The Ashes 2013-14 : Rogers fined, now ready to relax | Cricket News | Australia v England | ESPN Cricinfo

"I got cut by the Thunder. If you get cut by the Thunder, you're probably struggling," Rogers said with a wry smile.

Yes!

 

[BeeGee]

It kind of sums T20 cricket in general though; not so much as a format of cricket but in how it's delivered to the fans at all levels.

I don't think it should even be called cricket. Call it Funkyballz.

I enjoyed the game last night, a good match of T20 cricket I thought.

What amazes me is the crowd support and how popular the league is becoming around Australia. Apparently the game up at the Gabba today is a sell out!

Does anyone know what happened to Dilshan? I assume he'll be a good pick for my fantasy team as Thunder are playing twice this round but I think he's missed a few games.

I'm probably late to the party but all the games I've seen Behrendorff bowl in this year, he's been about 10 levels above where he was a year ago. What's the mail on him? His seam position is fantastic right now, he's bowling tall, etc. Surely he has to jag a ODI this year.

 

[Burgey]

Yes!

Rogers rapidly becoming a cult hero. WAG

I definitely like Maxwell more than the average CW member so I'm happy enough to wear it, but he probably wouldn't make a list of my 50 favourite current cricketers; Turner would make the top five.

Is it just me who always wonders how Pews works this out? You seem to say it about heaps of cricketers lately. I'm not having a go I just start to think of a pews-bot who somehow works out the levels of likeness of each cricketer.

Yeah he seems to have improved so much. I don't expect him to get an ODI this year, but you would think he's starting to be in the mix. I would probably like to see him have a few more opportunities with an older ball as his strength is definitely with the new pill.

Ben Dunk is batting superb.

no way

the thunder are the worst franchise in australian sport, worse than parramatta and the demons

I make a mental note of every post on the forum, obviously.

 

[NUFAN]

I wonder how close Shah is from getting dropped from the team? He has been terrible the past few matches.

Haha. I would be pretty interested in actually seeing your list of your 50 favourite current cricketers by the way.

 

[dermo]

give us a top 5 teaser

 

[NUFAN]

I definitely like Daniel Hughes less than the average CW poster. 64% in fact like him more than me.

You could mint this post and call it currency. They are toilet. Sydney Chunder. Sydney Thunder box. Outside of Hussey they've got nothing and even he's failed the last couple of times. As I type Usman holes out and they are 4/50 and I picked them. God I hate 'em.

Back injury or something. They've really failed to get anything close to decent value out of their internationals in these last two seasons.

 

[the big bambino]

Well that was terrible. On the other hand Ben Dunk...

There's no doubt about that.

i just remembered azhar mahmood played for them last season, must've been a memorable stint
