edwards doing a good job in his role as Only Young NSW Batsman
And he's done it as a walking lbw and a front leg stiffer than a corpse all through the tournament.

That's almost QLD level of grit

Anyone see Bert take the crowd catch in the first session? Can’t keep him out of the game.

don't see why the official team account felt the need to insult jack like this

NSW Blues @CricketNSWBlues
Surely he's not 18 - Jack Edwards is playing like a seasoned veteran!!

Beautiful deft touch for four! Edwards (78*), @Mozzie21 (69*). 2/166 after 28.

131 to win from 132 balls.

Do you actually not rate his technique? I think he has a lot to work with especially since he is still only 18.

Has Daniel Hughes bottle finaĺly burst.
I dont think so, but maybe. Interesting player who seems to have poor periods and than good (but not great) runs too across formats. Maybe a poor one day series = goos Shield.

Despite his dodgy looking defence Edwards certainly seems to have something. It'll be interesting if one of these two gets out, the NSW batting being a quantity over quality situation.

Edwards is getting the results and that's what counts, but he definitely doesn't look solid at all. He's had a fair bit of luck this tournament. As they say though, fortune favours the brave and he's got plenty of improving to do from age 18 so very exciting.

He can rotate the strike very efficiently too all around the field, especially when it comes to finding gaps.

The raw promise is promising.

That sounded harsher than I actually think of him. I really like Jack's style and the tools are there that make me think he has the potential to be better than average. But when I see a new batsman I like my eye always goes to how they can get better.

Yeah I read it that way too but get what you mean now. Youngest ever Australian domestic 50 over century is some effort.

Henriques has looked very good this season just quietly.

Feel for Gode who is a decent bloke and top quality all round cricketer.

NSW really have bowled their way back into this match. 350+ was on the cards with QLD 2/200 at the 30 over mark.
Wildermuth out, Prestwidge out, Gode call-up

You can't get a bigger eye-opener than a first ball duck and 4 overs for 50. As they say, it can only get better from here.

Just saw the highlights of Edwards’ knock, christ NSW where you been hiding him. Good hands and shots to all parts. Add a working defence and 2 years and he could be anything.

Henriques looks this good for NSW every season. Then he gets picked for Australia and we all know how that goes.

Do feel sorry for Gode, must be tough to plug away at grade level for years only to get a belated call up ando get taken to on debut. But I honestly don't think his bowling will ever be much chop at this level. Personally I wouldn't have went back to Feldman with the white ball either, he reminds me of your typical English county seamer these days, and that isn't a compliment.

Marcuss was telling me he doesn't typically achieve much with the ball for Valleys anyway and is basically just a batsman. He probably deserves another go as a bat, but if he's not going to bowl much the balance of their side is massively skewed as it is.

Yeah fair enough, agree that the team balance looks off though, not sure what exactly is the solution for that? I'm assuming Billy was just being cottonwooled, and will be back next game, but as a out and out #11 him returning wouldn't really help that matter

Alecz Day is available isn't he? If Daniel Sams worked, the best thing is to copy it at all costs.

Well Prestwidge was injured, I assume he'll come back in when fit (not sure when that's going to be though). The game before this one Steketee batted seven, and that's probably fraught with just as much danger as trying to get ten overs out of Gode/Hemphreys/Burns on a small ground.
