BBL Match 21 Hobart Hurricanes v Sydney Thunder 1530hrs @ Bellerive Oval

[largebus]

Wooden spoon incoming for the Thunder

 

[NYRB]

and now we are into a long middle-to-lower order tail. Sams is handy but he isnt a number 6 bat.

 

[NYRB]

Ross and Sams need to play some sensible cricket till the 14th over or so. Got to go against their instincts of boundaries .

 

[NYRB]

Its fair to say the Thunder havent judged this wicket well. its probably not a 180+, 200+ wicket. Have to reassess now.

 

[NYRB]

Brendon Julian says the Thunder need to get to 150.

 

[NYRB]

I dont agree with BJ alot of times but I think you do need that here in Hobart.

 

[Aussie_boy]

That looked bloody good.

Sams should not be at 6, I'm going to say that every game.

 

[NYRB]

Misfield from Chaudhary, could have been easy run out with a pick up.

 

[NYRB]

Dan Christian wants 160 or 170 from here, with the Thunder 72/4 off 11.1 overs.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Matter of time I think before Dan Christian coaches a BBL side, would be good at the Strikers assuming he hasn't pissed off too many at SACA.

 

[NYRB]

Sams lucky that could have easily landed to the fielder. Thunder need as much luck as they can get right now.

The Brendon Julian drinking game:
Drink anytime he sucks air between his teeth
Drink if he says "ooooooh...", "in the aaaair", or elongates the vowels of any other word
Finish the bottle if he incorrectly calls an outfield catch as a six

I'm surprised Mike Hussey hasn't been given a chance to coach a BBL side.

 

[NYRB]

Power Surge taken by Thunder Balls 73-84

 

[NYRB]

This could be blow or go for the Thunder right here.

 

[largebus]

I'm surprised Mike Hussey hasn't been given a chance to coach a BBL side.

He coaches England T20 and one of The Hundred sides. Also wrote a review saying SA had a culture of mediocrity which put noses out of joint

 

[NYRB]

Average Power Surge at Hobart from 19 games batting 1st here is 22.21 runs.

Thunder would love that right now.

I'm surprised Mike Hussey hasn't been given a chance to coach a BBL side.

Hussey could probably get an IPL gig so BBL might not be as appealing.

At the 10 over mark, BJ gave us a Dwayneism by saying "if you've just joined us".

 

[NYRB]

Thunder dreaming of 22-23 runs right now in the Power Surge with the departure of Ross , they probably have to go back to rebuild mode in this Power Surge.

 

[NYRB]

The games complexion can change so quickly with a Power Surge overs.

 

[NYRB]

Daniel Sams mind will probably be crossed between two minds in the Power Surge, go gung-ho and just look to get through it.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Lol Wadey ahaha

Ok camera a bit decieivng but still could've had Sams out if he turned around.

 

[NYRB]

Not the smartest shot from Daniel Sams there. And he is rightfully livid with himself.

 

[NYRB]

Wow another life for Sams, a no-ball wicket from the Canes.
