Match State: Stumps - Day 1
Welcome to the second day's play of this Pura Cup match between New
South Wales and Western Australia from Newcastle's Number One
Sports Ground
New South Wales' only home match in this competition away from
their traditional home of the Sydney Cricket Ground
A nice and sunny day here in Newcastle, lovely blue sky, barely a
cloud in the sky
New South Wales will resume this morning in a healthy position at
seven wickets for 322 runs
But with those seven wickets being those of the seven recognised
batsmen, the visitors have a good chance of wrapping this innings
up quickly against a weak tail
The fact that Stuart Clark, often the non-batsman in the one-day
matches, is the number eight batsman tends to suggest that this is
far from the strongest of lower orders

Match State: Stumps - Day 2
Welcome to the third day's play of this Pura Cup match that sees
New South Wales hosting Western Australia at a bright and sunny
Newcastle
Western Australia now on top of this match thanks to some wonderful
batting between Mike Hussey and Shaun Marsh
Shaun Marsh the more dashing of the two, providing the highlight of
yesterday's plays with two successive sixes, both pulls over the
mid wicket fence, off Mark Waugh, to bring up his maiden first-
class century
And yet it was Marsh's off side play that showed his class,
particularly with his exquisite cover driving, this 19 year old
looks a real player of the future
Mike Hussey also demonstrating his reknown class, playing shots all
around the wicket, his preparedness to use his feet and get down
the track to MacGill was a real feature, he is now just ten runs
short of his century

This match is going right down to the wire, both sides teetering on
the brink of victory, and there's only two overs remaining in this
match
70.1 Katich to Clark, no run, careful defence from the crease back to
the bowler
70.2 Katich to Clark, no run, back to a short one, awful forcing shot,
gets a leading edge, rolls to Bollinger at backward point
70.3 Katich to Clark, two runs, big swing away through the on side, in
the air landing safely at mid wicket
70.4 Katich to Clark, one run, forward defensively, runs it off an edge
to short third man
70.5 Katich to Casson, one run, pitched up, miscues the slog but gets
enough on it to have it roll through mid wicket
70.6 Katich to Clark, no run, goes for a big slog over square leg,
misses and is taken on the pad, there's no appeal for lbw
End of over 71 (4 runs) Western Australia 296/9 (RR: 4.17 RRR: 3/1 = 3.00)
SM Katich 14-3-45-5 - National Park End

We enter the last over now and things are looking very tense, all
four results possible
71.1 MacGill to Casson, no run, leans forward with a big swinging slog
drive, misses down the off side, Haddin collects for the stumping,
but Casson's back foot is planted
71.2 MacGill to Casson, OUT: steps forward with a big slog drive
straight down the ground, a good catch taken by the fielder
running back from long off
Western Australia 296/10, Partnership of 4

the last six wickets for 24 runs, with the match ending in the
last scheduled over of the day
And second innings five wicket hauls for the two former Western
Australians, wrist spinners Simon Katich and Stuart MacGill,
winning the match for the home side
