G1
Clarke Supershot
O'Leary dribble..?
Chapman 3ys of C2
Dumergue shooting from A baulk... Misses to NB a few yards E of 6

Clarke hits, going round, currently appraoching h4 in control

Has made 3b... Croqueted Y (Dumergue) to EB level with the peg, rushes R up to the NB, playing a think take off/croquet stroke from NB level with 3 sending r to the WB going to partner near c4... thats travelling.. just croquets R off the WB s of h2, B finishes up 1yN of h4.

What will the aussies do? On the court thinking... Clarke 4b everyone else H1

Dumergue shoots at B in front of h4 from A baulk.. hits.. K is a few yards out of c4.. looks like a pretty good take off.. has a 2y rush to h1

Its a massive cut to H2 rather than h1.. good take off an gets a rush on R to h1.. approaching from a few yards.. all laid out for him.. I missed what happened, but his all is now in front of h1. Was it a rejection or did he over/underapproach?

Chapman shooting from h2 at them.. could be a double..? Likes it!!!

Nope. glides past and he's coming back to the shelters.

Didn't see which Aussie plays, but Chapman is back by h2 with Aussie balls both near H1.. doesn't shoot at them this time.. goes at partner.. Misses to 4yN of c4

Dumergue out onto the lawn now.. will he approach h1 from 4 yards or go over to B an K to try an improve the approach

Hampered out of 2.. referee called.. no problems Currently approaching h4 in complete control

Dumergue still going round no worries.. approaching h6 now

Approaching 2b still in control.. K (Chapman) is in an NSL position.. with B at 3b so thats what I think he's going for

Sticks in 3b

Clarke set a leave with Dumergue E of 3b, O'Leary N of h2 an Chapman an Clarke laid up in c1.. O'Leary middled the ball in c1, had just about a break but rejected out of h3.. same again with Kiwi's laid up in c1 but O'Leary is just E of h3 and Dumergue is sent SE of H2 - is it wired from O'Leary?

Dumergue misses to c1.. good chance for Chapman

Over approaches h1 and fails the jump. Dumergue has a 12 yarder.. misses.. Chapman has dug out the break, made H2 an is away..

No TP attempt, this will be a break to peg/rover

Had a bit of trouble at 1b.. had to play a jump but plays it an has control adagin approaching 2b

Has made 3b, Chapman an Clarke now on the lawn discussing the leave

Has Chapman stuck in rover? It's getting tested... its clear. O'Leary has a 2 yarder at the ball in the jaws an is for H3 with B a few yards N of the peg an Y over on the WB peg high

Clarke has hit and is finishing with a straight rover peel...

Clarke rushes to 2y SE of the peg.. round of applause NZ takes G1
26-11

Hoops are being checked, will let you know when G2 is underway

G2
Dumergue plays K to EB level with 5
Clarke just S of c2
O'Leary heads to c3 and will be shooting at partner down the line... Not happy with it, did he hit his foot or the court? Misses to 7y S of K
Chapman heads to c3...

Misses to c4

Aus have laid up in c3 with a ball 7yS of 5 (Chapman) and Y 2yS of h2.. Chapman shooting at the H2 ball

Nope.. first chance for O'Leary now

Has done all the hard work picking the break up but fails H4 giving Chapman a 3 yarder and a ball at H1.. hits

Chapman round to 4b and Clarke currently on a break to Rover/Peg and about to approach 1b
O'Leary still on H4 an Dumergue still on h1

Clarke hampered after 3b.. the clip goes on 4b an the players stop for lunch

Set's a leave, Dumergue shoots, misses, chance for Chapman to go to rover/peg

Goes round, ph call interrupts me sorry!!! Clarke just pegs out to take the game and the match

NZ 10 AUS 2

G2 was 26-6 and I've just been informed Clarke was for rover, took off from C2 to a ball in C4 an got a rush to Rover. Played for?? ;) Well done to the Kiwi pair to continue their unbeaten run in the doubles so far this Mac
