCG
28:40just to recap
28:41for those people
28:41who may not have
28:42been with us earlier
28:43Australia
28:43won the toss
28:44batted first
28:45made 222
28:48South Africa
28:48the target
28:49it's 223
28:50to win the series
28:53that'll be an extra run
28:54to the total
28:56none for four now
28:57Australia need wickets
28:58that's the bottom line
29:00we certainly believe
29:01this is a good
29:02Adelaide batting pitch
29:04outfield is
29:04well it's quick enough
29:06it's not as quick
29:06as it could be
29:07but it's beautiful
29:08it's very smooth
29:09and flat
29:10it's good for batting
29:11good batting conditions
29:12Australia need to bowl
29:14South Africa out
29:15there to keep
29:16this series alive
29:18it's always amazing
29:19when you walk out
29:20in the turf
29:20in the Adelaide Oval
29:21it's like carpet
29:22it's as flat as that
29:23it's an incredible place
29:25to play cricket
29:25but I think in terms
29:26of batting conditions
29:27it doesn't get much better
29:28there seems to be
29:34good pace in the pitch
29:37consistency of bounce
29:38there's no doubt
29:39that 222 is underdone
29:41by the Australians
29:43they'll be trying
29:44everything in this
29:45opening phase
29:46to use the new ball
29:48I suppose
29:48when it comes to
29:49someone like Sean Tate
29:51I hope he doesn't
29:52try too hard
29:53to find pace
29:54still got to keep
29:55the direction
30:09we saw an excellent
30:11performance by South Africa
30:12in the field
30:12particularly with the ball
30:21oh that's beautiful
30:23it's an out swinger
30:25that's also a boundary
30:26that's the classic
30:28extra cover drive
30:31I love watching this guy
30:33bat
30:33you know I mention
30:34the word instinct
30:34well I think that's
30:35all he operates on
30:36actually
30:36if he's out there
30:37for any length of time
30:41like we saw at the SCG
30:43he will secure victory
30:45for South Africa
30:48and now over cover
30:50one bouncing over the fence
30:53and Herschel gives us
30:54in a hurry
31:01there's a little bit of
31:02swing there for Hilfenhaus
31:06oh lovely
31:07lovely Herschel Gibbs
31:09he's back in form
31:10he's great to watch
31:11when he's in this sort of form
31:14well he's relaxed
31:15that is definitely
31:16the difference
31:17when he came back
31:18into the side
31:19after all his
31:20well publicised problems
31:21and the rehab period
31:23he really was caught
31:24the twixt of between
31:26really almost tried
31:27too hard
31:28too determined
31:28to stay in
31:29and prove that he was
31:30still a valuable cricketer
31:32never mind
31:32just a valuable person
31:33now he's relaxed again
31:36now over the onside
31:39alright
31:41worrying times
31:43for the Australians
31:47oh ho ho
31:49there's Gibbs again
31:49once again
31:51through the offside
31:54five fours already
31:55to Gibbs
31:55all off
31:56Ben Hilfenhaus
31:58standard to deliver
31:59stuff from Gibbs
32:00he'll plan on the front
32:01foot
32:02doesn't matter
32:02where that front foot
32:03is
32:03he just moves to the ball
32:05he's got a great eye
32:06but there
32:07he's just trusting the bounce
32:08the consistency out there
32:11and he threads it through
32:18there he goes again
32:19that'll be four more
32:21he won't track that down
32:22it's not perfectly timed
32:23but he swung hard
32:25big thick inside edge
32:27and he's looking to try and bash
32:29Hilfenhaus out of the attack
32:31none for forty after six
32:39he could be out
32:40and should be out
32:41Midoff should get this
32:42he's got him
32:43now the record falls
32:44it's Gibbs trying to hit
32:45Pippenhaus down
32:46the ground has gone for thirty
32:47out but he's done some damage
32:48for the big record
32:52oh that's a huge wicket
32:55and Gibbs will be very angry
32:57with himself
32:58charging down the wicket
32:59they're comfortably
33:01doing it at the moment
33:02no real necessity to do this
33:08and easily taken as well
33:10so Hussie
33:12Michael Hussie takes the catch
33:13Gibbs for thirty-eight
33:15gone
33:18Commonwealth Bank Series
33:19going forward
33:20a big one for Australia
33:21they must win it
33:22they've got a wicket
33:23it's one for fifty-eight
33:24the target two hundred and twenty-three
33:26the informed Jack
33:28how else comes to the crease
33:29a true professional
33:32for every ball in the Samaritan
33:33he won't hustle too much
33:34I'll try and back through
33:35the fifty overs
33:36if they need that many
33:40yes it'll be interesting
33:41to see now how
33:42Hashim Amlik goes
33:44about his business
33:47he's been very subdued
33:49sixteen of twenty-seven deliveries
33:51he's capable himself
33:54so Callas out there
33:55he's out there
33:56because Gibbs
33:58tried to smash
33:59Hilfenhaus down the ground
34:02charged and hit
34:03but he lost the grip
34:05on his back there
34:05actually
34:07easily taken
34:12it's up to him
34:13oh it's red hot
34:15Sean Nash
34:16it's square leg
34:17got both hands
34:18so that was a cool shot
34:19and it goes for four
34:22we were saying
34:23before the start
34:24of this innings
34:25that the Australians
34:26had to bowl well
34:26and every catch
34:28must be taken
34:29every opportunity
34:31might he have picked
34:32that up late
34:33in the crowd
34:34in the background
34:36didn't seem to me
34:37as though
34:37he got his eyes
34:38focused on it
34:39in the first few yards
34:47he's gone
34:47trying to work
34:49through the gap
34:49on the outside
34:50Marsh takes the catch
34:51that's a big record
34:53bit too aggressive
34:55Jack Callas
34:55he knew there was
34:56an onside field
34:57he went to the off
34:58he hit it straight
34:58down his throat
35:00Marsh will be quite
35:00relieved about this
35:01because that last one
35:03that hit him on the elbow
35:04you can see there
35:05that he's still
35:06thinking about that
35:07he'd be happy
35:08he saw this one
35:09all the way though
35:10no trouble at all
35:11caught at mid-wicket
35:12that's a big wicket
35:14so Callas gone now
35:15caught Marsh
35:16bold hopes for 13
35:17two for 79
35:22Pervilious
35:22wicketkeeper
35:23batsman at the crease
35:35that's a great shot
35:37it's a third timer
35:38of the ball
35:39that's when you're
35:40looking for another
35:40dot ball
35:41he cuts
35:41sleuth for four
35:42five up the over
35:43two for 84
35:45now Ricky Ponting
35:46follows what he's
35:47normally doing
35:48he'll have Mitchell
35:49Johnson on next over
35:52oh dear oh dear
35:54what a magnificent shot
35:56this football was
35:57on off stunt
35:58or thereabouts
35:58he's just whipped
35:59it through square leg
36:00for four
36:02what a wonderful shot
36:03just a roll
36:05of the wrist
36:05and didn't smash
36:07it away
36:07just eased it away
36:09past square leg
36:19that's in the air
36:19and it's over the top
36:20of mid-off
36:21no one's going to get
36:22to that one
36:27they'll end up running
36:28three
36:29boy that did go up
36:30a long way
36:32and Dumini gives
36:34the ball even more
36:34air than Borta
36:35and a bit more
36:37of a root as well
36:40yes both those
36:42bowlers the
36:42South Africans
36:43have turned the ball
36:45quite a bit
36:46this is not a pitch
36:48where there's a
36:49great deal of spin
36:51beautiful batting track
37:03so Hashim Amla
37:05has just registered
37:06his half century
37:10with that drive
37:11over the top
37:12of mid-off
37:12for three
37:21yes they seem
37:22to be happy
37:22with the way
37:22he's going
37:23two for 141
37:27that's six
37:28that's over the top
37:29all the way
37:30for six
37:30beautifully played
37:31pretty ordinary
37:32delivery mind you
37:33break long
37:34and take that
37:36so Dumini
37:37gets his
37:3715 with a six
37:39correction
37:45well this is the
37:47de Villiers
37:47of the Perth
37:48test match
37:49this is the
37:49de Villiers
37:50who started
37:51the series
37:51the test series
37:52in such
37:53magnificent form
37:58a great gift
37:59to score
38:00all around
38:00the wicket
38:00and therefore
38:01the run rate
38:03continues to
38:05tick over
38:06without any
38:06threat at all
38:0715 from that
38:08over
38:09Hussey
38:09too short
38:10it's
38:10two for 164
38:18go fetch
38:19that

38:26is looking
38:26down at his
38:27boot laces
38:30yes he didn't
38:30move
38:31did he
38:31this is the
38:32shot that was
38:32played
38:33Marsh is down
38:34there
38:34he's had
38:35trouble
38:35once
38:35dropped a
38:36catch
38:36on the
38:36other side
38:37of the
38:37ground
38:37but have
38:38a look
38:38at it
38:38you can
38:39see him
38:39there
38:39standing
38:39there
38:39not
38:40moving
38:40at all
38:40never
38:41picked it
38:41up
38:41at any
38:42stage
38:43just watch

38:44background

38:45the ball
38:45going down
38:45there
38:46and out
38:46of your
38:46picture
38:47is Marsh
38:52so that's
38:53so that's
38:53extremely good
38:54news
38:56he's got
38:57half a
38:58chance
38:58at the
38:58Perth
38:58weekend
38:59and
39:00Simon's
39:00played
39:01club
39:01cricket
39:01at the
39:02weekend
39:02Brett
39:02Lee's
39:02going to
39:03be a
39:03little
39:03longer
39:04it's worth
39:05remembering
39:05that those
39:06men are
39:06missing at
39:06the moment
39:07from Ricky
39:07Fonding's
39:08team
39:11oh he's
39:12into the
39:12gap
39:12again
39:12and that's
39:13gone into
39:13the boundary
39:15boy
39:15nice timing
39:16there as
39:17well
39:17the
39:18million is
39:18just opening
39:19the face
39:19and getting
39:19it straight
39:20into the
39:20gap
39:28now
39:29Emlar
39:29gets run
39:30away
39:30that gap
39:31is only
39:31five or
39:32six metres
39:32wide
39:33and he
39:33finds it
39:34easily
39:36Ricky Fonding
39:37didn't even
39:38bother
39:38once
39:39he saw
39:39it going
39:39past him
39:40he knew
39:40where it
39:41was headed
39:42it was a
39:43very disappointing
39:44day for
39:45Ricky Fonding
39:47Australia
39:47were well
39:48placed at
39:49one stage
39:50when he
39:50was going
39:51going along
39:52nicely
39:52and then
39:53absolutely
39:54collapsed
39:55and South
39:56Africa
39:56have really
39:57piled it
39:57on
40:13sensational
40:13job that
40:14Alan Borda
40:14was able to
40:15do
40:15under duress
40:16at times
40:17but
40:18yeah
40:18but I think
40:18you've been a bit
40:19harsh there
40:19I think
40:19test series
40:20could have
40:20gone either
40:20way
40:21there were
40:21days where
40:21Australia won
40:22the test
40:22match
40:23and South
40:23Africa won
40:24the next
40:25day
40:26swinging to
40:27and fro
40:28I think
40:28I'm not so
40:29concerned with
40:30the test
40:30match
40:30and feel
40:30close to
40:31come back
40:31but I think
40:32they've won
40:32days
40:32they've got
40:33a lot of it
40:36a pair of
40:37and a pair
40:3880s
40:38Amla's off
40:39100 balls
40:39Daviliers
40:40off just
40:4081 balls
40:43getting the
40:43South
40:44Africans
40:44to
40:44within reach
40:454 to win
40:4613 overs
40:47remaining
40:48so they are
40:49heading for
40:49what everyone
40:50expected was
40:51going to be
40:52needed by the
40:52Australians
40:53about 300
40:55and Ben
40:56Hilfenhouse
40:56in his
40:56eighth
40:57he starts
40:57he replaces
40:59Mitchell
40:59Johnson
40:59oh
41:00weather
41:01that's a
41:02harming
41:07looks to me
41:08as though
41:09Ben
41:09Hilfenhouse
41:10has just
41:10dropped
41:11his
41:12hand a bit
41:14and
41:15looking to
41:16swing the
41:17ball
41:17out
41:18I reckon
41:19could be
41:20the theory
41:21behind it
41:22but I'm not
41:23sure it's
41:24the right
41:24release point
41:25for him
41:26to out swing
41:32oh no
41:32no injury
41:33at this stage
41:34Mahasim

44:27it
44:52it's been a very
44:53impressive performance
44:55from south africa
44:56they've just got
44:56stronger and
44:57stronger as the
44:58series has gone
44:59on and they've
45:01just gradually
45:02got on top of
45:03Australia mentally
45:06they've lost
45:07the final test of
45:09the series
45:09after they've won
45:10the series
45:11it'll be interesting
45:12to see how they

45:14but certainly
45:15the way they've
45:17attained this

45:19a big advantage
45:20over Australia

45:24well there seems
45:25we've seen a lot
45:26in Australia
45:27in the last decade
45:29but more likely
45:31in the darker green
45:32of Australia
45:32than the bottled green
45:34of the Proteus

45:36managed
45:37they've been
45:37extremely accessible
45:38to the media

45:40public
45:41they've been well
