BBL06, Match 24; Renegades vs Hurricanes @ Etihad

[ioppolo]

A must win for both teams here. Team news I hear is that Lawford and Beaton dropped for Harris and Rimmington. Damn Beaton, you unlucky son.

Ben McDermott should keep his place ahead of Kumar Sangakkara for the Hurricanes.

Bold Finch prediction, Tom Cooper to open the bowling, Narine to open the batting!!!

 

[HBF]

Last chance saloon for both teams.

 

[grimlock]

Lawford was already dropped. Tremain is actually out

[Hamingja]

Hurricanes are awful against spin so v Narine and Hogg hard to see them posting a winnable total.

 

[HBF]

Hurricanes had to drop Tait. He's been a liability all season.

 

[Ronnie Baby]

Ben McDermott should keep his place ahead of Kumar Sangakkara for the Hurricanes.

I never would have imagined reading that sentence at the start of the season

And agreeing with it too

 

[Jeremias]

Must win for the Renegades. Absolutely cannot afford to drop this one.

Kind of glad Finch was dropped from the ODI squad - he's so important for us.

 

[eth-dog]

Canes.

 

[Underarm]

Hurricanes had to drop Tait. He's been a liability all decade.

FTFY

 

[ioppolo]

Harsh on my boy Clive to be dropped.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

He's...in the Hurricanes
His left armers are a pain
It's Clive, the slightly near-sighted cricketer!

Last chance saloon for both teams.

Hurricanes are done. Will they drag the gades down with them too?

Hurricanes are done. Will they drag the gades down with them too?

Today we have the Red Wiggles vs the Purple Wiggles.

 

[Ronnie Baby]

Today we have the Red Wiggles vs the Purple Wiggles.

Hopefully the Purple ones wake up

 

[HBF]

A bit meh about this game, but will still watch anyway.

 

[eddiesmith]

Go Gades!

Batting first which is good, think Doherty is in for Tremain, probably not a bad idea, if none of the pace bowlers are any good then just pick spinners!

 

[Hamingja]

Hurricanes are awful against spin so v Narine and Hogg hard to see them posting a winnable total.

+ Doherty!

Though with Patto only makes it interesting who they decide to bowl at the death.

 

[Hamingja]

Oh and I really like Jake Reed as a T20 bowler. With Tait cooked good decision to play him.

 

[PoopingHindi]

just hoping we can get through 20 overs without any horrendous * ups from Nevill

...that way we're at least a 50/50 chance

 

[HBF]

Just hoping for a good game.

 

[HBF]

Good on ya Jasper.

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

Jasper's gonna be hoping that bit of footage won't surface ever again.

 

[RickSanchez]

Narine not opening the batting, game over.

 

[HBF]

Thats a pink shirt Flem.

 

[Millky95]

Come on Gades
