In Sheffield Shield this season, Webster has 3 centuries and 5 fifties, currently averaging 70. Pity they don't select Test teams from Sheffield Shield any more.

Yep, these days they generally pick it from NSW.

Keep on hoping we lose, loser. I was busy helping my side into finals whilst you were sitting on your ass whinging.

 

[Voice of the G]

Maddinson batting well at the moment.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

0/101… Maddo batting well. They are playing in a Gale.

Butch, Benny, WI windbag?

I must say I am really fond of Bellerive. It is just a beaut spot for cricket.

Webster now holds the record for Shield aggregate in a season for a number 6. And is ahead of Bannedcroft and a chance of hitting 1000 runs in a season. As he ages he is becoming Mundy like fine wine.

Vics will win this. Bellerive turns into the flattest deck in Australia after day 2.

 

[eddiesmith]

Vics will win this. Bellerive turns into the flattest deck in Australia after day 2.

But has Victoria even made 400+ in an innings all season?

Literally the last game we played.

Would think 1 of these openers has to make 200 and the rest of the top order support him.Would still favor Tas.at this stage.

 

[ioppolo]

Must be flat as F a r K if Marcus Harris is making runs.

 

[Voice of the G]

A great century by Maddinson,important he stays there.

 

[Gak Attack]

Yeah Vic's going to win you'd think unless the wicket drastically goes to shit.

 

[sherb]

Yeah Vic's going to win you'd think unless the wicket drastically goes to s**t.

The pitch has flattened out, you would think Victoria would do it easily given this start. All they have to do is bat sensibly and take no risks.

 

[sherb]

Jesus no, Pucovski has been hit in the head again.

 

[nobbyiscool]

Fuuuuck. That’s the worst thing that could’ve happened today.

The most worrying thing about it is that he didn’t even tried to evade it, he just wore it.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

It was awful. At least he walked off unassisted.

 

[yabsy]

Jesus no, Pucovski has been hit in the head again.

That's a real concern...Surely there's a limit to how many blows he can take.

It was a decent whack too, he took it flush on the cheek (?)?

He was down for a fair while getting assistance before he eventually walked off.
