Could Reardon make the World Cup squad? Plays brilliantly as the finisher.

I really wish the commentators would stop talking this ground up. It is too small.
Good facilities and handy for the type of attendance state cricket gets, but the playing surface is unsuited to modern cricket.

edit: Then again, I guess its not much smaller than some venues in some nations. Its good practice for the WC game at Eden Park for example.

Why have we waited for the last 4 overs to get the last over from Christian/Short/Stoinis?

Maybe waiting (hoping) for a wicket or two so it could be bowled with at least one fresh batsman. A risk that maybe won't pay off.

Honestly I would have just bowled the 3 of them in overs 20-30 and gotten it out of the way.

That 6 was amazing.

What a country that we get this in HD but not the AFL GF.

Yep 10 people and a dog at the ground = HD
100,000 people at the ground = 1970's coverage

every 3rd ball they feel the need to remind us that the boundaries aren't very big, but its a picturesques ground & the ground is located in North Sydney

Victorian cricket logic. Your 3 part time bowlers go for 11.6, 8 and 6.5 per over respectively. Who do you bowl the most? The one who goes for 11.6

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Why the heck is Handscomb batting so low

Could've given Keath and White a bowl too.

Or Wade? Can't be any worse than he is as a keeper lol

Clint McKay has really completely disappeared

If Short and Muirhead don't play 10 games between them in the shield this season barring injury I will spew.
