The Beach Cricket World Cup 2003 (story)

Yeah, yeah. Why do I go on. But there are only two games left now, one being the very important third place play-off:
India v England

At a sunny Tenerife, Mark Trescothick looked to continue on his excellent knocks from before as his England side faced India. However, a greatly turning ball from Zaheer found its way into his off stump with the third ball (4 for 1 after 3 balls). Alec Stewart, who failed to hit the runs when needed against Pakistan, now whacked Zaheer and Harbhajan all over the park with a number of boundaries. After the 2nd over, Harbhajan had figures of 0/25 as Stewart had leisurely moved to 37 runs off just 13 balls. Two more fours and a six in the next over moved the English score to 67/1 in 3 overs, and India looked in tatters. Stewart proceeded to his century in 30 balls, and then made a mark on the Tenerife crowd with five consecutive sixes! At the end of the sixth over, he had punished Harbhajan and Zaheer for a total of 151 runs off just 45 balls, bringing England to the fantastic score of 155 for 1 with four overs left. Four successive boundaries in the 7th over brought the scoreboard to 180, and he put 200 up with the 61st ball of the over after a lovely four. Two balls later, he secured his own double century, still with 17 balls to go of the innings. Harbhajan eventually managed to trap him lbw for 208 two balls later, but the damage was already done. Andrew Flintoff hit a boundary-less 26 from 14 balls to bring the English score to a nearly impenetrable 238 for 2.

Sachin Tendulkar had to risk everything chasing this monumental target, and started out well, hitting a four mostly thanks to Mark Trescothick's poor fielding. The first over consisted of three fours and a further thirteen runs, giving India a glimmer of hope. Another three fours were hit in the second over, one of them a spectacular hook that bounced just before the long on boundary, but Craig White limited him to 22 in that over. Tendulkar's first six came with the 20th ball (60 for 0), and with another six and a four, India were in a position to win this (74 for 0 after 3 overs). Two sixes followed in the next over, but Craig White was clearly the better bowler today as he limited Sachin to 21 in the 4th over. With an edged boundary, Tendulkar made 102 on his 34th ball, and England desperately needed a wicket. Instead, Tendulkar punished them further, hitting 31 off poor Andy Caddick. Five consecutive boundaries started the fifth over, four six and one four, and another six plus some runs brought the Indian score to a towering 164 off 6 overs. A fairly poor 7th over, with only 25 runs, gave England some hope, but the fact remained that India only needed 50 off 24 balls. He made the double century with the 59th ball, only to get a thin outside edge to Stewart off the bowling of Flintoff to stop at 203. Still, India only needed 36 from 20, and Rahul Dravid would be the man to provide this. And so he did, in style, hitting fours and sixes all over the park and winning the bronze for India with a splendid forty off ten balls. India's strike rate was 347 in the 4-wicket win - this corresponds to 278 runs!

Add to that his aggression of 1, I believe, and there's something seriously weird with the code :P

Of course, it's South Africa that's playing Pakistan tomorrow, not India...*kicks self repeatedly*

Cheers jamee, how is Pak v Aus coming along?

Anyway, here are the first five overs

The big final! South Africa v Pakistan

Welcome to Sydney, New South Wales, Australia for this Beach World Cup Final!

South Africa, who have been strong so far in this tournament and won all three matches in style, face a Pakistani side where Inzamam has scored 378 runs so far and has been the key member of the line-up

Ntini, who took 4-55 against India a week ago, will surely try to repeat this feat today - the SA bowlers have been very good in this tournament

Pakistan have won the toss, it seems, and Inzamam will have a bat - probably a wise choice on this flat wicket

Pakistan team: Inzamam-ul-Haq*, Rashid Latif+, Abdul Razzaq, Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis
South Africa team: HH Gibbs, MV Boucher+, JH Kallis, SM Pollock*, M Ntini

Ntini is ready with the ball

0.1 Ntini to Inzamam, FOUR, good ball on middle, Inzamam takes a wild slash at it, Gibbs should have caught that at mid off, it flies past him and to the ropes with a bounce, lucky escape there!
0.2 Ntini to Inzamam, two runs, a bit short on leg stump, guided further through with an easy flick, walks both
0.3 Ntini to Inzamam, two runs, again on leg stump, gets a nice controlled edge to it, no chance, down to square leg, stopped at the boundary
0.4 Ntini to Inzamam, two runs, on middle, drives it back past the bowler comfortably
0.5 Ntini to Inzamam, three runs, good ball on leg, well connected and smacks it to mid off, nobody there to gather it
0.6 Ntini to Inzamam, two runs, nice delivery, Inzamam gives it a nice little flick and it's through the leg side for the couple
0.7 Ntini to Inzamam, two runs, gets a thick edge, evades Boucher and runs down gully
0.8 Ntini to Inzamam, FOUR, short ball, charges down the pitch, hammers it to point

Pakistan 21/0 (Inzamam-ul-Haq 21*, 8b, 2x4, 0x6)
Stand of 21
Ntini 8-21-0


1.1 Pollock to Inzamam, two runs, well timed shot and struck well to mid on
1.2 Pollock to Inzamam, three runs, struck on pads, gets it to square leg
1.3 Pollock to Inzamam, one run, on the off, good length, has to push it down gully, Boucher gathers it and only a single
1.4 Pollock to Inzamam, OUT, yorker on middle stump, Inzamam comes forward and tries to heave it, he's beaten and it trickles into his stumps, what a delivery from Pollock, this could be interesting now!

Pakistan 27/1, Stand of 27
Inzamam-ul-Haq b Pollock 27 (12b, 2x4, 0x6)
Pollock 4-6-1


Young keeper-bat Rashid to step in

1.5 Pollock to Rashid, one run, good ball, hits him on his pads, easy single taken
1.6 Pollock to Rashid, one run, gets a thin edge, Boucher can't gather it cleanly as it bounces right in front of him
1.7 Pollock to Rashid, three runs, on leg, a bit short, bounces up to his pads, he flicks it to square leg and runs three very quickly
1.8 Pollock to Rashid, three runs, good ball, struck to mid on, poor fielding there gives Rashid an extra couple

Pakistan 35/1 (Rashid Latif 8*, 4b, 0x4, 0x6)
Stand of 8
Pollock 8-14-1


2.1 Ntini to Rashid, two runs, short ball, well timed, looked to go for a six, well stopped to save valuable runs

2.3 Ntini to Rashid, three runs, off his legs to cover
2.4 Ntini to Rashid, two runs, down the leg side again, gets a nick to it and guides it away from the keeper

2.6 Ntini to Rashid, one run, driven hard past the bowler, well stopped there
2.7 Ntini to Rashid, two runs, gets a thick edge, goes past Boucher, safe
2.8 Ntini to Rashid, three runs, drives it past mid on, no chance for the fielders, stopped at boundary

Stand of 25
Ntini 16-38-0

3.5 Pollock to Rashid, two runs, drives it over the bowler and to long on
3.6 Pollock to Rashid, SIX, fantastic! ball is way too short, steps back and hooks it, that one is on course for New Zealand, what a stroke!

3.8 Pollock to Rashid, two runs, past the bowler and out

Pakistan 72/1 (Rashid Latif 45*, 20b, 1x4, 1x6)
Stand of 45
Pollock 16-34-1


4.1 Ntini to Rashid, FOUR, short again, gets on to it early and whips it to point, no chance for the fielders, crosses the rope

4.3 Ntini to Rashid, FOUR, full toss, smacks it to square leg, bounces once
4.4 Ntini to Rashid, two runs, full ball again, guided away from the keeper and the couple is ripe for the taking
4.5 Ntini to Rashid, three runs, good length ball, drives it a bit uppishly to the on side, nobody can get under it properly and he runs three
4.6 Ntini to Rashid, three runs, fuller ball, same stroke to long on
4.7 Ntini to Rashid, three runs, well pulled to mid off by Rashid, this is turning out nicely for Pakistan
4.8 Ntini to Rashid, one run, tries to heave it to the ropes, well stopped there

Stand of 66
Ntini 24-59-0

Rashid Latif c Gibbs b Pollock 66 (28b, 3x4, 1x6)
Pollock 17-34-2


Abdul Razzaq is the new batsman

5.2 Pollock to Abdul, two runs, good length ball on leg stump, gets a thin edge to veer it away from the keeper

5.5 Pollock to Abdul, one run, full toss, gets a thick edge past the keeper, lucky there, that's 100 up for Pakistan

5.7 Pollock to Abdul, one run, off his pads and runs a quick single

Ntini 32-77-0


Ntini's spell over - ball is given to Kallis

7.1 Kallis to Abdul, one run, good ball on the off, can only hit it back to the bowler, doesn't gather it cleanly and he's safe for now
7.2 Kallis to Abdul, one run, a bit short on leg, can't quite exploit it and he gets hit on the pads, not very impressive

Stand of 46
Kallis 8-15-0


Pollock's last over

8.1 Pollock to Abdul, SIX, stylish! ball is a bit short and a bit wide, steps back before thrashing it to the long on boundary, that ball's gone to the whales, fifty for Abdul in 24 balls!
8.2 Pollock to Abdul, SIX, take that! again! this time ball is way too short, Abdul Razzaq is not one to be asked twice and he smashes it to cover, didn't bounce now either, what a stroke, could these be the winning runs for Pakistan? 150 up anyway
8.3 Pollock to Abdul, one run, better ball but still too wide, edges it past the keeper and wide, lucky escape
8.4 Pollock to Abdul, two runs, short ball again, on leg, Abdul is more benevolent this time, through the leg side and out
8.5 Pollock to Abdul, three runs, well timed shot, well connected towards mid off for three runs
8.6 Pollock to Abdul, three runs, misfielded at point, gets a cheap couple of runs there, SA in all kinds of trouble, can't even field now
8.7 Pollock to Abdul, one run, good ball on the off, tries to smash it but gets a thick edge, lucky escape
8.8 Pollock to Abdul, two runs, safely guided through the leg side

Pakistan 163/2 (Abdul Razzaq 70*, 31b, 2x4, 2x6)
Stand of 70
Pollock 32-71-2


Final over - bet SA would like to get that wicket now

9.1 Kallis to Abdul, SIX, take that! marvellous stuff, a splendid hook past long off and into the crowd, caught by an SA fan who desperately appeals, turned down of course
9.2 Kallis to Abdul, one run, tries to pull it, well stopped at silly mid on
9.3 Kallis to Abdul, FOUR, too wide outside the off, nice stroke, well timed to square leg, runs away to the boundary again
9.4 Kallis to Abdul, two runs, well connected, times it to mid on, nobody can catch it
9.5 Kallis to Abdul, three runs, ball trickles through the legs of Gibbs at mid off
9.6 Kallis to Abdul, one run, edges it past the keeper and takes another run
9.7 Kallis to Abdul, SIX, bang! full toss, steps back, then whips it out to sea, loads of expense for balls here, that's the third one that's been lost in the waves
9.8 Kallis to Abdul, one run, bit of an anticlimax that, pushes it down gully, tries to get the 2nd run which isn't there, innings over

Pakistan 187/2 (Abdul Razzaq 94*, 39b, 3x4, 4x6)
Stand of 94
Kallis 16-39-0

Just testing you out :duh:

Still, good thing that you read it, shows that BBB commentary isn't a total waste of my time the night before physics exam...and since you've been so kind as to point out my mistake, here is the first five SA overs:

*commentary mode on* Welcome back

South Africa chase a not totally unlikely 188 under the sun here in Sydney

England hit 186 against the same attack on a similar pitch at Majorca only last week

Waqar takes the ball from the umpire

Herschell Gibbs makes himself ready for the first delivery

Here we go!

0.1 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, a bit short and thrashed toward mid on, denied at boundary and quickly thrown back to the bowler
0.2 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, wide outside leg, hit further through leg side, easy couple
0.3 Waqar to Gibbs, FOUR, shot! on middle stump, lofted drive with a straight bat, evades the field and trickles away to the long off boundary, nice stuff
0.4 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, short ball, on middle, hit straight back past the bowler to long on
0.5 Waqar to Gibbs, FOUR, and again! too short again, charges down the pitch and plays it nicely to point, no fielder there
0.6 Waqar to Gibbs, SIX, first! pretty good ball but wide outside off, aims for the opera house roof, misses slightly but at least he gets the six
0.7 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, good ball on the off, gets a thick edge to the ball, it evades Rashid and runs away
0.8 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, a bit short, huge pull from Gibbs, hits Inzamam in his stomach and bounces off, some ten metres at least, Wasim gathers it

South Africa 24/0 (HH Gibbs 24*, 8b, 2x4, 1x6, RRR: 164/9 = 18.22)
Stand of 24
Waqar Younis 8-24-0


1.1 Wasim to Gibbs, three runs, full toss, on middle, firm stroke from Gibbs past the mid on fielder
1.2 Wasim to Gibbs, FOUR, full ball again, on the off this time, charges forward and pounces, ball darts past the mid on fielder on the way to the boundary, this is turning out well for SA
1.3 Wasim to Gibbs, three runs, shorter ball, on the off, tiny flick from Gibbs sends it just out of reach for the keeper, it trickles away
1.4 Wasim to Gibbs, one run, sigh of relief from Pakistan as Gibbs push it down gully
1.5 Wasim to Gibbs, two runs, good ball, gets a thick edge, past the keeper and down to third man
1.6 Wasim to Gibbs, one run, flicked off his pads to deep square leg, picked up quickly
1.7 Wasim to Gibbs, FOUR, good length ball on middle, lifts it back to long on with a straight bat
1.8 Wasim to Gibbs, three runs, wide outside leg, steers it to backward square leg with a controlled edge, impossible for the keeper to grab

South Africa 45/0 (HH Gibbs 45*, 16b, 4x4, 1x6, RRR: 143/8 = 17.28)
Stand of 45
Wasim Akram 8-21-0


2.1 Waqar to Gibbs, SIX, short ball, lots of bounce, what a slash backwards, lofted high and over everybody, including the ropes, that was special! 50 up for South Africa and Gibbs after 17 balls
2.2 Waqar to Gibbs, SIX, and again! good length ball, driven back to mid on, over the fielders and the rope, no chance there, impressive batting now
2.3 Waqar to Gibbs, SIX, third! steps back, then hooks it, lots of air under that one, too much for the fielders anyway and it flies into the Pacific
2.4 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, finally some peace and quiet, well timed stroke to mid on
2.5 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, good length ball again, he's up to it, struck to long on and gets the couple
2.6 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, very thick edge that, steered past the keeper to third man
2.7 Waqar to Gibbs, three runs, neat flick off the bat, goes to deep square leg for the three
2.8 Waqar to Gibbs, FOUR, symbolic end to the over, ball is too short, Gibbs charges down the pitch and gets it past point, well struck

South Africa 76/0 (HH Gibbs 76*, 24b, 5x4, 4x6, RRR: 112/7 = 16.00)
Stand of 76
Waqar Younis 16-55-0


3.1 Wasim to Gibbs, one run, good length ball, a bit wide outside off, can only push it down gully for the single
3.2 Wasim to Gibbs, one run, good length ball again, this time better line as well, has to push it down the gully again
3.3 Wasim to Gibbs, three runs, good line and length, well lifted to the on side, over the fielders and he gets three
3.4 Wasim to Gibbs, FOUR, a bit short that, gets down the pitch and meets that one, then turns it nicely to point
3.5 Wasim to Gibbs, SIX, boom! full toss, steps back, thunderous pull to the on side, that one should fall down in Wellington
3.6 Wasim to Gibbs, three runs, good ball, a bit outside leg, firm drive to mid on
3.7 Wasim to Gibbs, SIX, century! ball is short again, outside leg stump, he gets a huge edge and it's gone to deep square leg boundary and beyond, perfect stroke, that's 100 in 31 balls
3.8 Wasim to Gibbs, SIX, and again! this is not going to stop! ball is whipped to the long on boundary, over the fielders and out into the Pacific again

South Africa 106/0 (HH Gibbs 106*, 32b, 6x4, 7x6, RRR: 82/6 = 13.67)
Stand of 106
Wasim Akram 16-51-0

4.2 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, a bit shorter ball, on middle, same stroke from Gibbs gives another two runs
4.3 Waqar to Gibbs, one run, gets hit on the pads and gets the single
4.4 Waqar to Gibbs, SIX, there he goes again! short ball, on the middle, smashes it past the mid on fielders, no chance to grab that, fantastic stroke, was that the winner for SA?
4.5 Waqar to Gibbs, three runs, full toss, on off stump, well timed hook to long on, well stopped at the boundary
4.6 Waqar to Gibbs, two runs, on the off, square cut again and it runs out to third man
4.7 Waqar to Gibbs, SIX, oh my! well timed, hooks it again and it goes to mid on and beyond, gets loads of air under that one
4.8 Waqar to Gibbs, three runs, good ball, another hook, this time stopped at the boundary

South Africa 131/0 (HH Gibbs 131*, 40b, 6x4, 9x6, RRR: 57/5 = 11.40)
Stand of 131

6.1 Waqar to Gibbs, SIX, yet again! a bit short and outside off, marvellous pull lofted to square leg
