how on earth does abbott keep getting near the test team?

hes nearly 33, played shield cricket for 13 years and averages 30 with the ball. surely we can do better

Which state does he play for? (he asks rhetorically)

 

[Torz]

He nearly died giving a high five, I think it's a very odd selection. Obviously love him as a player and want him fit and firing.

Maybe Torz can shed some light?

He’s in good nick. Shoulder has no impact on his bowling, he has been bowling continuously for the last 9+ months and is raring to go. Just been kept on a short leash by CA.

Also can you confirm you deliver a good Sweet Chin Music Torz ?

Easy 3 count

At last some common sense from the selectors but it should have been khwaja for konstas, Mcsweeney should have stayed in for the rest of the series

 

[WA footy mad]

Abbot would be a huge backward step surely not

 

[FKASC]

Damn, would rather him play for the scorchdogs than sit on the pine in Melbourne

 

[Tugga27]

The big question for me, is will Inglis and Jhye be allowed to play for the Scorchers on Saturday not that Konsta is being allowed to play?

Yes. I would say Monday’s game is less likely though.

 

[KBLT]

Five quicks, wonder if one of Cummins, Starc, or Boland are in some doubt?

Abbott to replace Marsh could also be a sneaky chance

Replacing a batter with a bowling all rounder would be a bad move for a team with already weak batting. Surely has to be Webster if Marsh was dropped.

 

[squashface]

Given Marsh isn’t even bowling, why not just replace him with Inglis?

 

[Coasters7]

Yes. I would say Monday’s game is less likely though.

Still can’t get my head around Richo getting a nod to bowl in the nets and warm the pine rather than bowl some nice short spells in the BBL. No chance he’s next in line with the minimal cricket he’s played lately so why pick him at all?

Can understand Inglis missing Scorchers games as the reserve batsmen but Richardson should be playing every BBL game he can this summer.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Boundary first ball, lazy shot gets him out second ball. Just like his debut.

Pretty poor start by Finn Allen.

 

[squashface]

Ffs

 

[FKASC]

Jesus Christ Allen.

 

[Ochre]

Impressive level of consistency by Allen. Always hard to do playing that type of role

 

[Carbine Chaos]

'Best catch in the Big Bash so far'

I mean sure, if you ignore Duckett's in the previous game...

Fitting call for whatever the opposite of Fox's A team is

 

[squashface]

Some serious shithousery from Turner to Inglis there. He was rightfully fuming.

They let this innings get away from them after they had a good hold of the game. Powerplay was real poor and then that topped it off

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Hobgod should’ve come in before Hurst.

 

[Rowan18]

Hurst is killing us. Get a boundary or get out.

 

[FKASC]

Hobgod should’ve come in before Hurst.

They always have to try justify their shit drafting of internationals

 

[RookiePick]

Scorchies choke job here
