And we won the toss at last!
Quite rare that we have a comfortable win. Wood bowled well, Vince and Jimmy batted well. But of course Rilee was the star again.
Although I would like to see a replay of the run-out appeal on Rilee. I was convinced that Rilee wasn't just out, but a long way out. He seemed to have given up trying to get in. The pick-up, turn and throw from Wagner was so quick, and almost unexpected, that I don't think the umpire was in the right position to judge. If Wagner was going to throw it, throwing it at Rilee's end seemed like the least likely end to throw at, given Wagner was on the floor facing the other end. Rilee was on about 70 at the time.
