The popularity of the chorus and the success that the new cricket competition enjoyed in the 1978/79 summer season inspired the Mojo agency to recut the track and release it as a single in 1978.
The jingle's double limerick was split into two, additional refrains were added and a 2' 15" version was produced for radio release and sale.
Performed by the Mojo Singers (including Allan Johnston and other agency and recording studio personnel), it topped the charts in Australia for two weeks in February 1979.
New lyrics about members of the Australia women's cricket team, including Beth Mooney, Meg Lanning and Ellyse Perry, were written by Hamish Stewart from advertising agency GHO Sydney and recorded by Allan Johnston, one of the original creators.
