also 70 runs has to be pushing the leaderboard for most expensive T20 spells right?

Its the BBL record not sure about worldwide.

Here's a quote from Chris Lynn's batting pamphlet on facing spin

Ok you’ve done the hard work against the spin. Or maybe not, sometimes in T20 it’s time to hit the “go” button as soon as the spinner comes on.

Here's one from Lynn on man management

Good teams will have a set of standards that they want every player to abide by. Both at training and on match day. Things like punctuality, dress standard, training intensity etc.

Have to say that was one of the worst displays of captaincy I have seen, just leaving Guthrie to work it out on his own. Frankly all the senior Heat players are culpable for it. Guthrie is 24 so not exactly a kid any more but you can’t just leave a bowler getting savaged like that.

Was trying to find his CLT20 academy page but remembered it got deleted ages ago sadly. His manifesto on T20 however is available for all to read.

Chris Lynn recommends cross bat shots against the turning ball

 

[Gnske]

Chris Lynn also recommends fast footwork against spin. Says nothing about playing a fast and straight one from a spinner weirdly enough. Must be a draft document.

Zampa lives in Byron? It's all making a lot of sense

oh my god

Can I just say that the HEAT are the most crap team in the BBL.

 

[Spark]

!!

 

[Gnske]

If only the other WA all rounder could bat like his classy progenitors

Weird that Guthrie has managed to concede 10 and 70, both from four overs, within the space of a couple of weeks.

 

[tony p]

HEAT have NFI do they.

 

[Gnske]

Should have opened with spin, would have saved a ball on Bryant.

Another quote from T20 mastermind Chris Lynn

Obviously limit loss of wickets. That’s going to help you at the end of the innings. The field is up and it’s a time you need to take on the bowlers. You would look to go with 1 if not 2 really aggressive batsmen. The goal is to get somewhere between 45-55 runs in the first 6 overs for maximum 1 wicket. If you can achieve somewhere around that, then you’re right on top

 

[_Ed_]

Well, that was an eventful first over.

 

[Gnske]

I wonder how Chris will use his batting basics to combat Glenn Maxwell

 

[Gnske]

Duckett's been reading Lynn's manifesto, 100% commitment to the shot.

Bloody good one

 

[Spikey]

in a game where a fielder caught it and just walked over the rope, Jimmy Peirson has outdone it: run-out with his bat in the air.

11:55pm BBL is lit

I bet Hales is struggling to remember Sangha's first name here
