Kent Cricket News ------------------------------------------------- http://www.kent.cricket.org ----------------------- Sun 17 Jan 1999 England beat Australia in Sydney England have won their latest match in the Carlton and United Series after a 8 run victory over Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground a few moments ago to make up for the game they lost on Friday. The home side were set a massive 283 for victory from their 50 overs following 108 by Graeme Hick and 93 by Nasser Hussain. England were 282 for 4 from their 50 overs so Kent's Mark Ealham did not bat - but he did bowl, finishing with figures of 10-0-52-0. As the last over of the match began, Australia needed 15 off six balls - but tight bowling from Ashley Giles meant they could only score 7.
