Australian Domestic Season 2018/19

[Eloquentia]

Tasmanian top order would be feeling pretty dirty, yikes. Those Copeland balls were rank

Does Bailey bat like Rainman in Shield or only in LO matches ?

 

[GotSpin]

The highlight video for Sangha is....not really encouraging

Didn't see the whole innings but the highlights look really average

 

[Gnske]

Had one good hook at least.

Obviously only showing the boundaries will give you a limited viewing point, but boy, you wouldn't mind getting him driving based on that

His really closed off stance was still there against the pacers, probably a bit less pronounced though. Looked pretty conventional against spin though

When you leave a gap the size of ****ing Bass Strait in the corden to a guy throwing hands at everything tho.

His technique kind of looks like a taller, lankier, looser Hashim Amla

 

[GotSpin]

Those slashing drives without any foot movement...

Just saw a video of Steve Smith in a grade match. Huge crowd actually

Pretty nice ground too, decent stands.

I know the players want to play at the big grounds and there's obviously a big bonus to playing FC cricket where the test matches are, but I'd consider playing some more shield matches at suburban grounds. Turn it into a bit of an event. Get some food trucks, alcohol trucks and make it into a bit of a fair as well.

I'm far more likely to attend at AB Field than at the Gabba. Doing this though would remove some of the home ground advantage for the test side. And the Gabba is a much nicer field to play on that AB Field with better drainage.

Probably the second half of the season then

I don't mind seeing cricket in some of the smaller surburban grounds, has a nice vintage feel to it.

Except Hurstville ofc

I don't know why this isn't a regular thing. I'll gladly shill for Drummoyne Oval getting more gigs.

It's always hard to believe that Copeland gets wickets. But somehow he does. All the time.

 

[GotSpin]

Pat Howard sawn off now as well

Yeah it sounds like a great idea but when their idea of a "nice smaller suburban ground" is Hurstville . . .

UNSW's Village Green is the best in SPC.
