Hey Boon, Haydn a bit slow out the box.
That's a good shot, that's where David Boon is strong.
Donald getting off line for the first time.
He had to very fast, look at Haydn go between the wickets.
Happy with three.
David Boon plays superbly anywhere around about leg stump,
either straight or square.
But I'm not convinced he's a great one day barber yet.
He's quite inaccurate.
And quite costly.
Good shot that one from Haydn.
Nicely played through the offside field.
Donald just giving him a little bit of room.
And the crowd enjoying it now.
I think these Aussies realise they've got to start moving.
Seven off the over, no wicket for fourteen.
If there is.
Beautiful shot, that'll be four.
That's where he's strong.
Beautiful drive from Matthew Haydn.
Either through the off or on sides.
Superb stroke.
Leave him behind.
That's a magnificent shot.
Let's have another look at it.
Right into the gap on the offside.
Slightly over pitched.
Hit it on the up and that went flying through the gap.
David is bothered by those drives.
He's going around the wicket now.
In fact he's gone back over again.
He's looking to go around the wicket.
As Richard Snell did the other night.
Nicely played.
That's a single.
Good shot, beautifully placed.
This wide of the man, a third man.
Occasional pick up by Donald.
Haydn coming back to the third.
It's going to be close.
It's close.
The throw was a fraction wide.
Rescue third run.
Donald very slow picking up that ball.
And Haydn was back for what could have been a very close third run.
Haydn gets the feeling that things are going along too slowly.
Watch this.
The ball was fumbled actually.
And that's what made Haydn go.
He then turned around.
He's got a good arm, Donald.
But he was off line here.
Watch this.
The wicket keeper has to drag it down.
In comes the bat now.
And home he is.
One of the things the South Africans have done well.
They've kept the ball relatively well pitched up.
It's beautifully driven.
That's four more.
This is a very good start by Haydn and Boone.
Nine off the over.
It's no wicket for 31.
It's a good afternoon to Michael Whitney and Ian Chappell.
Gone.
Well caught at mid on Richard Snell.
And we've seen Matthew Haydn get caught at mid on a number of times in one day matches.
Yes, that's a sad blow for Australia.
Matthew Haydn really starting to look the goods there.
But we've seen him dismissed a number of occasions like this.
Hitting across the line of the ball.
Spooning a catch up there to mid on.
Australia loses its first wicket.
A jubilant Alan Donald.
Matthew Haydn goes for 16.
Australia are one for 33.
There's no doubting what the Australian public think of Dean Jones as a one day cricketer.
The selectors may have ignored him for a while.
But the crowd are delighted to have Dean Jones back on the Australian side.
And they've let him know at every ground that he's played at since he's made his comeback to the Australian side.
Dean Jones just working that one down the leg side for an easy single.
There's Dean Jones' record once again.
Absolutely phenomenal.
Nearly 6,000 one day international runs.
In the air and straight to point.
Johnny Rhodes accepts the chance.
So just when Australia looked as though they were getting on top via Boone and Haydn.
Those two gentlemen are now back in the pavilion.
And David Boone will also be disappointed with that.
Usually he's bread and butter.
That one maybe just bounced a little bit or was a little bit slower than what he expected.
And he spooned the ball square to point where that man, Johnny Rhodes, does not miss a trick.
The 11th over.
Australia are two for 35.
Mark Waugh gets his runs very quickly.
But his history as a one day player, his best performances, in other words his big scores scored quickly,
have all come when he's either opening the batting or playing at number three.
Mark Taylor wouldn't be getting much joy out of this position of 12th man.
Trotting the gloves out there for Dean Jones.
Lovely shot.
One of his best.
Mark Waugh plays absolutely beautifully off his pads.
That was a gem.
In the commentary position now Sir Richard Hadley and Richie Benno.
Pretty well played by Dean Jones.
Bit of extra bounce there.
And he's got to the advantage of running the first one very quickly even though he is blocked out a bit by Snell.
Another few missed fields out there by Pat Simcox.
Fielding down there on the third man boundary.
Woody Cronier will not be happy with that.
Probably took his eye off it a little bit.
But generally the standard of fielding has been very good.
The South African is certainly very alert in the field and need to be as well.
One minor blemish there.
There's that leg cutter again.
It's two for 50.
Yeah.
I want the news behind the news.
Everybody has their views.
But what's racing?
Well nice to be with you again.

Drink session is completed here at the SCG.
2 for 50 Australia.
Hayden out for 16.
Boone for 14.
Brian McMillan is the bowler now.
Mark War the batsman.
War will get back for the third.
That was a good performance from Alan Donald.
Two wickets in his sixth over.
Still has four to bowl.
Dean Jones has taken strike.
And that's wide of the band with the third man.
That's a good shot for four.
Ten overs.
Have to be very welcome in the Australian dressing room.
Certainly a good shot by Jones.
I don't think Alan Border would be delighted to have won the toss and take advantage of batting out there.
I think first use of the pitch in the series to date.
The team batting first has won on eight occasions.
No shot.
All right.
Challenge issued by Dean Jones.
Let's see what McMillan can do about it.
Dean Jones certainly now getting into his stride with a couple of boundaries off his over.
And beautiful shots too.
He's a class player, Dean Jones.
And you know that his one day record's quite outstanding.
And either he gets another opportunity and test cricket remains to be seen.
I still think that Australian cricket could do with him.
So there's a change in the field there.
A slip has now come in.
Very wide slip.
Probably standing in the third slip position there.
Just to really eliminate Dean Jones' chance of running the ball down to that third man area.
Whoops.
Ouch.
That might stop Dean Jones from saying a few words out in the middle.
Got that one in the nose or the cheek.
In the commentary box now, Tony Gregg.
And alongside him is Ian Chapman.
Mark Ward, 26 balls for his 19.
He's been the most comfortable of the batsmen out there.
Jones is a little less comfortable.
47 balls for his 26, unlike him.
And you can see Simcox, the gangly off spinner now, into the action.
It's a slightly slower one and nicely played.
He can't afford to be short there.
Smashed away to the boundary.
That's the shorter of the two boundaries.
And it's also the 50 partnership.
Brings up the 100 for Australia.
With Mark Ward and Dean Jones there and both of them well set now.
South Africa are getting to the point where they need to get another wicket.
Otherwise Australia could start to really build that rate again.
Oh, and could this be close?
Back he goes and in the way of the ball there.
That didn't hit the stumps.
Jones wanting one.
Ward sent him back.
Two for 106.
It's Cronier bowling his fifth over.
He's already got five overs out of Simcox.
In the air and dropped him.
That is a dolly.
Well, I can't believe it.
Cullinan has gone up in the air.
May have gone up just a little bit early.
But this should have been caught.
Darryl does it again.
We've seen him put some down during this summer.
In the commentary box now Bill Lorry and with him Mike Whitney.
It's well driven.
They've got that go all the way.
Simcox is slow.
It's just slowing up.
They could run for it.
Here comes Jones.
Not prepared to take them on and rightly so.
This one you'll get the run rate.
You'll see there that when you lose a wicket or two,
it slows it down.
34 overs, two for 130.
Alan Donald coming back into the attack.
Alan Donald picked up Mark War.
A vital wicket on Friday night.
50 for Dean Jones.
His third this series.
Raised his back to the hill.
Out to the Bill O'Reilly stand.
A very appreciative Sydney crowd.
Dean Jones has burst back into the scene.
Played some very good one day innings.
Since he's been selected back into the Australian side.
Wide.
Donald does occasionally get the feeling.
He struggles a bit as he goes.
It's actually hard to pace.
That's the 100 partnership for Mark War and Dean Jones.
Bill O'Reilly is back into the attack.
Looking for wickets South Africa.
50 for Mark War.
A very timely half century by Mark War.
Absolutely brilliant player.
One of the favourite sons of this crowd here at the SCG's home ground.
All warmly applauded.
Two for 139 after 36 overs.
Alan Borda won the toss and lifted to bat.
Alan Donald continues.
It's well hit.
It's beautifully played.
Found the gap in the air.
That's what's needed.
It's a well timed shot.
He's very strong at the back foot.
That's his best score this summer in the one day internationals.
He's in 56.
That's a better shot.
That clears the man.
That's going to call it.
That's a better shot.
That clears the man.
That's going to call more.
Taking them on.
That's what you need to do to Alan Donald.
Here's the quickness of the bowlers.
He's coming onto the bat.
That's good intelligent batting.
Just at the right time.
Beautifully priced and beautifully timed.

Mark War on strike. Strike, he's got 67.
Oh, he's having a go now. That's running away towards the boundary as well.
Yes, another four to Mark War.
Hit that one on the arp. It wasn't a very good ball.
A little bit wide and a little bit short.
And that gave him enough room to fly it through the offside.
220 was the figure we came up with at the halfway mark in this innings for the Australians.
Anything they make above that will be a bonus for them.
John D. Rhodes sets a very high standard for South Africa.
Oh, a ball. He bowls a very good yorker.
Back for the seconds and Cox will get another rollicking here.
Might just be a continuation of the first one.
Kirsten moving across to Bidoff.
Talk to him this morning, he's got a very interesting scar alongside his ear.
Still got the stitches in there.
Had to go in alongside his ear in order to get to his cheekbone.
This is coming down the ground, a bounce just short of the fieldsman there.
They'll end up with one.
Yes, he's got a cut just alongside his ear, just above his ear in fact.
That's on the left side.
That's the 150 partnership.
This has been a tremendous job done by Mark Waugh and Dean Jones.
150 between them, absolutely vital whilst neither of them got out.
That is, well it's more than a chip, it's a blasting chip.
Just goes at everything in the most perfect timing and placement.
Yes, this was a magnificent shot. He didn't quite get the delivery right.
So you can see here, Waugh was able to get underneath it and get it over the top of the infielder there.
And it really went off the bat beautifully into the gap and down the hill towards the member stand.
Didn't need to worry about running for that one.
It's the attempt of the Yorker again.
Once again they're back for the second, so the running is good now.
Once again it's going to be Hansi Cronier.
Down the left side and that will go for four.
Into the fence.
Hansi trying to get the Yorker in there that time.
And just a little bit of bat on it and it went flying away fine.
And they've got the man very squared on that boundary.
One of two strange field placings out there today.
There was no slip in for Richard Snow when he was bowling big leg cutters early on.
Now the man fine leg is way, way up.
It's around about 45 degrees and there's no man close in on the onside.
Just one man.
And there it is again.
Goal in just the wrong spot. Played in just the right fashion.
Hansi Cronier has a little bit of thinking to do either that or he's going to show himself to be a very stubborn man.
We nearly got his partner then.
Well the last 50 came off 39 balls.
And 13 of that over.
Two for 204.
Alan Donald is back in the attack.
Problems now for South Africa.
These two have got away from them.
This is the 45th over.
Two for 204.
Jones has a strike.
Well that's in the air.
This has got to be out.
Hansi Cronier is under it.
He's got it.
Well they've got him at last.
And Jones looks around over his shoulder there.
Maybe in a comment or two.
But the fact of the matter is that he's played a little gem of an innings.
79 of 112 balls.
And most of the crowd here giving him a standing ovation.
Well there he goes.
He tried to whip that one away to Maron.
Down came the ball.
Hansi Cronier said on your way.
So Dean Jones acknowledging the applause.
79 of 112 balls.
So Steve Wars, the new batsman now, joins his brother Mark.
Cronier continued to him.
The boundaries pretty well.
In fact it's Richard Snell coming in now.
So what Steve War does immediately is give the ball back to his brother.
Which is very sensible.
Same direction.
Better hit.
Into the fence it goes.
What good placement that was.
A magnificent shot.
And what's more it brings up his hundred.
Well he's had a bit of an up and down time.
But just lately this may rectify all that.
Very good hand.
Dropped once by Darrell Cullinan.
There's four overs to go now in this innings.
Three for 220.
And have a look at that.
101 of 105 balls.
Fantastic batting.
In the commentary box now Bill Lorry and Ian Chuck.
Donald from the member's end.
It's got him.
Steve Ward trying to hit Donald Square.
Gets the stumps knocked over.
It's an important wicket for South Africa.
It's an important wicket for South Africa to stop the viral runs.
Being a new batsman to the crease.
The intention was clear.
But the ball was just full and too quick.
Donald got the two successes early for South Africa.
That's comprehensively bold.
Steve Ward trying to hit that one.
Square the wicket.
And really just being beaten for pace.
That's four for 221.
Magnificent ovation for Captain Alan Border.
Makes his way to the centre of the Sydney Cricket Ground.
Full house. Beautiful afternoon.
And almost a standing ovation.
De Villiers to come back into the attack.
De Villiers to bowl two from the Randwick end.
Got a hold of this one.
There's a man down there.
He's coming in.
He should catch it.
And the finance remark for 107.
That's an important wicket for South Africa.
Keep them under say 240.
Standing ovation.
Inhaling the new batsman.
Border on strike to De Villiers.
Gets it away.
Square.
There's a man.
He's going to get a single.
Donald picks it up and gets it back quickly.
He's in trouble.
Surely shows why he's home.
Alan Border looking for the short boundary.
He's got it.
Alan Border looking for the short boundary.
It was well defended by Alan Donald.
Made a good throw on the run.
Gone.
Caught behind.
De Villiers picking up another wicket.
Also important in the final.
There's Border trying to smash down the ground.
Got a thick edge straight through to Richardson.
He always bowls.
His natural delivery is with a little bit of off cut.
De Villiers.
And then occasionally he bowls the slower one.
It's also a bit of an off cutter.
Richardson taking a comfortable catch there.
De Villiers has his second wicket.
And Australia are now 6 for 2.41.
Pull rifle.
Right handed all rounder coming to the crease.
De Villiers with 2 for 4 in his final spell.
Get some bat on it.
They look for 2.
It's good running.
It's a pretty good score in the second final for Australia.
With one goal remaining.
Final delivery.
Rifle chips it away.
They'll go for 2 more.
Maybe 3 in here.
They're coming back.
So they're happy with 2.
So 50 overs.
Australia are 6 for 247.
Yeah.

Wonderful performance from the Australians there.
At the halfway mark we reckoned round about $220.
And they've got another $27 on top of that.
I reckon that's about five overs in hand of the South Africans.
This is the card at the end of their innings.
Lovely innings from Mark Waugh.
$207 from 111 balls faced.
Jones, $79 from 112.
The rest, a little bit of hustle and bustle at the end and wickets thrown away.
Nothing you can do about that.
But a good performance, $6 for $247.
And the South African bowling.
Alan Donald, $4 for $40 from 10 overs.
A very good performance from him.
And Fanny de Villiers, $2 for $39.
They both did very well.
But some of the others took a bit of stick.
$248 required.
$4.96 is the asking rate.
This is a very, very stiff task for the South Africans.
To tell you more about that, here's Tony Gregg.
And alongside him is Ian Chuck.
The members' pavilion and the ladies' stand.
On this lovely evening here in Sydney.
For our viewers in South Africa.
Be enjoying this telecast.
And watching the telecast through Mnet.
And of course the New Zealand viewers.
Into the gap again.
May is having to do some chasing today.
He's after that one.
He'll probably just get it before it gets to the fence.
And then he's going to have to look up and it's got a long way to go.
Waters, no it's not.
It's Boone backing him up there.
However, it didn't make any difference.
They've run four.
And coming around the wicket means that it opens up that pull shot for him as well.
Late again and once again Tim May is going to chase it.
He might need a drink shortly.
I think this is Tim May's fitness test.
He's had a bit of an ankle problem.
He's gone to the Australian side for a little while.
It's yours David.
No it's yours Alan.
And it's a long run too.
Will it go?
This could be a nasty.
Peter Kirsten's really struggling.
And are they going to go?
Will this one get to the stump?
No it won't.
Peter Kirsten's really struggling.
And they've run four.
Kirsten's struggling a bit in the commentary box now.
It's going to be Bill Lorry and with him Sir Richard Hadley.
No wicket for 43.
Evan Overs gone.
It's a great shot.
Beautifully played.
Found the gap.
There's two men, three men in that region.
And Gary Kirsten went right between the middle of them.
And that's the shorter boundary that Kirsten has actually played to.
Certainly over pitched outside the off stump.
And Kirsten likes to free his arms.
And ready hit that very square indeed.
Delicately struck.
And that's the first time really that Rifle has just been over pitching a bit.
He's bowled his first five overs for 12 runs.
So he's done a good job.
But Kirsten very much on the ball there.
He moves to 32 and that's his third boundary.
Even though he's had to run a couple of those fours.
He's picked that off beautifully.
He's done it again.
Beautifully played over the infield.
This is intelligent batting by Gary Kirsten.
Dean Jones the fieldsman.
They're through for three more.
Brings up the 50 partnership and the 12th over.
Tremendous stuff by South Africa.
Where's Shane Moore on the crowd I'll be saying.
It won't be too far away I don't think.
It seems we perhaps get the 15 overs up.
Oops he's gone.
If Boon can hit.
He's gone.
It's always on.
Kirsten took a long time to turn.
Peter Kirsten run out for 11.
David Boon with a quick underhand hit.
And that breaks the tremendous partnership.
It's certainly a very important look at two for the Australians.
A lot of hesitancy there between the two Kirstens.
Peter Kirsten looking to take the quick single.
Starts to move down there.
A stop start from Gary Kirsten.
I think there's probably a no answer.
Boon did the right thing.
Kirsten a few metres.
Just to make it a little bit easier to have the direct hit onto the stumps.
Well he did it.
Kirsten's run out.
That's a waste for South Africa.
He's been run out for 11.
South Africa lose their first wicket at 50.
Angie Cronier who's got a big responsibility here tonight.
He scored 40 on Friday night.
I thought he threw his hand away against Shane Moore.
Down the ground.
Hold out.
Stephen Waugh.
There's that slower one and just past Waugh's right hand.
This one's running down towards the screen very fast.
The outfield down here.
That was certainly in the air.
Waugh couldn't quite get his finger back at it.
Try and latch onto it but watch him try here.
Steve Waugh coming round the wicket to the left-hander.
Always the possibility that you might just push one down the league side.
He wants to have all his bases covered.
Well there's the temp of the Yorker.
Will he have a go down this end?
Oh and in the middle of the back.
These Kirstens are taking a bit of a pummeling.
Tim May probably looking to come on and well there's a few more Tim Mays there.
Maybe we're breeding offspin bowlers in Sydney now.
Pretty good.
Just one down there.
Five off the over.
One for 64.
Tim May setting his field, pushing Shane Moore back.
Got him.
He's out.
He's chipped that one up the mid-wicket.
So Boon into the action again and May has struck.
Frustration creeping into the South African batting line-up.
They really have been nailed down by the Australians who are playing good cricket out there.
They bowled very well the last half dozen overs.
Look at the seam on that ball.
Tim May bowling in a bit of an over spinner.
Gary Kirsten just chipping it up to David Boon.
Very handy wicket for the Australians.
Kirsten Luke's for a good 42.
Caught Boon by May.
South Africa are 2 for 74.

John T. Rhodes is the new batsman.
A real little jack in the box he is to have a look at that strike rate.
71.
To tell you more it's going to be Richie Beno against Sir Richard Haddon.
A lot of spin there for Tim May.
These day and night games when the lights come on players seem to think there's a bit of humidity that's out there.
The pitch just becomes not damp but just susceptible to a little more spin than normal.
That's well bowled.
It's 2 for 79.
Shane Warren's coming on in the 24th over.
Now McDermott has three overs still to go.
Steve War has five and Rifle has two.
So there's a bit of leeway there for Alan Borda.
A bit of scope to use his pacemen at the end if he wishes.
He's got a little bit of speed there.
Alan Borda.
A bit of scope to use his pacemen at the end if he wishes.
Once again the man at mid-wicket Alan Borda is called into play.
They'll pick up two from that.
Not totally enamored of the way Shane Warren is grabbing his shoulder out there.
It is a little bit of stiffness.
One can understand with the bowling that he has done that muscles do get strained and stressed from time to time.
No slip.
Therefore you don't deserve a wicket.
Pacemen gets an edge.
Pacemen's going to play you and cut you and just open the face of the bat.
And so far this is an expensive over.
2 for 87.
Straight down the ground.
A good stroke.
Brilliantly hit.
That's the sort of thing the South Africans need.
Hansi Cronier down the track and driving Tim May not allowing the ball to spin.
Cronier certainly does play the spinners very well.
Comes down the crease, usually speaks quite nicely.
Hits it dead straight.
If you're going to hit it straight and firm no one's going to cut that off.
Cronier's certainly picking it up a bit.
McDermott again.
He'll have to be quick.
Oh, he's done well.
The ball was all but past him.
And there was a desperate dive.
That sort of fielding is very inspirational to the rest of your teammates when you see that sort of commitment.
Can't have anything more even than that.
2 for 101.
27 gone.
Another wonderful piece of bowling.
Healy keeps brilliantly to both May and Warren.
It's one of the features of Australia's cricket.
And Warren has broken through.
And that is a crucial moment to get into the middle of the South African batting order.
It was essential for the Australians.
And then Cronier using his feet to come down.
The Wicked Bear's been deceived.
And Healy Healy had a very easy job at the end of the day to have too much time.
But that's a good wicket for the Australians to get.
Cronier outstumped for 28.
South Africa 3 for 102.
Now here is a poignant moment.
Batsman out.
New man in, Darrell Cullinan.
And the bowler at the southern end is Shane Warne.
Pretty good time for South Africa.
1509 balls and tests. Amazing.
1948.
Total balls.
I bowled 66,000 in my career.
But a fair way to go is Shane Warne.
Chaunty Road sweep shot again.
Tremendous tension around this ground.
Not quite on the edge of their seats at the moment.
But they know that the Australians have to win here.
South Africa lead the series 1-0 at the moment.
Certainly has been a wonderful performance by the Australians.
They've been very disappointed at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
In fact, very rarely does an Australian team put in two bad performances on the trot.
So Alan Border and Bobby Simpson and the team have responded.
Very good first innings total.
The out cricket and the field has been good.
And the bowling quite exceptional.
And at times.
Got it in the end.
It was Shane Warne's flipper.
It's done for Darrell Cullinan once again.
But only by a whisker.
It's the fourth time that Shane Warne has dismissed Cullinan.
Tend to drag it down far too short.
And really Cullinan probably did the right thing.
Probably further with six runs.
Miscued it.
Look at that Steve Warne.
A bit of a juggling act there.
But the end result is what counts for the Australians.
Shane Warne will take the wicket.
Cullinan, he's not happy.
He's gone for three.
Disaster for him and the South Africans.
Four for 106.
Brian McMillan is the new batsman coming in to replace Darrell Cullinan.
Shane Warne from the Southern or Randwick end.
Or Randwick boy.
Or the modern Randwick boy Michael Whitney is in the commentary box now.
And with him is Ian Chipp.
Oh the quicker one and he's got Brian McMillan.
Brian McMillan gone for a duck.
And the flipper strikes again.
Yes he looked very pleased about that too Shane Warne.
I think he set Brian McMillan up for that one.
McMillan trying to play the pull shot and as quite rightly described by Richie Benno.
Not that long before he skids on a little bit quicker and absolutely no doubt about that at all.
That is as plumb as you can get it.
A little bit of a war dance from Shane Warne.
South Africa lose another wicket.
McMillan goes for a duck.
And a five for 107.
Here's the big one Adelaide.

Thank you.
David Richardson.
With a higher score of 38.
Not out.
Career strike rate of just over 67.
John T's quick.
I think as much as anything he was
trying to help David Richardson get him off strike.
See Richardson very late in that shot.
Turning the wrist away.
Working the ball down to David Boone.
But he wasn't able to stop the single.
John T Rhodes picking the flipper there.
Tim May looking after his spin twin.
A rare loose ball from Shane Morn.
A full toss.
Attempted flipper.
Tim May making good yards around the edge of the boundary.
He's not the quickest man in the world.
Great throw right over the top of the stumps.
He's picked the gap in the outfield there.
That's good play from John T Rhodes.
5 for 1, 36.
Rhodes on 35.
Richardson 10 in the commentary position now.
Richie Benno and Tony Gregg.
Thanks Ian.
And over.
Well I tell you he might be a little guy.
But when he hits them they stay hit.
That one went way over the top square leg.
It's a shortage boundary.
But Richie Benno earlier was talking about the short on jab.
Have a look at this one.
Very well played.
He picked the flipper.
No trouble at all for John T Rhodes there.
One thing to pick it.
Another one to play it.
One thing to pick it.
It's another one to play it.
He did show you that statistic.
He points out that Warner's bowled almost 2,000 balls
So far this summer.
He didn't want anything at all to happen to your shoulder.
If you are an over the wrist spinner
You're putting enormous strain on
your shoulder and your tendons anyway.
Oh, and that should have been caught.
It just hung up there a little bit.
I think it confused
the rifle a little bit.
5 for 151 against 2 for 183.
The Australians.
This is Alan Border bowling left arm spin.
They just take
a single layer.
Unless they get an overthrow.
It's well taken by Healy.
The two spinners for Australia have done
very well here this evening.
Shane Moore and Tenovers
No Maiden 3 for 42.
And Tim May
had a very good spell early on.
That's 1 for 35.
Oh yes, there's no way
you can get it out from there.
So Border has struck.
He's been angling the ball in.
And Richardson has been trying to cut him
almost every time.
And that one was just too straight to cut.
He may have just chopped it onto the stumps.
One way or the other, the stumps are down.
That's clever bowling.
It's a good topspin.
Left Richardson for dead.
Looking for the spin.
Very good bowling from Alan Border.
16 for Richardson, 6 for 156.
Richard Snell
is the new batsman, just 25 years of age.
You can see he's got a pretty good strike rate there.
So McDermott now.
Taking over from Warn.
And Johnty Rhodes on strike.
He's really going to have a go.
He's hit that one beautifully over the top.
It's bouncing down towards the boundary
at deep extra cover.
It won't quite get there.
They're looking to come back for 4.
Well they, yes, this is good running.
Once again, Johnty Rhodes
has done well.
He's scored a 50.
And he's done it in 56 balls.
Very well played.
39,808 here.
Just on 40,000.
And just on 200,000.
For the last 4 limited overs internationals.
That's absolutely brilliant.
I think to add to that, the huge
television audience,
not only here in Australia,
but in New Zealand,
through TV3 and South Africa,
through Mnet.
Oh yes, that's gone.
Craig McDermott striking.
Johnty Rhodes
compromising in his effort to try
and pull something out of the bag here.
Well he succeeded in scoring a quick fire 50.
But I'm afraid to say
when he came for the crease,
it was almost an impossible task.
It's good endings from Johnty Rhodes.
And he'll be needed again on Tuesday night.
I think we can say
that there will be
a third final here.
It's 7 for 160.
Patrick Leonard Simcox.
With the new batsman.
He's also the South African off spinner.
Now Alan Border.
That's a good shot. Straight down the ground.
Not off the meat of the bat.
No problems with that one.
Keep hitting him as straight as that.
Not off the meat of the bat.
And he'll be very happy.
Off fielded.
He really did go a long way.
Got tucked up there with the batsman
down the non-strikers end as well.
It's a great commitment there.
He's gone behind the batsman.
And still got it back to Ian Healy.
Nicely hit again.
That's a good bat he's got.
Right off the meat of it again.
Hitting straight and hard.
12 runs off that over.
7 for 173.
And he's jumped over that one.
Smashed back at the fastball.
This will be a run out. Yes he's gone.
This is the sort of thing that happens at the end of a one day game
when the batsmen are desperate.
Running out of overs.
I think Pat's had a very good day.
Bit of a struggle out in field there.
And now
he's got another one off the meat of the bat.
The batsman Richard Snell.
And then Simcox
has come on
and he's miles out.
It's one of those things that can happen
in either test or limited overs
fixtures. 12 from 6 balls.
8 for 174.
Fennacher Fahny de Villiers is the new batsman.
He's faced 9 balls in this competition so far
and scored one run.
It's well hit.
It's now a very good hitter
in the lower order.
Got him.
Over goes the house. The middle stump.
MacDermot
very well in his second spell.
Australia coasting towards
a big victory here at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
So it's going to be one all after two.
Yes it needed a miracle for South Africa
and Richard Snell was basically
trying to attempt to hit every ball for four.
And that's always
going to be a risky business
as it proved
to be.
MacDermot right on line. Middle stump.
There's Carte Wheeling
and the ninth wicket is down for 178.
Frank MacDermot to Alan Donald.
What a catch. A ripper and that's the end.
Another wicket for MacDermot. A beautiful return
What a catch. Just the one hand.
And this big crowd of almost 40,000
give the Australians a tremendous shout.
Well played.
Coming back to one all after two.
69 runs the margin.
178 all out in.
45.5 overs.
And the series is squared. South Africa won the first match.
The Australians now have won the second.
And a very good performance it was too.
Johnty Rhodes made 52.
And Gary Kirsten who's having a terrific summer
after coming out as a replacement player.
From 51 balls.
The rest couldn't come to terms with the bowling.
MacDermot bowled very well.
And so do the two spinners Tim May and Shane Warne.
MacDermot 3 for 39 in 8.5.
Tim May 1 for 35.
And Shane Warne 3 for 42.
So 69 runs the margin in front of a crowd
of just on 40,000.
Magnificent crowd.
And it'll be packed out again on Tuesday
when the last of the finals
the third final
in this best of three is played here at the SCG.
Tuesday the 25th of January
a day night match.
And tickets on sale on Monday
at 9am.
Ticketek 02 266 4800.
Great game.
Very good performance from the Australians.
