Bay 114 SACA Redbacks Thread - Part B

[Beltaball]

Hey Elvis ..Don't know it there would be enough room in the taxi..on the plane or the boat ...it seems only constant in SA is Management, Selectors ,Board, does that say something. oh and a coach that won't answer back or pick the team.
SA no place for a young cricketer..

 

[raikkonen]

Got 4 early wickets today. Should be a huge chance for 4 points!

edit; 6 apparently...who knows... conflicting scores on various websites

 

[betterthanu]

6/91 needing another 89 runs

George looks alright. Got 6 for the match so far and i think hes only 22 years old

 

[Southerntakeover]

Tas 6/91

Need another 89 to win.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Tas 6/91

Need another 89 to win.

Why do I get the feeling we will lose to the 10 and 11 batsmen?

 

[Bacon8]

6 & 8 are doing a reasonable job as it is. Won't get to 10 & 11

 

[Alex99]

Why do I get the feeling we will lose to the 10 and 11 batsmen?

Because we are the Red backs and that’s how it done. It’s a true art form to be that bad.

 

[Mismatched]

Yep, looks like we've f***ed it up again. Another long summer ahead for the Redbacks by the looks.

 

[RangaInTeal]

updates lads?

 

[Big Jols]

updates lads?

SA 232 and 200
TAS 252 and 7/184


Game over Tas won by 3 wickets

 

[Cap]

we were always going to lose

we suck, hopefully some changes can occur before our next loss.

 

[Jars458]

We don't know how to win. Tait struggled to have an impact.

Cullen took 11 in the second XI game. Cramner made 131 and 60-odd.

Plant must go and I think Ferguson has to as well. Harris similarly just can't make enough runs.

 

[RangaInTeal]

what happend to ken skeus?

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

I would not be suprised if Tait is rested for the next 4 dayer and Cullen is brought in.

Plant has to go, James Smith, scored a ton and a 70 odd in the second XI game too and has been doing well at Grade level so he may be given a go. Personally I would open with Klinger, Khan at 3 and then slide Cosgrove in somewhere.

 

[swanfan]

Another season down the urinal.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Khan is out, Pakistani national duties call.

Tait out with a hamstring.

We may struggle.

 

[RoosterLad]

We will get done again I reckon.

James Smith has been rewarded for his good form, and Gary Putland also called in.

No Cosgrove.....

 

[Jars458]

Finally a good day for the redbacks with Cullen Cleary and George doing the business to have WA at 7 for 233. We need to keep them under 300 though.

Looking forward to going to the one dayer on Sunday.

 

[RoosterLad]

Well it's 9/308 now...

 

[hey shorty]

Again we let another team off the hook. 300 has been passed for the loss of 9.

Edit - beaten to it, damn im too slow !!!

 

[Jars458]

309 is not too bad given they won the toss and batted.

We must get first innings points for our confidence.

 

[Sheeds]

2/56.

Need a good a partnership here or there could be a collapse on the way.

 

[Cap]

2/134 - not bad I have to say Klinger has been a miricale worker for this team

probably un-rated due to the Khan recruitment, seems to be able to provide a solid partner is an otherwise wishy washy line up.

 

[Jars458]

Klinger has been excellent. Many people were saying why did we recruit a batsmen who averages in the mid 30's. I thought that such an average would put him in the running for the redbacks B and F. He has been much better than that so far. A good get for SA.

Khan and Wise though have been underwhelming so far, and O'Brien has been solid enough.

 

[hey shorty]

Khan and Wise though have been underwhelming so far, and O'Brien has been solid enough.

Was Wise expected to be much anyway ?? I mean Klinger at least had shown decent patches of form for the Vics but Wise had never done much at all, hes don about as well as expected IMO. Anyone who wanted an exact swap for Harris was kidding themselves. Definetly agree on the other points though.
