although since lunch, Amby has looked more comfortable
remarkably Adams has faced 170 balls without facing a boundary
a testament to the accuracy of the bowling
96.1 Olonga to Ambrose, one run, off the edge to 3rd man- Amby gets the
single for Adams
96.2 Olonga to Adams, one run, Adams doesn't want the strike- down to
long leg, lots of confidence in his partner

well in

the top league
Crowd milling all around their heros
I would not want to have a sore back like poor Walsh who is being
'actively' slapped by his adorers
bikes out there, bet the groundsman is not happy
a great moment for Jimmy Adams who seems to have done a great job
after the politics surrounding Lara
still no official ceremonies here, crowd scenes, adulation etc,
flag waving, patting going on
Ceremonies on, more congrats for Walsh, incredible scenes, Holding
is Master of ceremonies and asks for a round of applause for both
teams
intro of the VIP's and tournet sponsors
MoS to get the car, a Rover
A Flower says he is disappointed could not sustain their good
cricket, enjoyed the cricket and crowds congrats Walsh, will
concentrate now on One Day cricket, will take some time off to
regroup
Says he is disappointed on Streak, who has a tendon problem and may
not take part in the ODI' s new chaps arriving today
MOM was a difficult decision mentions Goodwin, Reon King, and then
Adams the Captain who pulled WI to the top so the MOM goes to
Adams to a huge cheer!
Adams comes on for the Dollar Cheque
Adams says was a good team perf and to the bowlers, happy with his
100 and mentions all of his batters
Winners cheque and series win cheque goes to WI via Adams
more words with Adams and thanks the crowd, a real good speaker and
diplomat to wit
Adams does not know if many changes in the OD team
Rover car for the MoS was not an easy decision, congrats Flower for
the fighting knock in the first test
the car and MoS award goes to Franklin ROSE
Rose has a shaved head and says he is happy and loves the support
from everybody
thats all folk from the CricInfo coverage of the WI and Zim series,
