*Official* Big Bash League 2019/20

[Burgey]

Y no Gilkes b4 Ussie and Cal?

 

[stephen]

Cutting for the last over is a huge risk.

 

[Burgey]

If anyone can make a game of this with the ball it’s Ben Cutting

 

[stephen]

No no balls or wides here Cutting.

 

[Gnske]

The experience, the sheer cricketing IQ from the big man.

Congratulations Ben Cutting on securing the victory and stealing the match away.

 

[NUFAN]

I am very surprised that my Heat bet wasnt voided.

I got on them after the toss but before the rain. Shorter game really suited them.

 

[tony p]

i am a 52 year old traditionalist and luddite.

unfortunately, i didn't enjoy this match. we may as well get rid of bowlers and stick a bowling machine from each end.

 

[TheJediBrah]

That trivago ad is by far the most annoying cricket ad at the moment.

Best are the channel 7 KFC ones. Kid in the test being teased by his mate out the window, and of course the bird adjusting her ass and **** in the car window is always a success

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Renegades have ended up randomly signing Samit Patel, didn't see that one coming

They have dredged Fekete back up too, lord knows why, Mennie and Wildermuth who have been dropped are both vastly superior bowlers

They're trying to make sure they don't repeat last year's fluke success.

 

[Daemon]

Please drop me a VM the next time Tim David is playing. ffs man. Where do I catch highlights of his brutal six?

 

[TheJediBrah]

Why are the Renegades still looking for terrible English players? They should have learned their lesson with that Gleeson hack. Worst player I've ever seen in the Big Bash. Just pick a decent local grade cricketer, probably be cheaper too.

 

[Gnske]

He must have had something going for him in the English comp because picking fast bowlers in T20s without real tricks or nous these days is just handing runs away.

 

[TheJediBrah]

I'd just recruit whichever leg-spinner from the subconitent seems decent and is available. They always seem to dominate regardless of how obscure their origins.

Surprised Tahir doesn't hasn't ever been picked up considering he's such a team slut - South Africa, Chennai Super Kings, Delhi Daredevils, Derbyshire, Dolphins, Durham, Durham 2nd XI, Easterns, Guyana Amazon Warriors, Hampshire, Hampshire 2nd XI, Lahore City, Lahore Lions, Lahore Ravi, Lahore Whites, Lions, Middlesex, Middlesex 2nd XI, Multan Sultans, Nottinghamshire, Pakistan A, Pakistan International Airlines, Pakistan Under-19s, Redco Pakistan Ltd, Rising Pune Supergiants, Sialkot, South Africa A, Staffordshire, Sui Gas Corporation of Pakistan, Surrey, Sussex 2nd XI, Titans, Warriors, Warwickshire, Warwickshire 2nd XI, Water and Power Development Authority, World-XI, Yorkshire

****ing hell he must have some manager

 

[Burgey]

Wait. There's really a team called "Rising Pune Supergiants"? Surely they were shamed out of the sport.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

My (all Australian) team of the season so far:

DJM Short
JR Philippe
CA Lynn
CJ Ferguson (C)
JW Wells
AT Carey (WK)
DR Sams
A Zampa
SA Abbott
RP Meredith
LA Pope

Tail perhaps a touch long but think it's a pretty good team. Deliberately tried to avoid playing too many players out of position

 

[Gnske]

I think their real name is singular, just Rising Pune Supergiant.

Still beats the **** out of the Mzansi Super League names and those of The Hundred.

Yes. It is important to get these things right.

I remember the name and logo (a Harry Potter snitch) were heavily debated on here when they came into existence.

I believe they recently changed their name to the singular "Rising Pune Supergiant". There was an announcement, rebranding and everything.

Their logo is hilarious. It's the golden snitch, but a cricket ball and the wings are made of cricket bats.
