Guess i'll have to follow a bit of this from work.

 

[Crashy]

God bless you Kayo

 

[Moonwatcher]

What is the benefit of playing at 2:30pm on a weekday? If they don't have lighting then schedule it on a weekend.

 

[Scorpus]

Seems very strange to have a country game scheduled for Wednesday afternoon. To have this game in a horrible time slot as the one game the people out there can watch is bizarre

It wouldn't make any difference in Moe .

God these new emojis suck.

Bigfooty used to have the best emojis on the net.

Lehmann back in and straight to number 3!

That's a good move, would like to see what he'll do there and won't be any worse than Short.

 

[Moonwatcher]

...or Valente

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

It's make or break for him. He's now got an opportunity to potentially come in early and try and make an impact. Short was a turnip at #3. If he fails again, then T20 just isn't for him. He excels at Shield so he can stick to that.

 

[Moonwatcher]

1/26 after 5 overs may not be the best situation to walk into. Hopefully Carey and Weatherald do something today.

 

[eddiesmith]

No Agar? Very disappointing

You were hoping the Stars would score 240?

 

[NSWCROW]

Ballsy from the ump not to pay that LB shout

 

[Moonwatcher]

Well at least batting second will force the Strikers to play some shots.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Strikers haven't taken a wicket in the last 25 overs :/

17.5th over 2 matches ago.

16.5 wicketless overs against Hobart last match.

So 19 overs before this match.

Strikers are terrible this season

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

The Strikers have now gone 30 overs without taking a wicket. The 18th over of the Thunder match was the last time.

Only had to bowl 16.5 against the Hurricanes though. 19 overs before today's play.

 

[Moonwatcher]

That was a dropped catch.

 

[Moonwatcher]

At least Stanlake has bowled economically.
