Welcome to this ING Cup fixture between New South Wales and South
Australia from the picturesque Drummoyne Oval in Sydney's inner
west
Both these teams are out of finals contention, so you might say
both teams are playing for pride, both have had disappointing
campaigns in both competitions this season

encounters where high scoring is greatly encouraged
New South Wales have won the toss and elected to bat first
There's been a late change to the South Australian line up, Shane
Deitz is out with tonsilitis, Ben Cameron comes in to make his
one-day debut

small
But given the fragility the South Australian batting line-up has
shown all summer, the home side would be warm favourites at this
stage to take the honours in this match

And that's it, NSW win by 8 runs
But really a more appropriate scoreline would be South Australia
lost by 8 runs, as the Redbacks have found a way to snatch defeat
from the jaws of victory once again
Lehmann really shouldn't have holed out in the deep to the
innocuous MacGill at a stage when South Australia looked well
ahead
One must also wonder why the injured Blewett didn't come in ahead
of SA's bunny rabbit in Paul Rofe, if Cleary have have been given
strike with four balls to go rather than just two balls to go, it
could well have been a different outcome
So another four points for NSW, they pretty much cement a final
finishing place of 4th in this competition, whilst South Australia
get 5th position
