I take it Sam Konstas is out of tonight's game since being put into the test squad?

[010203]

I picked the Thunder, going for the perceived upset.

 

[Plugger35]

Hopefully Konstas plays another great knock, I've given him a start in my BBL SC team so that will probably destroy his form.

 

[010203]

Konstas gone for a globe

 

[Plugger35]

Right on cue he goes for a duck.

 

[NYRB]

Feels a bit weird seeing Bancroft and Warner bat together again. Not sure if there is a love relationship there.

 

[danielnajdek]

Well that was bound to happen with how much hype he has been getting.

 

[NYRB]

Quite nice to see a cricket match played at a ground where cattle are allowed to graze on the outfield....

 

[NYRB]

6 then out for Davey Warner.

 

[010203]

The Sydney Smash could be a Sydney Fizzer.

 

[NYRB]

Joel Davies v Ollie Davies, battle of the brothers tonight.

 

[Plugger35]

This is embarrassing for the Thunder with both Konstas and Warner getting out before Bancroft, they are still the Sixers bitches.

 

[NYRB]

Joel Davies bowling to Ollie Davies is what the neutrals want.

 

[Chuckie357]

Howard in in the Guinness book for world longest tongue right?

 

[010203]

Howie "Thanks skipper". Just say "thanks Moises".

[Plugger35]

Todd Murphy getting the Lloyd Pope treatment, 3 sixes in a row from Ollie Davies.

 

[MisterMarcus]

How long till people start demanding Davies in the test team on the back of a few BBL big hits?

 

[010203]

That over has ****ed Harry Potter's economy rate.

How long till people start demanding Davies in the test team on the back of a few BBL big hits?

Averaging 33 in the Shield this season...Just about good enough

This ground is a cow paddock. Always looks awful.

They have brought in the boundary ropes tonight at the Showgrounds.
