Gone In 60 Seconds

I logged in to write about Craig McMillan the one who had such a promising start to his Test career. Till today I can recall the 6 he hit off Shane Warne at the MCG in his debut test clearing the long boundary with consummate ease. Today however he finds himself barely hanging on to his place in the team thanks to a series of injuries. Today however he hit Warne for another super six straight back and just as I was going to write celebrating that hit, he is now dismissed. According to Cricinfo:


69.6 Warne to McMillan, OUT: from round the wicket, pitches on leg stump
and spins away, McMillan tries to play a sweep shot, misses it and
ball hits the off stump

New Zealand 201/8, Partnership of 17
CD McMillan b Warne 20 (34b 2x4 1x6)


New Zealand in further trouble

typical Warne dismissal! Kaneria managed to get Karthik in a somewhat similar fashion.
