*Official* Big Bash League 14 - 2024/25

Loved the energy at the end there. Punter sounded like he was ready to get out there and tear david a new one after he missed a run out and Davey just walked straight past ben cuttings wife as she tried to interview him.

 

[Shady Slim]

daily reminder that highish full tosses should be called no-ball

who remembers the era of the unhittable dj bravo zooper dooper big dipper which came for the batsman's shoulder before finishing just below the knee lol

 

[Starfighter]

As a recreational player, I enjoy batting against them (easy runs), but take your point!

No it's a stupid point.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Is this Hasnain the guy that was chucking?

Edit: yes looks like it

 

[Starfighter]

Wide, drop catch. Good start.

 

[Molehill]

Thunder wasting Dan Christian here. What are they doing

If Molehill is saying this he must be truly awful. I guarantee most Grade cricketers plodding around Austtalia will be better than your average county player

The BBL seems very much on a par with The Hundred, it ought to be a higher quality than it actually is. I'd really like to see what a County Blast team would do against these franchises because I fancy that team spirit and better understanding might well cause a few surprises.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

That delivery looked a bit more legal

Just a shame it was a leg stump half volley

 

[Starfighter]

Wow that's a big hit. Edit: actually not that big, pitch must be a bit to one side.

Is this Hasnain the guy that was chucking?

Edit: yes looks like it

Yes. Allegedly he's fixed it sufficiently. For those who aren't too cheap to pay for Kayo (I am) you might be blessed to see a Fox skeleton replay.

 

[TheJediBrah]

I think I love Mitch Owen. He could be anything. Too bad his bowling hasn't progressed as well as his batting

 

[social]

I used to like Ellis but the only planet on which he’s a better bowler than Meredith or Stanlake is called Availability

Simon O'Donnell could also produce a good one. This even made the ''It's moments like these you need Minties'' ads @jcas0167

 

[Spikey]

already the thunder bold ploy of not hitting any sixes seems to have failed

 

[Starfighter]

That delivery deserved to be hit onto the roof.

 

[TheJediBrah]

He's a way better white ball bowler than both those guys and has been for years. Argument could be made that he should be in Australia's first choice XIs even

You seem to live on a planet in which neither of the latter two have often been terrible (which they have, especially Stanlake by a distance)

Been fun to watch in the Shield too at times recently

 

[TheJediBrah]

I would love to come out and open the batting against Garton tomorrow. Unfortunately the bowling I'll actually be up against will he higher in quality

Edit: Wade's an old man I wouldn't miss that

 

[Nintendo]

Wade's not a an australian great by any means but i'll always respect him for what he did late career in the pre cummins captaincy era. Won us a t20 wc, played a huge part in us retaining the ashes in england in 19 and often played for the team (opening vs india at the start of the **** tip era a great example).

 

[Starfighter]

I was just about to post about how terrible Garton is for someone who had definite promise when he first came onto the scene (and bowled considerably quicker than he does now). Oh well, still think he'll go the distance in most games.
