Scorchers probably win this game.

Sam Billings appealing like he was born of the sub continent

It’s not a choke if you’re not up to it.
Hard for the batters on this pitch I’d give them an out tonight.

this was lost in the field.
gave them at least 15 runs from misfields and dropped a few catches.
they should have been chasing so much less.

 

[Coasters7]

Actually a terrible on field call lmao. Hitting in line with middle and leg and didn’t turn back

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Andrews is a gun sort of guy you’d actually weirdly consider for our t20 side- you need a left armer and he’s a decent hitter too

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Missing leg

Nup.

 

[Saints4ever]

Spin was always going to bring the stars undone.
This isn’t a surprise.

How? It’s hitting.

 

[smasha]

We are cursed sigh.
WE are Melbourne though.

Everyone loves to hunt Melbourne down.

 

[Plugger35]

Cartwright needs to get on strike, he is batting with bunnies.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Cartwright's been watching all this from the other end.

 

[Grumpyshades]

scorchers would of made it a better game

[LukeParkerno1]

Peak stars to not even take a surge…

That was the only way we wouldn’t bowl our spinners

 

[Coasters7]

Scorchers probably win this game.

I don’t reckon. We had an identical game a week ago. We’re better than the Thunder on paper imo but would probably struggle on this sort of pitch very regularly

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Are you flipping serious ump

He’s only in by two feet

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Cartwright needs to face every ball from here. Faced one ball and has seen three wickets fall. An early single and could see the last three

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Exactly JB, "Why would you send that up?"

 

[madjoe]

Andrews is a gun sort of guy you’d actually weirdly consider for our t20 side- you need a left armer and he’s a decent hitter too

funny enough should be in the state team ahead of the captain

 

[western royboy]

Nup.

Not plumb either

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Not plumb either

Yes. Clearly out.

 

[IKnowtheDog]

this has become a dynamite pitch for guys useless against spin

 

[Saints4ever]

Sixers and Hurricanes would be sitting back feeling happy about this.
Stars on a good deck would’ve been a massive threat.

 

[Mr Meow]

A ball has barely been hit for 4 overs until that.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Cartwright's only faced 3 balls
