Expect us to roll around using that for the most part

& expect young bowlers to come in for resting quicks once the SS starts.

 

[NYRB]

As an Adelaide supporter it definitely feels the gap is closing. True, that is mostly from Melbourne and the likes but the competition is getting better.

Just feel the depth isnt there for 18 teams. Some results are a foregone conclusion before a game starts.

Hence why the Marsh Cup is the ice-breaker for me on a Sunday arvo.

 

[Torz]

WA win the toss and elect to field first.

Bit disappointed that we haven’t used this as an opportunity to debut Haskett, instead electing to stick with an average journeyman like Gannon.

 

[ioppolo]

That's a seriously good bowling lineup for the Bulls.

 

[NYRB]

Playing XIs:

 

[NYRB]

Overcast conditions here today.

 

[NYRB]

Ben McDermott has looked like he has a put pounds on this summer.

 

[NYRB]

McDermott gets away with a sneaky boundary, just past 3rd slip by a whisker

 

[NYRB]

Stuart Clark reckons there is a bit of life in this wicket.

 

[Torz]

McDermott almost out twice and the over still goes for 11.

 

[NYRB]

Very quick ground here at Allan Border Field.

 

[NYRB]

Dont bowl to the pads of Ben McDermott or you will get punished with the field up.

 

[Torz]

WA have bowled really poorly up front.

 

[Tugga27]

Why isn't Aaron Hardie playing?

 

[Torz]

Why isn't Aaron Hardie playing?

He’s in India.

 

[candyapple]

Worst way to get out

 

[Cleavy]

The numbers are too large and the names too small on the uniforms.

 

[NYRB]

QLD post 238 in the first game and WA chase to come.

 

[NYRB]

I see D'Arcy Short is continuing on his form from last years BBL.........

 

[NYRB]

Phillipe 50 off 59 balls and he continues on his form from last years Marsh Cup.

 

[NYRB]

Sam Whiteman brings up his 50 off 48 balls in Game 1 against QLD

Wicket keeper batsman have always seemed to do well under the WA set up.

 

[NYRB]

reverse scoop off the pads from White (Stuart Clark calls it the 'lap ramp or whatever you call it these days') for 6

 

[NYRB]

Neser is going for a bit today 46/0 off 5.3 overs

 

[NYRB]

Western Australia a chance now of getting the Bonus Point if they chase it inside 40 overs.

Equation is: WA need 104 runs off 107 balls to get the Bonus Point with 7 wickets in hand.


Going to be tight!

Sam Whiteman brings up his 50 off 48 balls in Game 1 against QLD

Wicket keeper batsman have always seemed to do well under the WA set up.

You jinxed him.

WA should still win this pretty comfortably even with him gone though.
