[MIB]

Zimbabwe need 105 runs in 91 balls...

 

[MIB]

4.6 Clark to Chibhabha, FOUR!!, fuller length delivery on the stumps, slanting into the right hander, Chibhabha shows the full face of the bat and whacks it straight down the ground for four, over the head of the umpire, as straight as a ramrod!!!

 

[MIB]

one more boundary


5.3 Johnson to Chibhabha, FOUR!!,

 

[MIB]

hahaaa

5.5 Johnson to Chibhabha, FOUR!!

 

[Sheikh]

[MIB]

6.3 Clark to Taylor, FOUR!!

 

[Amjid Javed]

zim 49/1 after 6.2 overs...

 

[MIB]

[Sheikh]

Australia back with a bang!

 

[MIB]

Taibu gone.....

 

[12thMan]

Taibu out

 

[RumiNYC]

[Mercenary]

hmm...where's are those cheerleader ? dont see them in this match.. any idea ppl

It's raining and it's cold, they wont have the same effect dancing with parkas on

 

[12thMan]

hmm...where's are those cheerleader ? dont see them in this match.. any idea ppl

They are dancers. They were there earlier. maybe went under covers because of drizzle

 

[Amjid Javed]

taibu gone to a pearler of a ball.. 55/3 after 8 overs...

 

[Uzi]

Why aren't the umpires giving any wides?

 

[RumiNYC]

It's raining and it's cold, they wont have the same effect dancing with parkas on

i wonder how they gonna look with parka on
well! singin' in the rain isn't bad idea dude...

 

[linuxaddict]

They are dancers. They were there earlier. maybe went under covers because of drizzle

May be they might have gone with Pakistani players...

 

[Pathan007]

zimmy losing. they suck.

 

[linuxaddict]

Come on Zimbwis.. You can do it..

 

[MIB]

9.5 Johnson to Taylor, FOUR!!

[MIB]

Zimbabwe need 73 runs in 60 balls

 

[asifp]

this 20-20 is good entertainment no doubt

 

[RumiNYC]

nice shot! 64 for 3...dont be afraid zimbo's ...it's just australia...

 

[Noman]

I really hope zim win this match..

 

[Noman]

mis field by symiond 2 free runs given..

 

[sagar]

Any bets here?

 

[Noman]

this is a lovely match

 

[Pathan007]

zimbo can't do this. impossible!

 

[linuxaddict]

I hate deciding the winner based on D/L

 

[Noman]

69 need from 56

 

[MIB]

10.2 Clark to Taylor, 2 runs, fuller length delivery outside the off stump, sliding into the right hander, Taylor reaches for it and drives it to cover, misfield by Symonds and look at the duo, they are scurrying through for the second, excellent running!!!

 

[Noman]

out.

 

[sagar]

I say Zimbos win this one.

 

[MIB]

Matsikenyeri, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

 

[Sheikh]

Looking difficult now. Will take something special from here.

 

[iafzal]

Match is in the balance right now 70 needed off 58 balls.

A couple of lusty hits can swing it towards Zimbus way but again Aussies can get a couple of quick wkts to pull it back.

Very interesting game, I wish could see it on TV : (

 

[MIB]

Gilchrist on the road of a record...most dismissal by an keeper in T20..

 

[Pathan007]

done and dusted. Aussie win.

 

[Noman]

running between the wickets from the zim has be awfulll

 

[Uzi]

Zimboks choking here.

 

[OZGOD]

Not really following it as I'm here at work but that's a HUGE wicket!! Zim 4 down and that should put us ahead on D/L.

We may just scrape it in by our fingernails - still very tight though.

 

[Noman]

Australian are infron D/W.. rain has stopped

 

[Oxy]

Aussies may squeeze through on the D/L - Zimbos perilously close to winning this

 

[Lightning]

Oz ahead on D/L.

 

[Pathan007]

Aussie should win by 6runs
