Australian Domestic Season 2016/17

[Midwinter]

Vic 200 in front on the first innings.

A good performance by Nedders Holland

Trying for quick runs backfired on them.

Croweaters still in with a chance with 2 days to go

 

[Midwinter]

Night watchman Tremain out

3/83 Finch in

Need 200

 

[Midwinter]

307 in front

Anxiously calculating simultaneous runs vs time equations

 

[Midwinter]

Dean out, White in

Zampa's first wicket

4/117

 

[TheJediBrah]

Funny how bringing the part-timer on changed things. Dalton made 2-3 genuine chances in just a few overs, should have had Finch lbw and dropped a caught and bowled.

 

[Midwinter]

324 ahead at lunch.

Need White to make some runs

 

[Midwinter]

Cameron White has had a shocka of a second half of the season, averaging 14. Out for 4

5/150

350 ahead

One of those players that I think the Big Bash really hurt this year. Never got it back after having a pretty meh Big Bash.

 

[Midwinter]

Only scoring shot in the last 15 balls

6 by Finch !

 

[Starfighter]

Zampa heading towards the Nathan Bracken look it seems.

Time is now becoming a factor.

If the Vics make it through the next hour and add 40 runs it becomes an eventime run chase for SA,,around 420 in 420 mins at 3.5 an over.

Commentators right now are terrible. Seem to know absolutely nothing about the game and barely even seem to be watching what's happening.

Bowler bowls a full toss, "that one really bounced up at the batsman". Also didn't seem to realise there was a new ball due at 80 overs.

Especially jarring given how good some of the others have been, like the SA assistant coach and a few others.

The fact that there was a dropped catch off the very first ball of the fourth Test and they didn't realise until the following delivery was the nadir.

EDIT: Wait, this is the AusDom thread. Ignore my terrible, terrible Spark.

 

[Midwinter]

It looks Vic has got this

450 ahead 4 wickets in hand.

SA's bowlers just couldn't do it for them.

MOTM - Seb Gotch

Vics in danger of a sub 400 score but saw them to 487 in the first innings then batted SA out of the game in the second.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Really hope vics declare right now to at least make the day interesting, even though SA have no chance. If they bat for another session or even an hour then the whole day is just a waste.

At least it would be nice to see SA bat for a day chasing a huge target.

Its time for the shield final to go tbqh. A system where Victoria can win three in a row is a broken system.

SA hosted the final last year despite having 5 wins and 5 losses, whereas Vic (2nd place) had 5 wins and 3 losses (with 2 draws)

that's a broken system
