A BBL tatt jeezus that's next level cringe

Should’ve asked him why he didn’t get the first cup win tattooed

 

[Chuckie357]

Botha the Strikers champion

Wonder if he still lives in Adelaide

 

[Moonwatcher]

Wasn’t he captain one year?

If I can't remember if he played I sure as hell can't remember if he were captain

 

[Chuckie357]

Wasn’t he captain one year?

Almost a decade

 

[Chuckie357]

Martin goes without firing a shot.

Standard isn’t it

 

[Moonwatcher]

Wonder if he still lives in Adelaide

Probably not suspect he was waiting to move as soon as his immigration requirements elapsed which would be 10 years

 

[Some Idiot]

Enjoying the Lloyd Pope comeback arc

 

[Chuckie357]

Why does he think he is a genuine spinner? Too tall to be a spinner

Your bowling arm is generally a tad higher when bowling a googly, which is pretty much 75% of the balls Pope bowls. Boyce mainly bowls back-spinning skidders. Richie Benaud did a leg spin tutorial as part of the MCC master-class series I think in 1994 out the back of Lord's. Richie was very strong on the idea bowlers were side on in their action. Pope looks very front on.

Absolutely but his is too high I would say although it's not doing him much harm and as we know, you don't have to be textbook to succeed at the professional level.

Have you seen all of the videos? Bishen Bedi did one for left-arm spin and Ray Illingworth for off spin. Neither were too impressed with the MCC bowlers they were working with.

With my bowling, I tried so much to be side on that I crossed myself and my arm was coming over the top of my head so almost no pace at all was being generated. After a few sessions with Callum Stow (Geelong,Cricket Victoria,Renegades), I've pretty much ironed that out now and am bowling much better but still can't get a bowl in my team in GCA4

 

[NYRB]

BJ saying its a 'disconnected Power Surge'

Have to tell the umpire before the end of the over.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

If I can't remember if he played I sure as hell can't remember if he were captain

Looked it up.

Was captain for 3 years!!!

So many memories.

 

[10Dulkar]

Botha's action would certainly be a hot topic of discussion on the board nowadays.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Big Paul looks like he hasn’t picked up a bat in a year

 

[NYRB]

Need to tell the umpire as soon as the last ball is bowled, before calling a Power Surge. You cant meander and think twice and have a chat about it.

Thats why the Surge wasnt implemented at the start of the 14th over.

 

[Redline]

Scott has improved his bowling.

Makes sense as the fielding team needs time to set up.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Paul it’s white and it’s round mate

 

[Moonwatcher]

He did hit the stumps with his leg.

 

[Chuckie357]

Overton could’ve kicked it the rope then

 

[NYRB]

I dont think McSweeney can slog it guys. Takes a while to come from the Test format to the T20 format to come out and just go she-bang!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

lol Chris Martin like batting

 

[LukeParkerno1]

He hit one lol

 

[Moonwatcher]

RRR 11 with Sydney going at 7.2 an over

 

[Chuckie357]

Why did channel 7 cut to the umpire signaling a no ball then 4?

 

[Moonwatcher]

10 runs with 4 power surge balls remaining.
