2024–25 Australian Domestic Season

[Qlder]

SA vs Qld called off with 43 overs left to bowl in the day. Since when have they been able to do that as I thought it was only in the last hour you can agree to end game?

(makes sense to end game, just didn't know they could)

 

[Qlder]

WA going for it. Need 235 off 47 overs so exactly 5 runs per over. Let's see if Connolly can live up to all the hype

Edit: Connolly 9 off 33 is not helping

 

[Burgey]

I think WA needed Turner to go big if they wre going to chase this down, but see what happens after tea. Connolly seemingly playing for a draw thus far.

 

[Qlder]

Tough comp this Shield is. If WA win they play in the Shield final, if they lose they get the wooden spoon

Crazy to think how different things could have been from this game.

Yep, Tas 3 runs from being in the Shield final (and they lost because of a run out)

 

[Qlder]

Joel Paris must be one of the most unlucky cricketers ever to not play for Australia. A bowling average under 20 and a really good lower order bat

And he gets out as I type, a well played 45

Mate the match run rate is 2.64 over 3 innings. To set 382 in 84 overs @ 4.55 is asking a bit much

You understand both teams need a win right? No point playing for a draw unless there is absolutely no chance

Yeah, turned out to be a perfectly timed declaration although only 3 overs left when last wkt fell

Congrats Qld to be in the Shield final.

Now all we need is for Khawaja to decide it's worth playing a game and for SA to do something about the road of a pitch at Karen Rolton Oval

 

[Burgey]

lol Victoria finished last,. Even behind Spud South Wales.

If the final is a draw the winner will be chosen by most bonus points in the match.

Vics finished 3rd ahead of NSW in 4th,
with Tas 5th and WA last

Haha Vics suck at bonus points as they have 4 wins to Qld's 3 but are 0.27 points behind. That means if they scored only 28 more runs in just one of their 10 first innings of bonus points they'd be in the final

 

[271 & 16/166]

lol Victoria finished last,. Even behind Spud South Wales.

Where you getting this info?? Finished third with most wins behind SA

 

[Burgey]

Was on the CA site a while ago. Maybe hadn't updated tonight's result tbf.

 

[Qlder]

Yeah it updated about 10 minutes after your post (I thought it funny it showed game completed but didn't give Vics 6 points for the win)

Most 4s hit

Is there another F1 race that Uzi has to attend that coincides with the final?

 

[Qlder]

If the final is a draw the winner will be chosen by most bonus points in the match.

Hmmm, this game SA made 4/415 after 100 overs while Qld made 7/356. That means SA would have won the Shield with this boring game as they got 2.85 bonus points to Qld's 1.96

Khawaja upset by Queensland Cricket claims, in doubt for Shield final

Usman Khawaja has been left upset by suggestions from Queensland Cricket’s boss that the state had no idea of his injury issues and that he didn’t want to play in the state’s last Sheffield Shield game.

Queensland disrespecting our greatest test opener, what a disgrace they are
