0.4 to HH Gibbs, there it is! Pitches it up and it just holds up a tad off the bat and he scoops it straight back to Faulkner. 4/1
2.1 to SM Katich, oh what a gem, the leg cutter just nips away a touch and gets a thick edge to second slip. 7/3
41761.75200020
1.5 to MJ North, big inswinger goes straight through, off stump goes flying!. 7/2
3.3 to MP Stoinis, back of a length on off, tries to work through the leg side and gets a big leading edge straight to gully for the easiest of catches. 16/4
9.4 to HWR Cartwright, the slower ball does it, just took a tiny bit off it and that had him through the shot too soon, scooping it to mid wicket for an easy catch. 55/6
9.6 to NM Coulter-Nile, as plumb as plumb can be! Another brilliant slower ball, this time a yorker, completely deceives him and catches him in front of middle. 55/7
11.2 to TIF Triffitt, another slower ball does the trick, just dips a little bit and gets past the bat with a full toss, plumb again...incredible from Malinga!. 58/8
11.5 to JM Mennie, this is just stunning! Another slower ball, this time he rolls the fingers across it and the yorker gets straight through his defences. 59/9

8.1 to AC Voges, Warne has his man! Pitching on middle and skidding straight through, the umpire takes his time but correctly fires him. 50/5

MATCH FLOW
  • Melbourne Stars innings
  • Rain stopped play: 29/0 off 2 overs, 15 overs lost
  • After the rain delay the umpires deemed that the conditions were fit for a resumption of play to allow for the minimum duration for a definite result of five overs for the second innings. The revised target was 20 in 5 overs and because Melbourne Stars had already passed that score the match was over. The match referee incorrectly sent the players out to face one more ball (a dot ball bowled by Cartwright to Quiney). Cricket Australia later admitted the error and the extra ball was expunged as it affected the net run rate.
  • Par score of 6 off 2 overs used to calculate the result margin
