       At lunch at day 1, ACT after being sent in by Western Australia
       are 88 for 1 wicket with Smith unbeaten on 51 and McQuire 256 not
        out.
       Smith punished Williams in the early part, Williams leaving the
        field
       for some time after his spell conceding 23 runs from 5 overs,
        unrewarded.
       Thistle looks very good, attacking the stumps and conceding few
        runs.
       Nicholson started well, with a minor three or four balls of the
        wayward stuff.
       Sean Cary took Browns wicket but lacked penetration on other
        occasions.
       Ryan Campbell's side is getting thru the overs quickly and he is
        setting
       attacking fields, supporting his bowlers well.
  33.1 Cary to Smith, no run
  33.2 Cary to Smith, no run
  33.3 Cary to Smith, no run
  33.4 Cary to Smith, no run
  33.5 Cary to Smith, no run, off cutter - appeals for a catch behind but
        the umpire is not fooled
  33.6 Cary to Smith, no run, defends back to the bowler

Match State: Tea - Day 1

       At tea on day 1, ACT after being 88-1 at Lunch - WA struck
       in the 5th and 6th overs thru Cary and Williams. Nicholson
       returned with immediate results - deceptively fast and accurate
       he had Tucker driving just wide of Sean Marsh who took a good
       diving catch. Dawn and Robson didnt hang about and the current
       pair Heaney unbeaten on 31 and Holcombe 2 have taken the score
       to 165 for 6.

Match State: Lunch - Day 2

       * Cullen 50 in 82 minutes from 64 balls with 9 fours
       Western Australia rolled ACT late yesterday for 230 which is
        actually
       a very good score. Sean Cary was the best for WA with 5 wickets for
       53 despite some rather innocuous bowling at times
       Smiths 56 was the best for ACT.
       5 catches for WA skipper Ryan Campbell does him some credit.
       In the first hour WA lost its first wicket - Rogers; during a spell
        of
       5 maiden overs by Kellar
       The rest of the ACT bowling was not as ecconomical, and less
        accurate too.
       Geoff Cullen reached 50 at the end of the next over and immediately
       preceding the lunch break. Dighton whilst not playing a flashy
        innings
       has accumulated his 40 runs in an effective and safe manner.
       Reynolds seems a good find for ACT - tight bowling, ecconomical but
        as
       yet un rewarded.

       Western Australia passed the ACT total in the 2nd hour of the
        middle session on day 2.
       Dighton and Marsh came together when Cullen pulled at a short ball
        from Reynolds top edging a soft one for Smith at square leg.
       Dighton made his century off the last ball in this session. Just
        previous to that Marsh reached 50.
       Reynolds continues to be most attacking. Kellar is bowling well.
        The other good bowler James was not used.

       And with less than two overs remaining in the day - stumps are
        drawn.
       A very good day for Western Australia and not so good for ACT. A
        dour century by Dighton and a sparkling century by Campbell we're
        the main highlights.
       Fifties to Cullen and Marsh also high points.
       For ACT Kellar was very impressive. A post tea spell of 12 overs
        netted him 4 wickets with 3 maidens and the concession of just 28
        runs.
       Reynolds was also bright, nabbing the wicket of the dangerous
        Cullen (his only reward.)
       If you are able to come down to the WACA, it is free entry. You
        should be treated to a wicket fest as the West Australians wrap up
        the match inside 3 days. Or maybe some gritty batting as ACT digs
        in to save a match.
       At Stumps - Western Australia have a lead of 185 runs with 2 days
        remaining and are looking like having a firm grasp of this game.
       Until tomorrow - good night from the WACA ground, Perth.
       Good morning and welcome to the WACA for day 3 of this ACB Cup

        Territory.

Match State: Lunch - Day 3

       ACT got off to a disasterous start and one wonders whether they
        will last the day let alone save the match.
       Cary was rewarded with the wickets veteran McQuire and Heaney,
        Nicholson made the early break with Smiths wicket and country boy
        Ellis has the run scorer Brown's wicket shortly before lunch.
        Thistle also chimed in for one scalp.
       Brown was doing a mighty job with 11 fours in his score of 63 - his
        was a blazing effort. Alas he was not well supported untill Tucker
        arrived at the crease.

       E Kellar 0* (0b) BJ Oldroyd 7.5-2-33-3

       ACT threatened to make WA bat again but some loose hitting put an
        end to that ambition.
       Oldroyd unexpectedly came up with the best bowling figures for WA -
        the wicket of Tucker being very valuable.
       Tucker threw it away after a fantastic innings of 70 from 82 balls
        - but he was (like Brown earlier in the day) without support.
       Millers innings was entertaining - backing away from the fast
        bowlers - more foot work from one player than the rest of the team
        put together.
       That was the final game for WA in this series they remain top of
        the table. ACT pointless and at the bottom of the table play next
        Monday 12th to Thrusday 15th in and against Victoria.
