    Adelaide Oval after the ACDC concert

    Unfortunately for the Etihad crew, their management call the shots on the budget for turf replacement etc. Lighting obviously a massive issue there. Adelaide Oval should be right but I doubt the surface will look flush due to the returfed areas etc. Surprised they didn't go to eclipsed turf when...

    Redbacks 2018/19

    Drennan is 25, his batting lets him down, is a strong gloveman. Weathers is 21 and has been keeping for about eight months, batting wise is a jet.

    This could be reminiscent of when they got bowled out for 20 in the early 2000's.

    The funny thing was Lawford was 3rd or 4th in the averages for SA last year.

    Honestly don't see too many changes from their Matador team to Sheffield Shield. Andrews more likely to be 12th man than anyone.

    Who is the next keeper in line after Ludeman? Nielsen keeping is average and his batting would be at best on par with Ludeman.

    Matador BBQs One Day Cup - 5-25 October 2015

    You're kidding right? In the last six shield seasons they've collected the wooden spoon five times. Spoons in the last two Matador Cups and have been bottom four for all but the last BBL as the Strikers.

    Matador BBQs One Day Cup - 5-25 October 2015

    I've got it as 226. Though this includes recently completed matches. Aggregate for a CA XI match is 404 runs, average of 202 would bring that 226 down a few runs.

    Recently listening to him speak about it at a coaches meeting, he was all about getting all good young talent playing together because that's the only way they get better and then cited that if you haven't played your first Shield match by the time you're 21 (might be 23) you're basically no...

    Matador BBQs One Day Cup - 5-25 October 2015

    300 has been the expected par score for international one day teams since Sri Lanka changed the game in the mid 90's. So it's been the expectation now for almost 20 years and you are still behind the times. If anything is to attribute to the rise in stroke play it is the advent of T20 cricket...

    Matador BBQs One Day Cup - 5-25 October 2015

    Out of the 23 matches that occurred last year, there were four innings of 350+ of which two occurred in the same match, five innings of 300+ (including the 350+ scores) and 18 innings of 250 or less. So basically, stop talking jazz and being reactionary until you look at the full picture. Thanks.

    Matador BBQs One Day Cup - 5-25 October 2015

    That is a lie. Scores of over 300 have been made regularly in domestic and international cricket. If Australia has to chase 350 in ODI in India, then it is to be expected they should make similar scores in their own domestic overs competition. The reason it is occurring is because the format is...

    Apparently players are happier with the format of the SACA PL this year, not sure about Nielsen and co. Guess they'll see how their Matador Cup goes before they decide on the future.

    If baseballers aren't pitching 170+ there is a little chance a bloke bowling it is going to. I've posted an article previously about how the body can't exert more force than that and it appears that 100mph is pretty much the limit.

    It cracks me up that everyone is supposed to get around a bloke that they don't know just for because? What was Hughes meant to do, invite him over for dinner? I subfielded for a first grade team at a new club when I was young and I was just happy to be in the change room let alone if any of...

    So they're the same as Australia then? The only difference between these two teams is their bowlers are poor. These wickets are exactly the same as they have always been produced and just as similar to the last time they toured, the only difference being no WACA game which you could argue is...

    Meh, I think it is a load of jazz that kids are some how different now to then. As a junior, I couldn't hit it off the square but then guns in the team would whack it from ball one.
