BBL Game 18 Melbourne Renegades v Adelaide Strikers 1845hrs @ Docklands Stadium

Wtf is stelhaker on about straight back from the break? Also Payne on in the surge, game over

 

[NYRB]

A double decker from Chief Sutherland!

There was a discussion in the test match thread about not needing a dedicated keeper. * that, Bairstow basically lost the Ashes individually this year because they chose a spicy batter over a proper keeper.

Might have a look at That discussion, thanks.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Surely could've found a decent spinner to replace Khan

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Not hard to pick Payne’s slower ball.

It’s all he bowls.

Ed: & still gets Sutherland.

 

[gtrxuone]

Oh boy Sutherland putting this to bed
No downhill skis for the Gades tonight.

 

[Chuckie357]

How many runs were scored by McGurk between when Hose dropped him and when he was dismissed?

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

I wonder when Adelaide will ever recruit a fast bowler who isn't s**t?

 

[cats_09]

Clarke is back out there

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

And now a full toss to the cripple. Wonderful bowling.

 

[cats_09]

And he definitely doesn't want a quick or slow single

 

[NYRB]

How many runs were scored by McGurk between when Hose dropped him and when he was dismissed?

Dropped at 56, Dismissed at 70 runs.

Genuinely stupid bowling

 

[amazingjoshy]

He can barely move and they have 5 wickets in hand, why send him back out?

 

[Stig O'Hara]

We are plodders in the field.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Surely could've found a decent spinner to replace Khan

He pulled out pretty late I guess. Maybe if they knew earlier they might’ve made a bigger attempt

 

[smasha]

Should've put Clarke in at 9 down if required.

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Full toss on leg. Lol

 

[cats_09]

He can barely move and they have 5 wickets in hand, why send him back out?

Maybe they believe he can take better advantage of the surge than our bowlers can

 

[amazingjoshy]

Maybe they believe he can take better advantage of the surge than our bowlers can

They needed 10 off 20 with Marsh still out there and 5 wickets in hand. It was a walk in the park regardless

 

[icyflakes]

This might be the dumbest cricket strategy I've seen since the Aussies all decided to play a reverse sweep every shot against India. Why the * are you full tossing to a guy with one leg?

 

[H00t]

Marsh at 40 with his body held together by some sticky tape is in the best 5 batters currently in the league.

Shows both his talent and the lack of players coming through need some other youngsters to come along with JFM and Davies.

 

[gtrxuone]

Clarke with a calf or hammy.A few games off ,does Finch come back.

 

[cats_09]

Not sure they really needed to bring the field totally up for that last ball

It's not like Clarke is going to run a "quick" single

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

A pathetic franchise full of fat plodders and Harry Nielson. Barely competitive tonight. You'd have to have an off night to lose to them this year
