BBL BBL Match 23 Perth Scorchers v Adelaide Strikers 4/1 2045hrs @ Perth Stadium

[Moonwatcher]

Spin is Perth's kryptonite and batting is the Strikers'.

 

[Plugger35]

Just see off Shamsi and try and get to 150 you idiots.

Bj showing an inability to count to 6

He's a Kiwi, gotta cut him some slack.

 

[Proeagle]

Shocking night scorchers

 

[Gift]

wow they did bowl all spin haha

 

[LukeParkerno1]

every other team will do this against Perth

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Geez, thought Wood would have bowled the finish.

Anyhoo, run out ball one.

 

[Plugger35]

Agar is in trouble, he is out.

 

[Gift]

every other team will do this against Perth

smart tactics is a rarity in bbl so it probably wont happen

 

[Chuckie357]

BJ still can’t hide his hate for South Australia 30 years later

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

T20 cricket is keeping spin bowling alive, while test cricket is killing it off

 

[Duckimus Prime]

Luke Wood's first two overs... and ending up not getting a go at the tail enders.

 

[SC_Power]

Most wickets taken by spinners in a T20 since… last year, Scorchers v Strikers, Perth Stadium

 

[Duckimus Prime]

If it wasn't for Test cricket would've had Alex Carey there holding the catch on Paris.

 

[Plugger35]

Good hit from Paris for six and another one.

The Scorchers with a total of over 150, it gives them a puncher's chance.

 

[Chuckie357]

Should’ve bowled wood. Game on now

 

[largebus]

Paris embarassing the rest of the scorchers batters really

30 below par that score

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Got a bit cocky with the spin.

Still, 154 is just about gettable for our guys.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Hard to argue that the 16 overs of spin didn’t work but the outcome might’ve been better bowling Wadia and Short less overs.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Can't tell if the pitch is a tad slow or it was just the bowling.

Will say Wood very unlucky to get 2 overs, he was brilliant.

 

[Duckimus Prime]

A few gifted runs to get them to 150.

Scott standing on the boundary rope, the piss poor effort from Harry Manentti earlier to stop a 4.

 

[Coasters7]

Ridiculous tactics from Adelaide. 16 overs of spin is such negative bowling.

Will be the end of the BBL when teams cotton onto this regularly. Bowl first and take the pace off knowing the batting side needs 190+ most matches just to be competitive.

 

[Black Diamond]

Lynn is "off the grog"? He must have been drinking a shitload frequently to have trimmed down that much.

Almost like the aim of the game is to restrict the opposition from scoring? Ground breaking really, Paine is a genius.
