- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.5 slower ball, tries to drive but lofted straight to mid-on where Khalfia shows a "Saif" pair of hands to hold on to the catch 30/17.1 gone! Fuller ball, misses trying the play in to the leg-side and the ball removes his off-stump. Big wicket for Tanzania 30/223.2 clipped in the leg-side, finds the gap between deep square and midwicket fielders, they push for the second as Petricola stuttered, but Nassoro's throw was hard and flat, right in to the keepers gloves, and Kikasi takes the stumps at the other end, as Northcote dives in vain 86/345.2 fine paddle round the corner, they sprint back for a second but a sensational pick up and flat throw for a direct hit from 25 yards from Kiseto sends him packing, Petricola dived but he was miles out 206/538.4 goes for a big swipe, and can only get a thin edge that carries through to the keeper, all the Tanzanian players appeal but Crowley walks 167/446.2 straighter from Nassoro, Jayasena trying to hit out and rightly so, but he misses with a wild swing and gets bowled round his legs 209/6Extras16 (lb 3, w 13)TOTAL259/7 (50 Overs, RR: 5.18)Fall of wickets: 1-30 (Alessandro Bonora, 6.5 ov), 2-30 (Andy Northcote, 7.1 ov), 3-86 (Nic Northcote, 23.2 ov), 4-167 (Damian Crowley, 38.4 ov), 5-206 (Peter Petricola, 45.2 ov), 6-209 (Hemantha Jayasena, 46.2 ov), 7-247 (Damian Fernando, 49.2 ov)
