Hopefully the team can start off with a win and hopefully I'm in the next match. I'll follow the story anyway though.

Australia A vs Heroes XI, Day 2 - Stumps!
A even steven sort of few sessions Heroes started well with Kev leading from the front and being in the middle of the action, first got a run out then go the wicket of Thornely for a duck, then to top his spell of he also got Birt with some simple line and lenght, then had to take himself of because Jaques went mad and unleashed on Plym and Kev but they bowled well to get the Heros in this position.
Jaques played a beauty of an Innings there wasnt a time he look to get out (well Kev got a appeal for LBW but leg was just outside the line) until a mental decsion for a run got him run out, Malik threw from way out and it was a direct hit which sent him packing.
Simbazz was seen for the first time in the match and we have to say he is decent, he was having battles with Cosgrove who was looking to slog him reverse sweep him and all sorts Sim appealed loads of times for LBW but was not given, he even appealed for a reverse sweep but his leg was way outside off but then got him with the Flipper C&B excellent set up for Sim to get his first of the fat bum Cosgrove.
The score at stumps isnt a bad one but they cant let them stretch the lead, they definatly need the wicket of Haddin or Hodge to get into the fragile tailend and then they will have enough time to wrap up the runs and the first win of the season...

Australia A vs Heros XI, Day 3 - Heros Run Chase Begins!
What a thriller Australia have batter well but is it good enough the target is set and some big Innings were scored as well as some amazing wickets taken Brad Hodge scored a 121* but early on was proven to have been out when a ball from Sim hit his glove and went to first slip who caught it with no mistake the appeal came the ump said not out.
So he had a life line and used it well to get his team to where they are. Sim couldnt get Barad Hodge but got Brad Haddin with an amazing ball Hadding tried to reverse sweep but was beaten by pace and some spin to send off for a spin some great bowling by the spinners.
Heros cant go wrong they have the better part of 2 days and a small target so they should win this or will they collapse?
Left Hander has a crucial role to play he can anchor the Innings and keep the team stable we'll see if he has improved and if the Heros cant notch up a win?

Australia A vs Heros XI, Day 3 - Headless Chicken Out!
Well it has not been pretty by any means for Mehkar in his first match he showed some fight in the 1st Innings but suffered some pains to the head after being hit there 3 times, he also suffered a shot to the ribs in the 2nd Innings where he fell early to Dizzy who stuck early again giving Australia A hope of winning. He was dissmissed for only 2 but showed some promise an update on his condition will be told later.
Score: Heros XI - 19-1

So so hard to decide which way this match is heading one or two wickets for Australia A tommorow and the game could be theres 5 wickets have fell pretty much like the last Innings bit of a collapse.
Mehkar as we know went, Left Hander looked promising but they were getting into his ear saying 'Shouldnt you be playing for us?' and that put him under pressure and he was bowled by an around the wicket delievery that beat the edge of that bat, he showed fight though.
Then a few more collapsed Malik once again getting out befor the 50 mark, Fox the hero of last Innings failed today but one man that shon was RoboRocks he was the hero this time around and is still unbeaten on 78* with Drewska on 7*.
Can these two last batsman hold it out until the chase those 63 runs, we'll find out soon...
