Welcome to this ING Cup match between New South Wales and Victoria
Plenty of rain yesterday and overnight, means conditions are a bit
slippery, but the outfield looks in good condition, bit of light
rain now at 9.30am, the pitch is covered with one plastic sheet
The brief rain has cleared, and now at 9.34am, the plastic and
hessian covers are being removed
9.44am - The pitch has been re-covered, no toss as yet, it doesn't
look as if we'll have an on-time start
New South Wales have won the toss and elected to bowl first

And that ends a rather ordinary performance by the Victorians
There was a bit of life in the pitch, and the bowling was good, but
they really needed to give a better account of themselves than all
out for 175
Good contributions early in the innings by Arnberger and Hodge, and
Rummans did his best to steady the sinking ship late in the
innings, but no one was able to make a big score
And for a team that is supposed to bat all the way down to number
nine, it was a rather poor effort
Hard to fault any of the New South Wales' bowlers, they did a very
good job, keeping things tight early on, which built the pressure
that saw a bundle of wickets fall mid-way through the innings
Nice sunshine out in the middle now, it looks like we may be able
to fit in a full day of uninterupted cricket despite things
looking quite bleak earlier

One run to go, if New South Wales get that this over they secure a
bonus
39.1 Inness to Clarke, one run, big swipe away to the on side, and there
it is, victory with a bonus
And a well deserved 5-point win as well
New South Wales thoroughly outclassing their Victorian counterparts
An excellent performance with the ball by the home side setting up
a target they had little difficulty in chasing
Victoria's performance with the ball wasn't bad, but it was always
going difficult defending such a meagre target, the performance of
their batsmen left a lot to be desired
A significant win in the overall context of the competition, it
catapults New South Wales to the top of the ING Cup table
