BBL Match 32 Melbourne Renegades v Melbourne Stars 12/1 1845hrs @ Docklands Stadium

[Plugger35]

That ball from Siddle was too good for everyone.

 

[Burtonsgottago]

That is the worst 2 wicket over you will ever see, 2 dud balls for wickets and 4 wides.

Peak BBL

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Least Harper can keep right?

Useless spud

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Basically nothing in the powerplay given by the stars except extras.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Can’t bat, can’t backstop.

 

[smasha]

Siddle looks like a old man now

Still a wily bowler.

 

[Gift]

Wow that took off! Harper can't even do his primary job lol

Why have short wicket keepers when that can happen...

 

[Blackhawk42]

Why do the Reneagdes rarely use the opening 4 over powerplay?

In hilarious fashion, of course the first boundary comes up on the first ball of the 5th over.

Throw the gloves to Webster and see how he goes?

 

[ptrg]

Mir was SURELY spot fixing there by letting that trickle over the boundary...

Looked so guilty when his mate asked him, not gonna stop it?

 

[Black Diamond]

I reckon it's fair enough, when a batsman tries this on.

But so what? The batsmen completed one run, they get one run. Why should it even be a penalty?

 

[Around the Wicket]

JFM bat sounds so bad, nothing off the middle

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Bang! Stars right in this now.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Peak Gades

 

[smasha]

Game on!

 

[Stig O'Hara]

You’re better than that Bethell.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Seifert might have to do a Maxwell for them here.

 

[Plugger35]

Awful shot from Bethell too, Stars raging favourites now.

 

[Around the Wicket]

But so what? The batsmen completed one run, they get one run. Why should it even be a penalty?

Because it’s cheating to get the man on strike you want on strike without attempting to complete the run.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Gades losing 3 and JFM isn’t one of them…

What’s this a full moon or something?

 

[Bradesmaen]

You’re better than that Bethell.

Is he? He's only 21, but his record does not say that so far. Mitch Marsh vibes about him, highly rated, overrated.

 

[cats_09]

In hilarious fashion, of course the first boundary comes up on the first ball of the 5th over.

We play one of two ways

Either try to hit every ball for 6, playing all out attack

Or play ultra conservatively, but that then brings wickets when trying to chase things

 

[Aussie pie]

And he’s Englands number 3 for test cricket

 

[Around the Wicket]

JFM fluke big score required

 

[H00t]

This BBL has really showcased the inflexibility of a lot of our batters.

Nearly every game the ball does a heap in the first ten then does very little in the back 10 and teams have put a lot of runs on in the back 10 even after losing a lot of wickets in first 10.

Teams are still going super hard in the first 10 and losing a ton of wickets though which limits their ability to make the most of the conditions in the back 10.
