Victoria giving the single to get Renshaw off strike for the last 5 overs.

Who wouldn't chomp at the bit to have a bowl at Charlie Hemphrey?

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Think Dan Hughes may have thrown away a century there, this pitch is doing pretty much nothing at the moment.

Poorly timed runs these from renshaw and Wade. If they'd have made these in the first three shield rounds they'd never have been dropped.

 

[Second Spitter]

It's good that they thought it was a good idea to rest Bancroft. I'm sure he'll have ample opportunity to find his form against Philander, Rabada, and Ngidi.

I know I'm nobody, but I'm curious as to what you mean.

He's been demoted to "pie thrower".

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Some more quality bowling from Nick Winter, but admittedly he was helped by NSW engaging lower order collapse mode again. Having a left armer adds a fair bit of dimension to this Redbacks attack.

 

[Starfighter]

NSW scoring more than I thought they might. Pretty much all the runs coming from just two bats though. Also how the hell do you bowl twelve wides in a FC innings? Winter with a nice start to his career, 2nd five-for in two matches.

Kurtis Patterson and Joe Root really are two peas in a pod when it comes to converting 50s

Five were in one ball, tbf. Still seems high though.

Do we all agree that picking the Test squad before at least a couple of rounds of Shield was a bonehead move by the selectors?

Stats are incomplete though, as he made 80 odd second dig in he last futures match too.

no

 

[stephen]

getting the selection wrong doesn't mean they timed it poorly.

Kp is class. Maddinson getting picked ahead of him last year was a joke and i like maddog

Ah, doing what J. Richardson was attempting to do last match. The thirty extras are quite a hefty contribution when you consider that the third best batsman got 19.

from NoInfo:

Winter, who took 5 for 85 on debut against Victoria last week, ripped the heart out of an experienced Blues middle order, with the home side threatening to build a huge platform.

What middle order? What threat?



Also Vics maybe looking a little silly for bowling first.

 

[Second Spitter]

no

Jokes on you when Nevill scores 275* in the second innings.

Were you not entertained?

 

[Starfighter]

I'm very mildly amused. Not sure I really needed the reminder of how clueless he looked.

 

[Second Spitter]

Imagine how Callum Ferguson felt
