         c. Clarke      b. Malinga

48.6  Malinga to Herath, no run, Left alone by Rangana Herath
      The end to a good spell from Lasith Malinga. He was pretty effective with three wickets under his name

49.1  Watson to Cummins, two runs,
49.2  Watson to Cummins, no run, Huge appeal for LBW but turned down
49.3  Watson to Cummins, one run, One more to the total
49.4  Watson to Herath, no run, Huge appeal for LBW but turned down
49.5  Watson to Herath, no run, Appeal for LBW, a bit too optimistic though
49.6  Watson to Herath, FOUR, Who needs Bradman when weve got Rangana Herath

Lasith Malinga was back on track with his pinpoint yorkers. So were Sydney.

That's a very disappointing loss, but there was nothing we could really do - sometimes MS Dhoni just gets going and there's no way to stop him
 
Well, 5 rounds have already been played, which is the minimum for a single round-robin featuring 6 teams. That means I could simply cut the next five rounds and jump to the season finale with the two top teams - Hobart Tigers and Queensland Firebirds.

I'm sorry, but I clearly lack the motivation to see this through right up to Round 10 after the recent unexpected turnaround of my life. Besides, continuing up to 10 rounds at a slow pace due to my various other commitments would only end up boring the managers more than they already were before, when I gave priority to the 2015 World Cup. Better to just play out the final and call it a day.

I'll admit starting this ELA season just after the previous one ended with almost no foresight has been probably the worst decision I've made during my time at the leagues section.

And so, the Hobart Tigers had won the ELA in their very first attempt - something which only the legendary West Coast Fever squad of Season 1 managed before. They were obviously helped by the curtailing of the season due to various unavoidable circumstances, but it was a great effort nonetheless.

Joe Burns easily grabbed the Man of the Match award with his brilliant match-winning century.

Meanwhile, David Warner's swashbuckling batting earned him Player of the Tournament as he watched the final from the sidelines.

Australian legend Brett Lee of the Sydney Roosters announced his retirement from the ELA and all professional cricket following the end of the final. He finished as the third highest wicket-taker in ELA history behind only Dale Steyn and Mitchell Johnson - with 46 wickets from 29 matches at an average of 27.15.
He was given a guard of honour from all players present as he entered and exited the cricket field one last time at the end of a match in which he did not play.

The players also observed a minute's silence in memory of the late Phillip Hughes who passed away shortly after the season began. He scored 54 in his only match for the Queensland Firebirds before that tragic injury occurred.
