       this equals Englands ODI 1st wicket p/ship v WI
  35.1 Powell to Trescothick, no run, Poweel gets some turn
  35.2 Powell to Trescothick, SIX, Trescothick notices 6 are needed to
        win, so he smacks it over midwicket for just that amount
       apologies I suspect Trescothick can count even if I cannot, but of
        course he couldn't score a five
       the points table is as follows now
       Match 6/9           P  W  L NR T Pts Net-RR    For        Aga
       Zimbabwe              4  3  1  - -   6 -0.131  813/193.1  740/170.3
       England               4  2  1  1 -   5 +1.331  493/105.5  493/148.2
       West Indies           4  -  3  1 -   1 -1.157  587/150    660/130.2
       It is mathematically possible for WI to join Zim in the final, but
        they need to win their remaining games by very large margins
       Presentations coming up
       Chairman of Durham and a Nat West Director are there to give out
        the medals and cash
       Adams says "we were 50 or 60 short of a competitive total"
       hard to pick them up before tomorrow
       Stewart collects the winning cheque
       Stewart says bowling is exceptional, but they bowled 11 no-balls so
        some room to improve (said with a huge smile)
       Trescothick is MoM
       Agrees it is a brilliant start to an international career
       And with that I will leave you, please join us again tomorrow, or
