2023-24 Australian domestic cricket season

[Gnske]

There was a guy on Reddit who was absolutely convinced that the "rf" tag on O'Neill was accurate and he was bowling 140km/h+

Just reminded of that watching him bowl with the keeper up here

Haha had a similar thought just tuning into the stream. He has to be bowling NZ spearhead speeds in the 125 kph range, at best.

Great knock by Jewell. Those are the sorts of innings we want to see in the Shield when the pitches flatten out like this.

 

[Gnske]

Is Gilkes done yet? Seriously he's not up to FC cricket

 

[morgieb]

Well Kellaway's dismissal has made more sense in light of the way Victoria have batted in the last hour.

And now they've declared, IMO prematurely.

Looking at the forecast I'm far from convinced it was premature.

Yeah I also forgot how dire this batting lineup is. Konstas may legit be the best top order batsman they have...

What's even more depressing is that I can't really argue with any of the selections (bar maybe Gilkes - and the keeping depth in NSW is well.....) either. You could argue that MacDonald deserved a longer shot but he did fail earlier in the season and Nikitaris had a good game against WA last week.

Just hire a competent umpire instead of Jarrod Abude

Best I can do is a J Wilson

Can always call in @cnerd123


or @GIMH - but you gotta wish him a Happy new year first.

How good is seeing our bright all-rounder of the future getting spanked by Beau Webster and Caleb Jewell at 7.00 RPO

At least he isn't the one handing out the spanking like other all rounders would after 10 pm in night clubs

Careful mate. you're putting the Betway deal at risk

I'd have thought Tassie might have declared with a lead of 400 or so and had a short crack at WA tonight. Apparently not.

Tassie chased down 430 vs qld on a very similiar pitch at the sane ground earlier in the season. Can't blame them that much.

Going to settle in and watch young 'uns Konstas and Davies bat the day against the Brangers, should be good

 

[TheJediBrah]

Looking forward to Jack Edwards' inevitable rear-guard 200* to get NSW the draw here

 

[TheJediBrah]

Good time for Nathan Lyon to make his maiden FC ton in a hard fought draw

 

[Prince EWS]

I have a feeling TJB thinks this might be a draw.

TJB saved by umpires call as to whether they batted the day

 

[ataraxia]

Well it took him 10 and a half years but TJB has finally caught on to gambhiring.

 

[Gnske]

Its sad when Bancroft and Whiteman are *arguably* the most competent opening pair in the FC circuit.
