New South Wales got 9/256 off their 50 overs
Slater - 35
Shane Lee - 83
Ian Harvey - 3/38
In reply, Victoria made 133 off 35.3 overs
Warne - 25
Moss - 25
Nash - 3/31
Clark - 2/30
MacGill - 2/32
New South Wales won by 123 runs
On the BaggyGreen website they had:
Catch a Six Trump Players: ME Waugh (NSW) and JL Arnberger (Vic)
Does anyone know what this means?
A great result. As I hate the vics, watching them play the way they did, made me smile. I am looking forward to when Victoria come up against my boys from QLD. Should be good.

Don't know what 'Catch a six trump player' is, but the press would have had a day out if Shane Warne's second six in the over of Mark Waugh* had hit the million dollar sign instead of going over by a couple of feet.
*I got it of an unreliable source that the sixes were off Mark Waugh, I have just read that they were off McGill.

it means that if one of the trump players hit a six and someone in the crowd catches it. That means the person who caught it gets 1000 dollars

NSW are gonna be damn hard to beat whilst they've got their test players in the side.
Us Vics are horrid at the one-day game anyway.
Cheers

You'd be waiting a while to get Arnberger to hit you a six to catch.
Just wondering Vic fans... I have only seen Klinger 4 or 5 times, but he looks to be an ordinary player....did he make any decent scores last year?
Great win for the Blues....hopefully S. Lee will be back in the Oz 1-day team soon.

i know
Looks like the typical slow start to the season for the Vics. Suprise, suprise :rolleyes:
The theory seems to be, that because of the cold Victorian winter, the Vics have trouble getting into gear at the beginning of the domestic season in October. Many times over the last few seasons, the Vics have had to train indoors in the lead up to the season, because it was to wet to practice!
Anyway, that's the excuse.
The bottom of the ladder for the vics has a nice ring to it, wouldn't you agree?

Don't get to cocky. Its only one game.
But that was a pathetic start to the year. Mind you I would prefer to do well in the Pura Cup than the ING Comp.
