That is a clinic from the Queensland Bulls. They bowled magnificently as a unit to restrict Tasmania to 8 for 118. the after losing two wickets early James Hopes and Lee Carseldine cruised to the victory target. Their partnership was 94 unbeaten off just 68 balls. Hopes was magnificent with 65 from 44. He is a worthy Man-of-the-Match. Thanks for you're company tonight. Join us tomorrow from the Adelaide Oval as two West Indians Kieron Pollard and Dwayne Bravo headlining the Redbacks and Bushrangers. Until then, from me Alex Malcolm, good bye.
