*Official* Big Bash League 2019/20

[Gnske]

The news is that the Scorchers have won the bat flip and will bat first tonight against the Heat.

Scorchers XI: 1 Liam Livingstone, 2 Josh Inglis (wk), 3 Sam Whiteman, 4 Cameron Bancroft, 5 Mitchell Marsh (capt.), 6 Cameron Green, 7 Tim David, 8 Chris Jordan, 9 Jhye Richardson, 10 Joel Paris, 11 Fawad Ahmed

Alright, now to the main event

We're going to get 16 times the Tim David tonight, and we're going to enjoy it.

 

[Gnske]

Boland put in a mighty effort fielding there. Bad luck son.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

So can Cameron Green bowl now or are scorchers going in with only 5 bowlers, inc. Marsh?

Pretty sure Green won't bowl all tournament. Makes me sad as I still think he is a bowler first and foremost

 

[Bat Flip]

Scorchers to get well over 200?

flying start 0/38 3 overs

 

[Gnske]

Liam Livingstone's accent bothers me.

 

[NUFAN]

I am keen to see Whiteman hit the ball down deep midwicket/fine legs throat.

 

[Daemon]

2 down.

 

[Daemon]

3 down. Bancroft, who was overshadowed by his junior partner in the matchwinning partnership in the last game is at the crease now.

 

[NUFAN]

Whiteman is such a waste. Might as well bring in David at 3 to bop one over long off for 6.

 

[Gnske]

Being on the phone at the cricket, poor.

 

[Daemon]

Bancroft is such a waste of time, put him out of misery already

 

[NUFAN]

Mitch Marsh has batted so well today.

 

[Daemon]

Why isn't the BBL 30 overs

 

[Gnske]

Just when the Marsh family was about to disappear, it lives on.

 

[Spikey]

no wonder, they didn't bowl their second best bowler, matt renshaw

 

[Jarquis]

That was some decidedly ‘not good’ bowling by Ben Laughlin

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Laughlin has definitely declined a bit. Been a quality T20 bowler for years but time is starting to catch up with him

Just when the Marsh family was about to disappear, it lives on.

M Marsh really should be in the LO teams if he's at full bowling fitness. Vastly underrated as a LO batsman.

 

[Spark]

He definitely should have been in the WC squad instead of Stoinis.

 

[NUFAN]

Stoinis was coming off ODI player of the year honours so I guess the selectors figured Stoin should keep his spot.

I definitely prefer MMarsh over Turner and Handscomb in Aussies ODI middle order.
