4th Test: Australia v West Indies at Melbourne, 26-30 Dec 2000

Ball-by-Ball Commentary

       Welcome to the 4th Test between Australia and the West Indies from
        one of the world's largest cricket stadiums
       The West Indies have won the toss, Adams sending Australia into bat
       One change for each side
       Pace bowler Andy Bichel comes in for Stuart MacGill
       Whilst the West Indies have dropped Marlon Black, putting Colin
        Stuart in his place to make his test debut
       Correction, the Australians have made two changes, Australian
        captain Steve Waugh coming back into the side in Damien Martyn's
        place after missing the test in Adelaide through injury
       Umpires Taufel and Venkat have made their way out to the centre
       Simon Taufel making his Test umpiring debut
       And now the West Indies fielders follow
       Followed by the Australian batsmen
       The players making their way out with some terrible music blurring
        away in the background
       Courtney Walsh to bowl the first over of the innings, as he has
        done all tour

Match State: Day 3 to start at 11.00pm (0000 GMT)

       Welcome to Melbourne where there's been a bit of rain this morning,
        and we've seen the covers going on and off the pitc
       The covers are currently off and it looks like we'll be starting on
        time
       Australia will commence their second dig this morning, after the
        West Indies avoided the follow-on by one measly run
       It is doubtful that the day's play will be even close to
        interesting
       We expect nothing more than a run-fest by the Aussie batsmen,
        looking to set their opposition and impossible target for the
        fourth innings, as they have done so often in the recent past

       Welcome to the MCG for the fourth day's play, there has been light
        rain about the place this morning
       But the weather looks OK now, the pitch is currently uncovered
       So an on time starts looks likely
       The rain has come back and the hessian cover is being placed on the
        pitch
       The rain is getting worse, and the start will almost surely be
        delayed
       And in the blink of an eye the rain has mostly cleared, the pitch
        once again uncovered
