Cricket Update - Australia Beat SouthAfrica in the Last Over

Steyn and Ntini frustrated Australia superbly, and then a brave Smith came out to bat with a broken left hand. Ntini remains unbeaten on 28 from 75 balls.
Final Test was nerve wracking, pulsating, brilliant.
However south Africa won the series, South Africa are the ones who will walk off with their heads held high. They have achieved their target of beating Australia in Australia.

Man of the Series
Smith for his 326 runs. Smith said "Things got close and I got nervous," Once AB got out and the tail was in I decided I would go in but then the guys held out pretty well. It was great to see."

Pointing said I'm proud with the way we've played all series. We were in some good positions but couldn't hold on. Congrats to Mickey and Graeme, their side was behind the eight-ball on a few occasions but came back well and thats the sign of a great side. Here, the weather held off and we were able to win.

Cricket Update - England Likely to appoint New Coach

England Current Coach Moores and England Captain Kevin Pietersen are at loggerheads over the selection of Michael Vaughan for the West Indies tour.

Moores was one of the four selectors who decided not to recall Vaughan for the West Indies tour against Pietersen's wishes. With Ashes only six months away, England cannot wait to solve this problem.

Although the final decisions have yet to be made, the likeliest outcome is that Moores will not be the coach when England fly to the West Indies Jan 21, reports The Daily Telegraph.

If Morris cannot reconcile England's captain and coach, the popular idea is that Giles should take the team to the Caribbean as the temporary or emergency coach.

Giles has been an Ashes winner, England selector, a member of the last England team to win in the West Indies, and someone who has had a lengthy playing relationship with Pietersen.

Only thing the former left-arm spinner lacks is the experience of coaching.
