Super Smash T20 2023/24

[Plugger35]

Small with his 3rd wicket to have Otago reeling at 120/6, he reminds me of Dan Christian with the grey hair and knack of taking wickets.

Is there any overseas contingent in this tournament mate?

 

[Plugger35]

Otago all out for 136, Ajaz Patel finishing with 4 wickets, like Will Young

None at all, hard for the Super Smash to compete for overseas talent when they are competing against the Big Bash and other T20 comps.

At least some of the Black Caps play more often in this tournament than the Aussie test players play in the Big Bash but it's slim pickings

You can't really count them as overseas signings when they are based in NZ.

You wouldn't count Scott Edwards as an overseas signing for the Renegades.

so are all the women's games played as curtain raisers before the men's games? (Incl the final??)

A couple of womens fixtures were played ahead of the mens this season.

Last season, I covered the SuperSmash for work, they were all double header last year. Not sure about this year.

They are double headers.

But they did switch a fair games with women playing first ahead of men. Most of the games have been women playing first than men in the follow up.

 

[NYRB]

Today is a case in point of men playing at 2PM, and the women playing around 6PM.

Game 20

Teams:

Wellington (Playing XI): Nick Greenwood, Tim Robinson, Nick Kelly(c), Muhammad Abbas, Michael Bracewell, Callum McLachlan(w), Nathan Smith, Logan van Beek, Peter Younghusband, Ian McPeake, Michael Snedden

Canterbury (Playing XI): Chad Bowes, Tom Latham, Henry Nicholls, Cole McConchie(c), Mitchell Hay(w), Michael Rippon, Bevon Jacobs, Zakary Foulkes, Angus McKenzie, Fraser Sheat, William ORourke

Canterbury have won the toss and have opted to field

 

[NYRB]

Winner of Game 20 goes top of the table , so it should be a beauty.

 

[NYRB]

Tim Robinson is under way for Wellington.

 

[NYRB]

Greenwood never looked comfortable out there and he has to go. Firebirds 16/1 off 14 balls.

 

[NYRB]

Fraser Sheat into the attack

 

[NYRB]

Tim Robinson smacks Sheat down the ground for 4. Bit of wind out there in Christchurch today.

 

[NYRB]

Tom Robinson lovely cut for 4 going to the shorter side of the ground according to Mitch Hay.

 

[NYRB]

McMillan says dont take on the wind especially on the larger side of the ground and he is right.

 

[NYRB]

Winds likely to get up to 27 km/hour today in Christchurch according to Timeanddate.com.

 

[NYRB]

Risky shot going against the wind there, but Tim Robinson goes the 1 hander.

 

[NYRB]

Angus McKenzie into the attack for the first time today.

 

[NYRB]

Sheat taking a bit of a pounding today 33/0 off his 3.0 overs. Tim Robinson has taken a liking for him.

 

[Plugger35]

Another good innings from Tim Robinson with 86 off 46 balls, he would have to be on the radar for the Black Caps T20 team.

 

[NYRB]

McKenzie gets 2 wickets in the over and Kings pegging back the Firebirds a bit here.

Abbas and Robinson gone in the same over.

 

[NYRB]

Dutch international Rippon has squeezed well for the Kings with his spinners.

His squeeze helped build pressure on the other end.
