Thanks for joining, that is all from this encounter between South Australia and Queensland. This was Badal Pareek, AkshayaKrishna Polya and was ably supported by Anmol Ahuja. See you all. Until next time..Cheers!
A clinical all-round performance by Queensland helps them win the match by 6 wickets with 47 balls remaining. It all started in the first innings itself when Sandhu picked up a hattrick and put breaks on the South Australian innings. SA were on course for something around 320 because of the start given by Carey (101 runs) and Hunt (61 runs). Sandhu and company had other plans as they restricted them to 274. In the second innings, the Queensland top order failed but then came in Renshaw(156 not out) who took apart the South Australian bowling lineup. He was well supported by Bryant (68 runs). Once Renshaw completed his ton, he just went after everything. As a result, they won it comfortably with 6 wickets and 7.5 overs left.

0 A full ball down the leg. Renshaw shuffled across and tried to flick to get the winning runs but misses. Also not given as wide. Fair call.
41.5 W Agar to M Renshaw
6 Short and pulled away for a maximum by Renshaw, he wants it done and dusted as quickly as possible.
2 Full ball on leg stump, flicked to deep mid wicket and they get two runs. 150 for Renshaw. Superb innings from him.
41.3 W Agar to M Renshaw
4 Full length outside off stump, Renshaw picks it up and deposits it over the man at mid-off for four runs.
41.2 W Agar to M Renshaw
6 Four!! Full toss on leg stump asking for a boundary tour. Renshaw smashes it over deep square leg boundary for a six. The fielder there tried to get nearer to that by jumping but cannot get any hand to it. Good effort.

1 Short of a length outside off, guided down to the third man fielder for a single.
