Who does Laughlin replace?

 

[idel one]

Who does Laughlin replace?

He was in their 13 last game but rested due to a niggle I think. So unchanged 13.

Yes. But I was talking about in the 11

 

[grimlock]

Lalor or Swepson.

 

[brucetiki]

Another afternoon game for the Strikers - though in their current form burying them into a 3:00pm weekday spot is for the best

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Lalor or Swepson.

Both should be in the side

 

[LukeParkerno1]

The option might be dropping Pierson and getting ABDV to keep

 

[Aussie_boy]

I really hope Brisbane bat first here.

Wouldn't your best chance be setting a target?

Who does Laughlin replace?

Prestwidge and Montgomery to miss or Bryant

 

[toxic]

Lalor or Swepson.

I'd be gob smacked if either of of the these are dropped

 

[Aussie_boy]

I just want to see AB bat

And while Brisbane’s bowling attack has improved considerably I think chasing vs them isn’t the worst thing in the world.

Not sure you’d want AB chasing though he’s elite!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Prestwidge and Montgomery to miss or Bryant

Prestwidge seems the obvious one unless ABDV is happy to keep

 

[corbies]

When ABDV was touring Australia with South Africa did anyone go just to watch him bat?

That didn't work well on Tuesday. Even though it's only the BBL, I just want to see AB live. I wouldn't even care if he hits a 50 off 12 balls, I just want to watch in awe of him.

Guess $even made the wise choice to shun them for a 4th game in a row.

One plain & simple suggestion for those that hate the scheduling: Boycott poxtel/kayo, easy

What will boycotting achieve. The deal is locked in for however long

Fair point, but was he facing Liam O'Connor? No. I'm all about elite battles between bat and ball.

 

[Crashy]

Strikers only chance is Weatherald getting a big score

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Heat win toss and bat

 

[Lynnsanity]

Odds on Bryant being out in the first 2 overs - $1.10

 

[Moonwatcher]

Heat win toss and bat

Think this is for the best. The Strikers always target 200 batting first and pay dearly. At least we'll know the target.

Need to keep them to say 160-170
