Healy played the last game as well. Irrespective whether Gilchrist rests/plays his comeback match will be with reduced by 15% ratings. As in real life too when a player comes back from injury he is a little tentative/uncomfortable while playing. I hope it's cleared with you guys. :)

Sri Lanka got off to a disaster of a start being 17/2 at one stage losing Atapattu & Jayawardene on consecutive deliveries to Abdul Razzaq. Infact they lost half their side with just 63 runs on the board! Kaluwitharana scored a patient 56 but Rawalpindi express proved to be too good for him as Sri Lanka were 117/7!! The Sri Lankan tail batted responsibly and took them to 183 all out which at one stage looked a lot lesser. Shoaib Akhtar ended up as the pick of the bowlers picking 4/31 from his 10 overs.

Well that's an obliteration of the Sri Lankan attack more specifically from Saeed Anwar and Shahid Afridi! Afridi scored an aggressive 40 at the start and this was taken forward by Anwar who scored an unbeaten 93 off just 61 deliveries. Surprising to see that Muttiah Muralitharan bowled just 1 over in the defence of 184 while pacers who went for plenty kept bowling to Pakistan. Massive boost to Pakistan's run-rate after that 23.4 over chase!!

Code:
That will be the match
A comprehensive victory for Pakistan, losing just 2 wickets
183 was never a large enough total to defend
Thats all the cricket from Sharjah

SRI LANKA            183       47.1 overs
PAKISTAN             189/2     23.4 overs
  
Pakistan won by 8 wickets 
Man of the match: Saeed Anwar

So Damien Martyn instead of Adam gilchrist :) @Mijurkat @NILAYSHAH60
See it's not a problem to rest him but if you might need him at a later stage he would still be played with the reduced rating since he did not play for a while and would be completely out of sync. So playing him now would mean he would be more likely to perform better in later matches.

Guys if you have questions regarding the injuries please clear it out.

Inspite of losing wickets, the Australians batted aggressively as Mark Waugh laid the foundation for a big score with a stable 57. However, Daniel Vettori had other ideas as he picked up 4 wickets with Australia bundled out for just 226 in 46.5 overs. This looks to be the best chance for New Zealand to turn things around in this Sharjah Cup by chasing the score down. However, Australia have a strong bowling attack capable of defending this score.

A six that came a little too late from Chris Harris as Australia have pulled of this nail-biter with the help of a good death bowling. The match proved to be a lot closer than expected as New Zealand at one stage were 98/5. The lower order showed a lot of fighting spirit as they contributed about 119 runs losing just 2 wickets. For Australia, it was Tom Moody who got 3/30 in his 10 overs which was also his comeback game in this Sharjah Cup. Damien Fleming who played his first game also got 2/36. McGrath went wicketless but bowled an economical spell conceding at just about 3.8 runs per over. Shane Warne proved to be a little too expensive.
Code:
That will be the match
What a thriller between two evenly balanced teams!

But, in the end Australia's bowling led them to victory
We hope you will be joining us in the coming matches

AUSTRALIA            226       46.5 overs
NEW ZEALAND          217/7     50.0 overs

Australia won by 9 runs
Man of the match: Tom Moody

Take a bow, Tom. Excellent display of proactive bowling by our bowlers. Batting is looking helpless without Gilly. Now, we can enjoy.
