Ah forgot Monday was a holiday. CA avoiding Aus day and all that

For better or worse, yep. That's what they're doing.

Politics aside, I don't disagree with avoiding the AO.

Ingredients for a successfully 20 over side.

Get off to a flyer in the opening 4 overs.
Mitch Owen has this covered.

Consolidate through the middle with ability to score quickly and power hit if needed.
McDermott
Wade
Chaudharry
Have this covered.

Go hard in the power surge and back end
Tim David has this covered.

An opening Bowler that can intimidate and bowl high 140s to 150.
Riley Meredith has this covered.

Power surge and death bowlers
Nathan Ellis
Chris Jordan
Have this covered.

Spinning option through the middle
Hatzoglu
Chaudharry
2 adequate options a top quality spinner probably only the missing link.

If all players do there job and play there role the Hurricanes will be 2025 big bash champions.

Think the Canes have been a bit underrated this season.
 
Not a bad effort by the Sixers to still be in with a chance (however slight) of winning in the final few overs after such a terrible start, but without Vince and Smith they are awfully light at the top of the innings.

I can't see them winning from here, but I won't be surprised if they do, they have an amazing ability to fightback when everything looks hopeless.

I think they are a good batsman, wicket taking new ball bowler to pair with Meredith, and a good spinner short. That is the big bash though. Hopefully they can keep it taped together for the final. Hobart need to win one of these before they lose David.
 
Great win last night and great atmosphere at the ground.
Hobart have dominated the power plays/surge in both batting and bowling like no one else this year. Our 1st 4 overs in every game have been brutal. Without going through all of it, I'd say all teams lost at least x2 wickets and made on average <6 an over, while Hobart averaged 40+ with 0 or 1 wickets conceded. It's a 15 advantage 4 overs in. The Surge has obviously been dominated by David. I'd say Hobart averaged 35+ across all wins this year in the two overs, again while only conceding 20-25 Max. That's another 15 runs. Hobart is usually 30+ runs to the good from 6 overs if play. It takes a Maxwell type player/innings to get that back.
