WATCH HISTORY UNFOLD AT THE 2012 PRIME MINISTER’S XI
Watch history unfold at the 2012 Prime Minister’s XI Manuka Oval will be buzzing with excitement on Friday February 3, 2012 as the World Cup runners up, the Sri Lankan Cricket team, return to Canberra to chalk up another win after their victory over the Prime Minister’s XI side in 2008.
Handpicked by our Prime Minister, the 2012 side will be made up of the best up-and -comers on the Australian cricket scene, as well as past and current high-profile players from our world-class national side.
Be there to watch the fierce rivalry unfold on Manuka Oval’s perfectly primed pitch, enjoy the atmosphere, the sunshine, the crowd and the banter—all the things that make our national game and the culture of cricket so great.
The PMs XI—a colourful history 2012 will see the 39th Prime Ministers XI match contested. While the PMs XI history is short, it has certainly not gone without its share of memorable matches and controversy. • Inaugurated by Robert Menzies, the first PMs XI match was played against the West Indies in 1951, which resulted in a draw. • 1984 saw the Prime Minister’s XI take on the Parliamentary Press Gallery XI in what was dubbed the ‘Pollies vs Press’ match. Then Prime Minister Bob Hawke took to the field and while batting he took a ball to the face, smashing his glasses in the process. While he retired hurt for treatment, he later returned to the crease to take the PM’s XI to victory. • The Sri Lankan team has only played the Prime Minister’s XI side once in 2008 and took out the match by four wickets.
• The match on December 2, 2005 had to end early due to storms in Canberra, with Australia making 4/316, and the West Indies finishing in the 31st over at 3/174. The PM’s XI won by six runs using the Duckworth-Lewis method. • In 2006/2007 England lost to the Prime Minister’s XI by 166 runs. The game was scheduled earlier than usual (November 10) due to the Ashes Series. It was the first English tour match of the summer.
