*Official* Big Bash League 2012/13

Yeah Usman is definitely playing. They're not pulling him out of a tour game that he's captaining to run water...

 

[Prince EWS]

That bowling attack could go for millions IMO.

 

[Spikey]

Khawaja is playing isn't he which would mean we should see:

I think Usman will be the reserve. You know, there in case a batsman steps on a football momets before the toss. If all along he was set to play, or first reserve batsman, I doubt the Thunder would have ever allowed him to play in the tour match.

here's something to do during this season's big bash: keep an eye on all the players Darren Berry intends to sign this off-season. A reminder of who they are


Peter Handscomb
James Muirhead
Alex Doolan (too late m8)
Nic Maddinson
Michael Neser
Joe Burns (good luck)

The state of cricket: work to do but new blood coming through

jesus. can you short sell this list?

so some team cant sign someone outside of that supp list? sheet seems silly.

'but this column remains an ardent supporter.' remains a favourite line of mine, btw

along with ' If they don't, I know a team across the border that surely will.' of course

As I said, there's no way in hell Usman isn't playing tomorrow night.

Nannes is a pie slinger now ftr. Will go for 45+ if he bowls his 4.

 

[uvelocity]

so any team can pick anybody on the supp list? clarkeh should pick siddle and tell him its the grand final

I mean, I want Usman to play just because I won't be able to handle all the articles that will be written if he doesn't play, but it really wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't play. I mean, Rogers and Usman in the top 4?!

are we playing at the scg or homebush

 

[Prince EWS]

Yep, agree. And he's probably still their second or third best bowler anyway.

scg.

 

[Spikey]

there's something about Daniel Salpietro being on the Hobart supp list that seems so fitting

so any team can pick anybody on the supp list? clarkeh should pick siddle and tell him its the grand final

yeah, by the rules. not sure if in reality teams will stick only to their own supp lists tho. hope not. they probably won't

 

[Spikey]

really, if stuart clark doesn't get mark higgs over here heads will roll

 

[NUFAN]

actually picking the batting line-up

Haddin
Warner
Maddinson
Smith
Moz
Mendis (PEWS where should Mendis bat)
SOK
Thornely
Lee
Starc
Feldman

If that's the batting order Mendis is at good odds for top scorer, paying $14 behind 10 other players in the squad.

 

[uvelocity]

is there somewhere I can bet on maddinson <4

 

[Prince EWS]

Which agency is that? Bet365 have got him at 7.50.

 

[Spikey]

Judging by his posts today, SportsBet probably

 

[Pup Clarke]

i had tom ****ing cooper in my team. jesus. someone drag me out the back and shoot me plx

Guilty

Thought he'd be batting in the top three for some reason.

Where's Lumb gone lads? Was one of the first names on my teamsheet.

Spikey on the money once again.

I made a good withdrawal from my account recently, so don't have much money to muck around with, but seeing $14 on a batsman who could bat top 6 is great value. Of course O'Keefe could move up the order or something and who from the Thunder is going to be able to take wickets.
