Big Bash League 2014/15

[Antihippy]

Pattinson was great. Hopefully his back hold out.

 

[Spark]

Patto looks great. Looks like he'll become more of a whippy, skiddy sort of swing/seam bowler, despite still hitting 145 with decent bounce. Probably less injury prone too, since he's more side-on.

Crowds... well, look at tonight.

On a scale of 1-10, how wet is Nufan now?

 

[Nate]

He is Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire wet.

Well fill me in the success of the big bash.

My internet isnt working very well right now. Bloody spanish

10!

I mean there is a massive chance that Ludesss gets an Aussie call-up in the T20 format now and it would be completely justified.

Loved KP in commentary. His analysis was great. His comment that Monty getting Sachin out LBW in Mumbai 2006 changed the way spinners get LBWs post hawkeye was magnificent.

When asked who was the toughest bowler he ever faced, he said "that naughty guy who bowled some no balls at Lords, Mohammad Asif" So honest too, Asif was a gun too and did trouble KP.

Also loved him saying "hey ho" everytime he was basically saying "yeah but what ya gonna do?"

Sprayed the ECB good too, which was cool.

 

[Dan]

He is Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire wet.

So a 7.8, then?

Too much water IMO.

Yeah really enjoyed him. Got quite the hyena laugh too.

 

[Coronis]

Loved KP in commentary.

100% disagree.

Kallis on fire in Perth tonight.

 

[ajdude]

thunder gon' thunder this

 

[Spikey]

feel for mcdonald

and the thunder too. Bedwetter, Usman, Patterson and now McDonald on the injury list.

 

[Spark]

wait, what's wrong with patterson?

 

[vic_orthdox]

Also serious knee injury, I heard on commentary the other day.

 

[Spikey]

no more details though. just "he's out for the BBL". Great update bud.

wasnt expecting to see lalor hit 140mk/h

 

[SeamUp]

Behrendorff is alright. Seen a bit of him (only T20 format of course) but if I had to stick my neck out, I wouldn't say he has the same potential as Pattinson, Hazlewood, Starc & Cummins.

Joel Paris on the other hand does from the little I have seen. When is he back ?

Seems like another young fast bowler suffering from injuries. Happening in SA domestic cricket & even English cricket. Definitely crept into the game because young fast bowlers didn't get this many serious injuries early in their careers 20+ years ago.

 

[Howsie]

Tell that to New Zealand cricket.

 

[adub]

I'd have Behrendorf in front of Starc with a red ball. In the white ball stuff perhaps not but he's still very handy.

 

[Jono]

100% disagree.

You actually can't disagree that I loved KP in commentary ftr.

 

[NUFAN]

Agar's innings last night really annoyed me. He finally hits one right out of the meat of the bat from the last ball of the game. Scorchers are seriously lacking that dangerous middle order bat who can club sixes (someone did make this point a few games ago, just saying I agree with them).
