Australian Domestic Season 2017/18

[TheJediBrah]

Very surprised that Tassie batted first. Given that they need an outright win and already lost a day you'd think they'd want to bowl first to give themselves the best chance.

 

[NUFAN]

Scoreboard pressure I guess. They can control the game IF they make a good score first innings.

 

[Jarquis]

Is anyone going down?

 

[stephen]

I went and took the kids. They 1yo loved having a hit with his toy cricket set and the 3yo had fun watching and running around the fence.

Was a good morning of cricket that I didn't get to watch too much of. Taking care of two kids is hard work sometimes.

Is anyone else having trouble getting the CA river working?

It keeps taking me to a subscription page and then saying that no subscriptions are available.

 

[stephen]

Woo, figured it out. Down the bottom of the site.

What an irritating redesign.

 

[Midwinter]

Thought these two Tassie batsmen might have pushed the scoring a bit now that they have been in a while ,

 

[Gnske]

Is Simon Milenko the quintessential 'handy' player?

 

[GoodAreasShane]

This Tasmanian tail is proving rather difficult to dislodge. QLD look a bit flat.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Renshaw being ultra aggressive when all Qld need to do is draw. Itstl.

 

[Spikey]

probably just wants to get back onto the field and show the world he can ball temper with the best of them

 

[Spark]

Renshaw being ultra aggressive when all Qld need to do is draw. Itstl.

probably realises there's a test spot there for him

 

[Spikey]

probably misses his old glasses

 

[TheJediBrah]

probably shouldn't have got out

 

[stephen]

I imagine we will lose more time this afternoon to rain and/ or light.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Is Simon Milenko the quintessential 'handy' player?

Pretty much, seems like the quintessential bits and pieces man. Even back in the Big Bash, he was originally picked for his mediums but got tonked in his first over and then hardly bowled for the rest of the tournament. His lower order hitting however proved more than useful on multiple occasions.

 

[stephen]

Looks like this is set to fizzle out into a draw. When it's not waterlogged the outfield looks incredible. A lush, thin carpet. And obviously the pitch is a road with scores like these.

 

[stephen]

Are QLD on track for the highest ever first class score without a single player making a century? 6-416 is crazy high.

 

[Prince EWS]

Are QLD on track for the highest ever first class score without a single player making a century? 6-416 is crazy high.

Record in Tests is 524/9.
2nd Test, New Zealand tour of India at Kanpur, Nov 18-23 1976 | Match Summary | ESPNCricinfo

Might be a higher one in non-Test First Class games, but I think Queensland will be up against it to even reach that mark.

solid batting performance by the bananabenders
