*Official* Big Bash League 10 2020-21

First favourable result of the tournament.

 

[Starfighter]

Yep, definitely fair that Sydney should get point for being ahead at the half way when in both batting and bowling Hobart managed to pull it back very well from a poor start

 

[Gnske]

The power surge is basically a corporate response to all the dogshit totals in recent seasons right?

 

[TheJediBrah]

Can't believe Sixers lost that

Forkers Faulkner's revival as a T20 opening bowler continuing I see

 

[tony p]

We may as well crown the Hurricanes the new champions now.
Everybody can see that they are by far the best side, even after Clive Rose has departed.

 

[Jarquis]

Oh I see they're doing coloured caps for top run scorer again. That's definitely COVID-safe.

Do you think they fly the one cap around the country between games?

 

[_Ed_]

Sluggish start.

 

[TheJediBrah]

wtf lol

 

[Gnske]

Props to the blokes ironically cheering on Byrant

Jeez, not good to hear that. Hope all is OK.

 

[Spikey]

a) well wishes
b) what sauce(s) on the kebab

 

[Shady Slim]

yeah all the best for mrs burgey mate

feels wrong to put this in the same post, but henriques can't come back soon enough for the good guys. they bowled well enough but tactical errors as noted here with bowler management, the setting of the batting lineup and choosing when to take the "power surge" cost them in the crunch

 

[_Ed_]

So, is tonight the night where the revolutionary innovation of the X-factor subs is used for the first time?

...no. No, it's not happening tonight either.

 

[Spikey]

well the power surge was dumb. they were scoring runs easily, the RRR was still at 9 though and Silk can never be relied upon to hit boundaries. should have always been taken as late as possible

the bowling is tough with so many people missing.

as TJB said it's more bowling sok during the 'canes surge that was real galaxy brain in reverse stuff, goes against the whole logic of why spinners work in the first power play, er, surge.

as good as edwards was last night he's probably the guy who misses out come moises's return with hughes moving back to opening right? that's what i'd do at least

Cheers guys. Had C4-C7 spinal fusion on Wednesday. Went well but she’s understandably in agony today

Garlic, Hummus, Chilli.

Also, Lynn is the most widely over rated cricketer in australia bar none

The comms' analysis of the game being better than Lehmann's? Who knew?
