gallant

Victoria held on for a gallant draw today.

I’m not sure what a gallant draw is, but that’s exactly what they managed.

Mark Cameron and Beau Casson, absolute champions of world cricket, just scraped together 18 wickets between them.

Which is a great sign for Victoria as Cameron may not even get a Guernsey for the final.

Beau Casson took 7 wickets in the match, which probably makes him favourite for the Pakistan tour.

Lets look at what this drawn game means for Victoria.

They are now guaranteed a spot in the final. Woohoo.

Cameron White almost made back to back 50’s. Not bad.

CWB’s Nice Bryce took 5 wickets, and if he had a bit more time could have made a real mess to the NSWales tail. Conjecture.

We still have Harwood, Denton and Nannes to come back. Hopefully.

McDonald continued his resurgence from injury, taking wickets and making runs. Shane who?

Hodge and Hussey continued to be Hodge and Hussey, which is a good and bad thing. Nothing new.

Now let us forget the weird NSWales selections, their obvious cheating to get Hussey out of the side, and the fact two nobodies bowled us out on their own and look forward to taking on the Tasmanians in the Holden Barina cup.

George Bailey beware.

I don't even know what type of bowler this guy Beau Casson is but given we are going to the carribean soon we need a man with a name like his.

Augie Logie, Colin Croft, Eldine Baptiste are history, all they've got now is Darren Powell - probably the root of all the Windies problems. They've lost their namejo.

He is a Chinaman bowler, and the phrase came from the carribean, so that may work.
