BBL Game 4 Melbourne Renegades v Perth Scorchers 1845hrs @ Kardinia Park

[BACCS]

Why are the Renegades playing any games outside of Marvel?

 

[Shifty1]

Can't wait for Crawley to replace the Nazi

 

[BACCS]

We have 10 days until our next game

Still doesn’t matter, he’s had major workload the last few months and deserves time to get his body absolutely 100%.

 

[cats_09]

Why are the Renegades playing any games outside of Marvel?

Because they have a strong supporter base in Geelong

Plus, it'd be a commercial arrangement

Why are the Renegades playing any games outside of Marvel?

They have played one home game in Geelong for the last few seasons.

 

[NYRB]

Why are the Renegades playing any games outside of Marvel?

They traditionally play a game or two down in Geelong in the BBL.

Why are the Renegades playing any games outside of Marvel?

Been playing a couple of games there for a few years now...good market to tap into if they can build some support I guess

 

[Gough]

Yeah it's a joke that he is getting rested after just one game, it's not like they need to manage his workload like they do for the test bowlers.

If you're going to give him a rest do it on a night like this.

 

[Around the Wicket]

This will be a low scoring one

 

[cats_09]

Biggest frustration watching cricket at KP is the lack of a decent scoreboard that actually has a list of the batsmen & runs scored

All we get is basically the small score line along the bottom of the screen, but it only lists the score, bowler & who's facing - and that's if you can read it

 

[The 747]

Perth Scorchers (Playing XI): Stephen Eskinazi, Cooper Connolly, Aaron Hardie, Josh Inglis(w), Ashton Turner(c), Laurie Evans, Nick Hobson, Jhye Richardson, Andrew Tye, Hamish McKenzie, Jason Behrendorff

Melbourne Renegades (Playing XI): Quinton de Kock, Joe Clarke(w), Jake Fraser-McGurk, Nic Maddinson(c), Aaron Finch, Jonathan Wells, Will Sutherland, Tom Rogers, Kane Richardson, Peter Siddle, Mujeeb Ur Rahman

Melbourne Renegades have won the toss and have opted to field

Jyhe lives! He plays! Maybe even he bowls!

I think it started when the BBL season was extended with the extra home games and they played one or two of those here

This year it's only one due to the reduced home matches, but we've got a decent crowd in and wouldn't suprise me if this isn't our smallest home crowd this season

Theoretically, when this started the west of the state was notionally Renegades territory and the east Stars. Finch being a Colac boy they’ve always played a few games there

130 might be a good score on this pitch

 

[NYRB]

If your Finch , you would be tempted to give Buck Rogers a 3rd consecutive over here.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

It looks like a seamers wicket rather than a spinners wicket which might have played a part in him being rested.

I have Zampa in my BBL SC team though so I wanted him to play.

They did say after the WC and Indian tour all players involved would be on restrictions in games played early on

 

[LukeParkerno1]

If your Finch , you would be tempted to give Buck Rogers a 3rd consecutive over here.

You’d bowl him out imo.

Finch probably would

But will Maddinson?

 

[NYRB]

Finch probably would

But will Maddinson?

I keep thinking Finch is the captain.


Damn that one would have gone through 1st slip.

 

[NYRB]

Perth score of 13/1 is the lowest score in the 4 over Powerplay era at Kardinia Park batting first. Previous lowest was 14 runs.

I didn't realise this was Maddinsons third year as captain - kept thinking last year was his first

We finished last his first year, and weren't going so well prior to his injury last year but they bring him back for a third

Would love to know why

Voges is tough wearing shorts on what is a cool night in Geelong.

Key is only 1 wicket down

 

[eddiesmith]

A few overs into the wet patch and the umpires might deem this too dangerous for play. All turf cricket in Melbourne was washed out yesterday

But we all played today on perfect grounds, a worry if the BBL ground isn’t looked after better than a council owned ground…

 

[LukeParkerno1]

It will be the same for both sides.
