Sheffield Shield Round 10: Western Australia v NSW @ WACA

[grimlock]

Getting desperate now, take the new ball, then bowl this guy who according to CA "Does Not Bowl"

 

[Admiral Byng]

I can sort of see both sides of the argument here. But surely there's a ground somewhere within Victoria that can host it?

Nope. There is a reason Victoria have played their recent 'home' matches in Alice Springs

Can Bancroft score a 200 before the match is called off?

Surprised Henriques has only bowled one over?

 

[Phone]

not really. it's a surprise nsw did the "pick henriques as a batsman" thing and he actually scored runs though. before this game he'd have a horrific batting average in games where he couldn't really bowl

big ben's 4/13 against victoria is the stuff of legends tbh. ca should be ashamed of themselves

 

[The Speaker]

well Klinger was due his double century for the season

Must be saving it for the final.

 

[grimlock]

Getting funnier by the minute. Looking at the stream, looks like a leggie's action but it's definitely off-spin.

When was the last time an Australian batsman faced 500 balls in an innings?

When was the last time an Australian batsman under the age of 25 faced 500 balls?

 

[grimlock]

I was going to suggest the two captains agree to call off the match after Bancroft reaches his 200, but then I realised you'd only save about 10 minutes anyway. #notbitter #letsseeyoutrythisnextweek

Call it off before Dougeh bowls again so he can walk away with an average of 30 for the match

First Class, Liam Davis in 2012

Can't find anyone before this in First Class using available stats

 

[MisterMarcus]

LOL, after stodging around for 550-odd balls, Bancroft brings up his century with a down-the-track six.....

And just to rub it in he gets it with a six. 2cool

Well done Bancroft

How far is Voges from breaking Rogers' record of 1203 runs in a season?

He broke it in this innings.

[The Speaker]

Voges is currently eighth for most runs in a Shield season. He should overtake Jones, Ponsford and possibly Bevan and Yallop in this match.

Why continue this?

Why continue this?

In the hope Shaun Marsh twinges a hamstring...

 

[1990crow]

Bancroft on the move.. I have plenty of time for this guy.

Well someone has to keep Cameron Shite company on the sidelines.
