Why don't they play the final at SCG or MCG?

Why don't they play the final at SCG or MCG?

Both hosted AFL games last night (at least the SCG did, and the MCG will host one this weekend, minimum); I would not want to be playing on that wicket square.

Anyway, they've hosted the whole thing in Townsville for the climate, seems a touch silly to move everything down south for the final.

Lovely stuff this from Sharma. Praveen Mk 2 indeed.

****ING BUCHANAN. Throwing the game away here. Bosisto can hang around, but Head bloody well better do something.

Ashton Turner to save the day, obvs.

 

[silentstriker]

Good start but they have to keep it tight - the pitch should be good for batting for the rest of the match.

 

[uvelocity]

hows bosisto's and turners' averages

certainly have benefited from not outs

for a bloke who looks a bit limited in strokeplay, bosisto has saved their asses a few times. will get something to bowl at

Called it.

Bosisto WAG. Average of 261 and counting.

EDIT: Massive jinx. As I say that Turner gets out..

 

[uvelocity]

****in moderators

hit a sweet six before the get out shot

Bosisto has pretty much wrapped up Man of the Tournament. Loving seeing a young guy who has his game so well worked out and plays within his limits. India wouldn't have been thinking about chasing this sort of total when we were 4/38.

 

[uvelocity]

great effort take a bow son

now rip through em boys

 

[smash84]

is 225 a decent total?

 

[uvelocity]

little bit under par you'd say smiley, but in a final, it's a total

 

[silentstriker]

Not the best start...

 

[Burgey]

Jeez, these opening bowlers are sharp enough.

Fmd that's out. Poor decision.

 

[uvelocity]

we want guru

Yea, AWTA. No UDRS? I mean they broadcast it live, and it's an ICC event so BCCI can't veto it - they should have at least some UDRS even if they can't afford all of it.

The U-19 Indian team always tends to be much better than the senior team - I think it's a very damning indictment on the Indian FC development system.

 

[Spikey]

pretty crappy over that. every ball bar the last a hit me

 

[uvelocity]

If you’re talking NRL, it’s the Bulldogs for Gurinder, in fact he enjoys most sports - just not AFL

what a guy

 

[Burgey]

Ffs it's India. Just bounce them out.

Haha yea. I don't know these players but the one short delivery I saw to Chand, he got hit in the chest...
