*Official* Big Bash League 2019/20

[NotMcKenzie]

86 in 13.5 for Perth.

Could be worse, I guess.

That batting performance was as terrible as the slowfies ad.

 

[Starfighter]

Be interested to see what happens if Boland keeps aiming at that spot. Don't get a proper patch on the wicket anywhere near enough these days.

 

[Burgey]

I wonder if this bowler is any relation to well known orthopaedic medicolegal specialist Max Ellis.

 

[Starfighter]

Good from McDermott to remain rooted to the spot rather than rushing in to try effect a run out.


This rain is not going to stop for a while.

 

[NUFAN]

Now Morgan's gone


Jaron Morgan, that is.

I was going to say last night just how noticeable the jump up in level felt for him.

Of course a televised game, on debut with a big crowd against a bowling team on top is never easy for a teenager.

 

[Burgey]

How good is this NZ customs show? Basically it’s Police 10-7 with airports.

“Like dry rot in a door, the further officers looked into the container, the more interesting things got.”

Not a metaphor I had ever heard before.

Just watching some highlights of last night- since when did Marsh bowl 145 clicks?

 

[Burgey]

He cranked it up pretty fast in the Ashes test he played too.

 

[thierry henry]

Well then - hashtag bring back Darsh I say

 

[Burgey]

I think he was fresh as he certainly wasn't tired from scoring runs.

 

[NUFAN]

Pretty funny that Abraham Benjamins first two Bash games are during the day.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Mitch Marsh has always been able to get at through at decent clip when fully fit, it's just that hasn't been the case for most of the last couple or years. Cricinfo describing him as a medium pacer is pretty wide of the mark

 

[thierry henry]

eh, I have seen Marsh playing v NZ numerous times (2014/15, 2015/16, 2016/17) and he was always, always that 126-134 guy.

 

[Prince EWS]

eh, I have seen Marsh playing v NZ numerous times (2014/15, 2015/16, 2016/17) and he was always, always that 126-134 guy.

Games against NZ have made up about 16% of his international career, and I'd say he's only been properly bowling fit for about 40% of that, so this doesn't really surprise me. What GAS said is still true though.

 

[Gnske]

I was going to say last night just how noticeable the jump up in level felt for him.

Of course a televised game, on debut with a big crowd against a bowling team on top is never easy for a teenager.

He's like older than me now though. To be fair I don't think anyone has remembered him since he played that U19 World Cup.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

That class of 2014 wasn't particularly impressive. Couple of solid state players and that's about it

 

[NUFAN]

He's like older than me now though. To be fair I don't think anyone has remembered him since he played that U19 World Cup.

Haha true. I had it in my mind that he was in the more recent under 19s.

Seemed off the pace anyway.

 

[NUFAN]

Siddle with an early wicket now bowling to ABdV.

Mouthwatering battle.

 

[Shady Slim]

i must have missed all the canes games this year because suddenly the meme this year is clive rose batting and batting well?

they used to always brand him as “can bat” but never did i see it, but looking at his scores this year wtf
