I've obviously seen next to nothing of Sodhi but do you reckon he's good enough for first class cricket right away next season? He's obviously better then the two young guys we used last season but does he have to game right now to come in and do well?
Yeah I do. I don't think ND would be luring him down and contracting him ahead of other bowlers who have debuted down there if they didn't think so either.
He's got more tools in his bag than Nethula does. He doesn't turn it as much as Astle but has far more control. With the sort of seam bowling line-up ND regularly puts out, and one that keeps RPO low, he'll be more than handy. If they can wheel out a bit of bounce at Seddon Park he'll take a lot of wickets. Big tall guy whose wrong-un is well disguised as well. Plus will sell his wicket at a high price down the order, and a hitter to boot. Think he's a bit of a draught horse in the field but hey, no one's perfect.

Thanks mate. Buchanan hasn't done much of note. Not sure of where he bats for Vic, but he looks more of a middle order bat.

Vic U/19s I think that he opened or batted at 3. Opened in a T20 last year for the Renegades.
He's a bit like his brother Liam, has his own very individual style that isn't probably textbook, but he can do some ridiculous things and it probably won't . Is better prepared for professional cricket than Liam as well.

Knew he played a BBL game last season, but had forgotten he opened. I guess he's just gotten out too quickly in this tournament for me to judge him properly.
I've mainly just watched Australia bat so not sure on the bowlers. The captain Bosisto has looked compact and assured in each innings so you would think he'd potentially do well in first class matches.
Bancroft and Head look like they could have long domestic careers too. Its too early for me to say whether any of them are likely Aussie players in the future tho.

Reckon you might have seen some of his better work.
Getting a little tense this game, one of the batsman need to up the tempo slightly.
