SA 1/12 off 3 overs

Harris run out 1

Over 1.2: Harwood to Blizzard, no run, OUT, full toss is smacked to mid off, Harris is slow to run after getting back in his crease at the bowlers end, Hussey aims at the strikers end and hits the stumps to leave Harris just short!
Amazing work from Hussey, throwing from the circle to hit the stumps at the other end for a crucial early breakthrough.

Questions need to be asked about the wisdom of playing these games at sub standard venues such as Skilled stadium. Sure, they've apparently had crap weather leading up to the match but there shouldn't be an excuse for a pitch providing extreme variable bounce.
Hodge retired hurt to a ball that reared off a good length and then Ferguson gets LBW to ball ball thats shoots through low off the same length.

Dan Christian 5-42 (10)

Take notice Hilditch...
