Huge game. Winner goes a game clear top of the table.
Cmon the Hurricanes.

 

[NYRB]

A loss for the Canes is not the end of the world in terms of finishing in the Top 2. A Thunder loss hurts their chances much more of finishing in the Top 2.

100% with the weird scheduling to start the tournament the Hurricanes are in a great position with games in hand.

A win tonight almost guarantees top 4.

 

[Saints4ever]

Hurricanes have won the toss and going to have a bowl.

You beauty, ball skids on at night with the dew.

[Cleavy]

how exciting. win the toss and field like 99% of the previous games.

 

[NYRB]

Hasnain replacing Lockie Ferguson. I reckon Hasnain will be rusty first game up. It usually takes the internationals a game or two to fire. Same too for Garton.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Stanlake v Konstas.

The public demands it.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Big Billy nearly hitting 150ks.

 

[Rocco sifreddi]

Too much pace for you little boy.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Pitifull innings from the overated Konstas.

 

[danielnajdek]

4 off 9 for Konstas. Must of been watching how Harper opens in the BBL.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Bloody good take from Wade anyways.

 

[NYRB]

Chris Green is handy with the bat but he is no number 6.

 

[Cleavy]

Chris Green is handy with the bat but he is no number 6.

shouldn't Christian and Garton be batting ahead of him?

 

[Plugger35]

The DJ playing Achy Breaky Heart, is it 1992 down there in Tassie?

 

[pacemaker]

Yeah don't really get the tactics Warner and the Thunder are going with here . Pushing the ball around for singles and 2s to be at 6.5 runs per over after 10.

What now? Go for 10 an over for the back 10?

I'm thinking the ball isn't coming on. A bit on the slow side.

 

[Hamingja]

I know the Afghan spinner left which isn't a huge deal as he was only fair and the Hurricanes have Hatzoglou and Dooley in the squad but has Hope gone too? Charlie Wakim in a T20 is bringing back Dom Michael memories.

150 Par total then?

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Thunder had better get a move on soon.

Dawdling along.

Yep Hope and the Afghan spinner have departed for the ILT20 .

 

[pacemaker]

Probably for the best need billings there to blast some.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Another average knock from Davies.
