Banter The No Dazzlering Big Cricket Thread

[RookiePick]

Fair effort

Particularly when we’ve rarely been the most talented squad more often than not. Certainly haven’t had the high profile overseas players other sides have chased

Team of the common folk.

Where blokes like the HOBGOD can be stars.

Yeah but had some pretty bloody elite bowlers, most of which havent been in the test side.

Key to BBL is having a consistent squad of mostly Australia A players

 

[FKASC]

Connolly feels like he has made a big step forward.

Hardie on the other hand… can’t remember the last good match he played

Hardie had one really good season with the bat in the BBL where everything clicked - he looks like he’s batting as if it’s still automatically clicking, assuming he can just hit sixes at will. Needs to go back to playing balls on their merit

Strikers are the perpetual gift-givers to out of form players like Allen. Now only 1 win from their last 9 NYE matches despite it being their biggest home match every season.

Was that one the Travis Head extravaganza match?

 

[Doashuey]

If he gets a game he would no doubt be an improvement on the current version of Bison.

I have high standards when it comes to the all-rounder slot. I basically want the next Kallis or Sobers. But I'd settle for a Flintoff or a Botham.

I'd settle for 20 runs and a wicket per innings at this rate.

 

[Westend]

amazed allen scored runs

good win lads

 

[FKASC]

This hurricanes tail

 

[WA footy mad]

What do we do about tyes bowling was terrible, do we drop him for another batter as we have plenty of bowling options

 

[Keys]

That was unbelievable from Maxwell

No right whatsoever to take that catch

 

[DanWCE]

Unreal catch!

 

[Ochre]

Only mistake was he made it look far easier than it actually was. Ridiculous catch.

Haha

Mark Howard just said exactly this

 

[Lazzas]

Been some good catches, that was unreal especially at full pace.

The AJ Tye one was a good catch new years eve. Not as good as Maxwell's though.

 

[squashface]

Haha

Have you ever seen Ochre and Howie in the same room?

 

[Ochre]

Howie steals all my best work. I've been pushing for a Boland statue since 2014

 

[FKASC]

The catching has been the best part of this BBL to be honest. Been a lot of average batting that’s for sure

 

[Tugga27]

Dan Lawrence has been an excellent replacement for Curran.

Slightly surprised he hadn't been signed TBH.

 

[kane249]

Good news is the Scorchers just got a boost
Bad news is Bison just got dropped (although it was deserved)

 

[WA footy mad]

Marsh in for tye

 

[ioppolo]

Marsh in for tye

Or Hurst

 

[Tugga27]

Or Hurst

Who keeps though?

 

[Dazzler9]

It had to be done. That'll be that, for Marsh at Test level I assume

 

[ioppolo]

Who keeps though?

Finn Allen. Has kept about as much as Bancroft. Has a T20 stumping to his name.

 

[Tugga27]

Finn Allen. Has kept about as much as Bancroft. Has a T20 stumping to his name.

That's a good call.

What's the betting Marsh and Ricjo are held over as the concussions subs.
