Sams' call has been justified. he decided both Hales and himself shouldn't risk a finger and he was right

Alex Hales will consider himself lucky to be picking up the MOTM award rather than watching proceedings from a 6x8 cell in Pentonville Road Prison.

why the Strikers lost:

1) facing the might of Jono Cook
2) carey was a dumb ****
3) alex hales is good (at cricket)
4) discontent has spilled over from the South Australian camp over the issue of Adam Zampa being unfairly overlooked for shield selection and team morale has broken down

Strange game that, both teams took their turn to try and throw it away, but in the end nobody has more experience of failure than the South Australians. Tremain really is a terribad death bowler, remember him losing a game for the Renegades in almost identical fashion 2-3 years back. Just put the wide yorker away Chris, you are no good at it.

Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. And those in charge at SACA certainly possess the requisite amount of insanity

Since the Domestic Thread is on hiatus until this **** show is over.

Apparently Pucovski has found a new way to bang his skull, this time into the turf. The guy is going to end up medically retired far too early at this rate.

Batting for the Cricket Australia XI in their one-day match against the touring England Lions side, Pucovski was attempting a quick single when, as he slid his bat in order to make his ground, his bat stuck in the turf next to the drop-in pitch.

As the bat jarred, Pucovski’s momentum meant he fell forward and landed heavily, hitting his head on the ground.
that's interesting because I felt that the Sam Harper incident happened in part because he was playing on a drop in pitch which meant he had to run closer to the stumps instead of just sliding on the other pitches on the square, which led to contact with the bowler

of course the other reason it happened is because the bowler stood in his way

Jesus, this is getting ridiculous now. Can't help but feel sorry for him, but you have to wonder if these sorts of issues can only get worse

Real ragtag looking squad is that CA XI. Joof, Boyce and a bunch of random kids. GChappell gonna GChappell I guess

Yeah I don't believe Chappell actually had any say in the squad selection, but you can see clearly his whole selection ideology in this team

Why won’t tendulkar put himself out for the first time in his life and actually play? All too much to ask for a bloke who was welcomed more than any other touring player I remember, and given standing o’s everywhere on his last tour. Such a typically selfish move by him
