00:00Good strike rate of 70.9, average of 32.7 and that's a big whiff for the Canberra Comets
00:12to dismiss Elliott.
00:13Occasionally he does get across a bit far, he glanced at it and the wick keeper Duncan
00:18Breed took a fine catch.
00:21Stewart he'd be buoyed by that.
00:24Dismiss Elliott early and get into the middle order, it can change the face of the game
00:27very quickly.
00:29Two slips in for Brad Hodge.
00:40I suppose you can be a bit fortunate to pick up a batsman glancing but Elliott you see
00:44falls away here a bit, glances and the wick keeper does a good job.
00:50It's that front leg that causes the problem, his initial movement, he goes over too far
00:56and when he tries to straighten back up he just hasn't got the time against genuine
01:01pace, medium fast.
01:09It's nicely played.
01:13He's fallen over, it's not happening for Brad Hodge at the moment, he's been hit on the
01:16sky and he's fallen over and almost run out as well.
01:19It's a cracking shot, that's probably the shot of the match so far.
01:27Some width and Hodge went for it, got it right off the meat of the bat.
01:42And back he comes, that's good running.
01:49Gets it away nicely, two shot, he's a good pull of the ball, that's four.
01:55He needs some boundaries, they've been contained here by the Comets.
02:03Fine shot, he splits the gap between third man and cover point.
02:08It's a beautiful boundary.
02:11Two for 85.
02:12Fine shot, good back foot player, Brad E. Hodge.
02:28Nick races away, brings up the hundred, with a loss of two wickets.
02:35That's the ideal spot to hit them as a batsman here at Punt Road Oval.
02:41After a couple of alarms early on, it's been pretty well plain sailing.
02:46That's a good shot.
02:50Can't bowl straight off breaks and drop short on this pitch.
02:57That's a great shot, that's beautifully played.
02:59There's two men in the deep, splits them perfectly, far too short by Snart, pays the penalty.
03:0622 off the last 13 balls from Bradley Hodge.
03:09Full Tyson, that'll bring up his 50.
03:12Another boundary.
03:14Melbourne viewers will be leaving this at the end of this over.
03:17I suggest you come down here this afternoon.
03:19Very pleasant conditions, Hodge starting to fire.
03:22Gets into the 50s, the Victorians well placed.
03:28Yes, he's really starting to take toll of some ordinary bowling at the moment.
03:32And with those short boundaries and plenty of sixers on offer.
03:47As a result, this time, who's emulating Ian Zermaan.
03:51It's four more.
