Huge game. Renegades win and the four is all but locked.

 

[ioppolo]

Another lacklustre season from the Hurricanes could be over tonight.

 

[THE A5]

Gee thats a long tail for the Renegades? Isn’t kellapotha a number 11? Thats so dire for his side if he’s coming in at 7

It comes as no surprise but Aaron Finch will retire from professional cricket at the end of the Renegades BBL campaign. What a career he's has in white ball cricket and he's top man too. A career in the commentary box awaits where his astute insights will be welcome.

I can see him also moving into coaching at some stage also

He has a first class century, to go with two 50s - he doesn't seem to have batted as often in the shorter formats so harder to get a read on his form in limited overs

 

[NYRB]

Big game for the Gades today. A lost and its all over #BBL13. Wont be able to make the Finals with a loss today. And a win for the Canes means they are in the conversation for Finals.

 

[NYRB]

Average Powerplay score in the first 4 overs at the Docklands Stadium from 23 games is 27.00 runs batting 1st.

Do the Renegades come out like a house on fire today? Probably need a good start against a Hobart team getting a bit of momentum as the season has gone on.

No Wade today too.

 

[cats_09]

Marsh back up to opener tonight

Wonder if they gave thought to opening with JFM

 

[NYRB]

The equation is simple for Renegades, win all 3 remaining regular season games to keep their Finals hopes alive. Also need favours from others teams in not allowing: Sixers, Stars and Perth to drop games in the run home.

 

[NYRB]

Wow Tim David with a wicket maiden 1st over.

Who would have thought that?

 

[Fabab]

Wicket maiden for david,is this the end for marsh?

 

[candyapple]

Great start

Hell has frozen over

 

[cats_09]

Wow Tim David with a wicket maiden 1st over.

Who would have thought that?

It is against us

We're pretty s**t to start our batting innings - I'm curious how often we've lost a wicket in the first over this season, or one of the openers being out for a duck

We really should open with JFM - at least that way he's in without the loss of an early wicket

 

[candyapple]

Have to give him another over after that

 

[candyapple]

De Kock hit in De Nuts

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Gades are Gades-ing already

 

[Reign Man]

De utensil jokes incoming

 

[cats_09]

Wicket maiden for david,is this the end for marsh?

The crazy thing is that him coming in at 4 was working in his first couple of matches back this season when he scored back to back 50s

Seemed an unnecessary change moving him to opener

 

[010203]

Quinton De Kock has finally scored a run at Marvel Stadium.

 

[NYRB]

Ellis is being aggressive, a 1st slip for Fraser-McGurk.
