Very unlucky for the Heat that Australia released Swepson from the Ashes squad…

 

[NYRB]

That Brisbane Heat effort was on poor with the England Test team effort in the 5th test.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Brisbane and Renegades out of contention.

I thoroughly enjoy seeing the Heat get smashed

Lehmann is a cancer

Maybe its just me but in the short form of the game, his never really struck me as a tactically great T20 coach when managing the teams.

I mean he had a decent career but do feel that he is living on reputation.

The order of difficulty of catches

Abbott> Fraser-McGurk> Maxwell


Abbott had far less reaction time than all 3

Fraser McGurk for me

 

[NYRB]

Fraser McGurk for me

Yep in terms of spectacular:

McGurk> Abbott> Maxwell

In terms of difficulty:

Abbott> McGurk> Maxwell


can make a case for either Abbott or Fraser-McGurk for catch of the season for me.

I rank Abbotts catch harder due to the time he had to react, probably talking 0.4-0.5 second.

McGurks was difficult due to the height he had to reach especially on the boundary.
