Looking forward to returning to this thread tomorrow when Watson is 146* and posting to say "JUST CAME IN HERE TO LOL AT WATSON LOL ROFL LOL".

Top game to kick off the T20 today. Hastings is having one massive season for the Vics. If he was still playing in NSW he would already be in the Test squad :dry:

Will make it to the Victoria game on the 2nd of Jan, missed far too much domestic action this season.

Went to the match tonight was great fun but so annoying to see it finish the way it did.

Taylor was a class above all the other batsman tonight, brilliant innings.

Wouldn't be surprised if john hastings is earmarked for the one day and international 20/20 team.
Has huge talent,would like him to to bat in the tops 6.
Remember jon moss started at no 8 and mcdonald 7.

Harris hitting some form. Other than that a disappointing loss. Seriously surprised they got 36 overs in, it's been raining pretty much constantly for the last two days. Exactly as long as my clothes have been on the washing line :/

Love Ross Taylor and Dwayne Bravo because they're Victorians! :ph34r:
Just saw the highlights - Victoria in winning by nefarious means shocker!

Honestly, if Australia was Europe then Victoria would be our England. Dire.

I just saw that the Victorians cheated their way to another win. That was a six no matter who you are. Grrrr.

No, it's not. Am absolutely sick to death of people who are so sure of themselves about this issue, only to look immensely foolish. It's so often the same people who have never played cricket aswell.

From the Cricinfo article -

With regard to the contentious call, on-field umpire Bruce Oxenford admitted it was something the lawmakers needed to review. "It's an anomaly in the laws, but without the fieldsman being grounded, a boundary is not scored," he told AAP. "It's clearly covered that a man can while positioning himself inadvertently cross the line. However, he wouldn't be allowed to come running up the stands and jump off the fence because that would be intentionally leaving the field of play."

Chris Simpson, Queensland's captain, initially protested but accepted the decision later. "The actual rule was different to what we thought and short of that we need to read our rule book a bit closer," he said. "The way our team sees it is: rules are rules. It turned out to be a fantastic piece of fielding."
I can't wait until this comes up again. :(

Was a great game to watch, absolutely loved Bravo and Taylor's innings!

I was sitting behind 3 lesbian couples which probably sounds better than it actually was, I'd only have done one of them, perhaps a second one if I was Smitteh.

RHarris and JHastings were both so gun, they are both really good cricketers IMO. Can't wait to see QLD vs TAS next Friday.

Letter vs spirit. It is clearly against the spirit of the game to stand on the rope while fielding and not have it called as a boundary or 6.
