This however gave Lawrence Rowe and Franklyn Stephenson a great opportunity to prove their credentials, and they grabbed it with both hands.

Dr WG Grace returned to form this time as the legends posted 311 in their first innings. Not surprisingly, it was nowhere near enough against a team featuring some of the best players of spin to walk the earth.

They managed to find Tendulkar's Achilles heel in the left-arm spin of Peel, but were completely powerless against Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman and Sourav Ganguly. All three notched up centuries to bolster India to a humongous 530.

India then bowled the Legends out for a paltry 209 with the wicket turning as fiercely as ever. Kumble and Harbhajan took out their middle order while Tendulkar joined in on the act to get Grace, Barnes and Briggs. They won by an innings and earned a bagful of points.

Aah, that's a shame! Was really looking forward to the match but, both the teams seemed uninterested maybe...

With defeat looking almost certain after a poor first innings, South Africa did what they do better than most.

Jacques+Kallis+Australia+v+South+Africa+First+2NNKmzJ4Aftl.jpg


The match saving specialists Jacques Kallis, Hashim Amla and Faf du Plessis grinded out more than 100 overs between themselves while the typically aggressive Herschelle Gibbs also chipped in with a comparatively useful 110 off 191 balls.

Arthur Morris, who looked a complete shadow of himself during the previous 3 matches, returned to his scintillating best with an innings of 155. He comprehensively outscored all of his team-mates, and then chipped in with another half-century in the second innings.

While Don Bradman has been known to score a few ducks during his Test career, he never once managed a pair. That is until today. This was shocking given that he looked unstoppable with a 277 just one match earlier. Probably just a super-rare bad day at the office for him.

@Mr Nokkaya, so what's it gonna be?[DOUBLEPOST=1413483958][/DOUBLEPOST]


If you rest his leg for one round, he comes back with fresh energy the next time you play him. That's quite helpful for an in-form bowler.

Patrick Patterson, Otis Gibson, Vasbert Drakes, Nixon McLean, Cameron Cuffy in for
Courtney Browne, Frank Rose, Stuart Williams and both Benjamins

Ideally, you have should brought Patto and Gibson in for Browne and Rose. The Benjamins were good bowlers. Also, you will want to keep enough batsmen in your team. I think Wavell Hinds would be available for you and you should replace him with one of the Benjamins. Hinds was scoring quite a few runs back in 1997-98. Now, that you have good 5-6 bowlers, I hope you will be able to use them to good effect. My advice is to start with a four men pace attack of Ambrose, Walsh, Bishop and Patto.

I think Wavell Hinds would be available for you and you should replace him with one of the Benjamins. Hinds was scoring quite a few runs back in 1997-98.


He still had no international experience whatsoever at the time. Blooding a rookie in a legends league might not be the best idea. The later turned US legend Clayton Lambert sounds like a safer bet to me.

It's never easy to chase a total in excess of 250 at the MCG, and the West Indians should have known better than to send Australia in after winning the toss. The indifferent form of some of their batsmen and failure to convert starts proved to be a chink in their armor thick with fearsome fast bowlers.

Ricky Ponting dug deep in the second innings while the Australians came under fire from Ambrose, Walsh, Bishop and surprise package of Hooper to score a crucial 67.

Glenn McGrath then did what he does best and picked up a 5-fer to bowl Australia to victory.

It does not matter what kind of pitch or ground (MCG is heck of a size), you know the team bowled exceedingly well when you have bundled out under 300 twice in the same match and that too in their own backyard.
