Klinger, what a legend. I don't mind South Australia piling on the runs when it's Klinger doing the scoring. Has looked at ease all innings, top knock thus far. Possibly a chance for a double if South Australia bat for much longer.

Cameron White is bowling roughly 80% wrong-uns compared to 20% leg-breaks. Interesting strategy, did have O'Brien bowled around his legs.

Should push hard for the 200, get out or get the runs, and try and get a few overs at Vic before stumps.

 

[Oscillatingmind]

Brilliant stuff from S.A after tea scored around 7 an over, Klingers gotten his 200, now time to get a couple of wickets. run a ball 44 from Christian AWESOME

His wrongun is the best part about his spin bowling, he probably gets more turn with it too

Nah, but in the future he could be in the running for the national team, his bowling looks pretty good, big swinger of the ball and swings it both ways, dosen't bowl that fast but bowls a pretty good line and he is a big fella so might get some bounce in some pitches.

Hasting's is an all rounder but he hasn't really showed what he can do with the bat yet, if he starts scoring aswell as taking wickets then he could be a real prospect IMO.

Yea hes going great guns with his bowling. A bit disappointed that his batting hasn't come on as I thought it would.

 

[Noble One]

What a top day of cricket (and more to come).

Ed Cowan has almost taken Tasmania to one of the greatest run-chases in Shield history. Bravo for captains who force a result, great stuff.

 

[Oscillatingmind]

last ball of the day, scores tied, Dorey out on a stretcher trying to save a boundary, epic. Second that, Bailey and Voges have done well, both have given there team a real shot at victory.

 

[NUFAN]

Tassie with the win by a wicket! Awesome stuff! Ed Cowan in the runs again is awesome, great move by him going to Tassie.

Klinger, great stuff, love seeing anyone score runs against the Vics nowadays. Why did the Patterson brothers bowl so little?

NSW 5/299 - the 4 best batsman all passing 50. If it's not rainy in the morning, I'll probably head down to watch Khawaja.

 

[Burgey]

Can someone post stumps scores please?

 

[andyc]

Can someone post stumps scores please?

If it was anyone else...

SA 6/517d, Vic 1/35

WA 8/442d & 4/201 d, Tas 5/296 d and 9/351 (won by one wicket)

NSW 5/299 (Jaques 56, Henriques 65, Hughes 75, Khawaja 78*)

 

[Sylvester]

Good day for NSW, hopefully Smith is able to get some batting time.
That WA v Tas match was awesome.

 

[NZTailender]

How do you feel, Adam Vogeeeeeessss

 

[Nate]

Steve Smith is in some form. Top partnership this.

Steve Smith is in some form. Top partnership this.

Guaranteed to be playing ODI and T20 cricket for Australia this summer. Has hardly had a game in any format this season without having a major input with bat or ball, really impressive.

Pretty dissapointing returns from Harris and Hopes. Possibly still underdone from injury? Interested to hear from any ground-reports on how they are bowling. Hopefully NUFAN can provide some information if he made it to the game today.

 

[stephen]

Yeah seriously impressed by Steve Smith. I agree that he's a dead certainty for the coloured clothing games. I think though that the selectors will want to see a bit more from him before they consider replacing anyone in the test side though.

 

[Spikey]

Khawaja in for boxing day yeah?

 

[andyc]

Yeah, he's been impressing all summer. Maiden FC century as well.

 

[morgieb]

Two words. Holy ****! Not only do Khawaja and Smith smack them around the park, but Starc cleans up Queensland's top order! Three words - watch out non-NSWmen.

 

[morgieb]

Oh, and I call anti-NSW bull**** if Smith isn't picked for Australia in OD cricket this summer. Or just plain call for the axing of the selectors.
