BBL Match 29 Brisbane Heat v Hobart Hurricanes 1845hrs @ the Gabba

[juss]

That was a great game.

IPL sides won’t go there.

Huh?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Maybe I have overrated Ellis' batting, awful.

Better than Dooley albeit not saying much

 

[Around the Wicket]

The ball to hit was the one Ellis blocked to get Dooley on strike

 

[Rob]

haha Ellis didn't even try for 2! He trying to protect his average?

 

[hutchy31]

Absolutely atrocious chase. Only a rookie stopped it from being an utter embarrassment.

McDermott and David in particular should be embarrassed from how they got out. And wtf was Ellis thinking? Nudging the ball around when you need a boundary?!

 

[NYRB]

Ellis hardly inspiring with the bat there. His 2 shots were basically blocks ...needed to swing harder.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Huh?

They will want to develop players that are available for India rightly so. If he makes himself available for India and he might, then he might get an ipl deal

Add me to that. Either way, Dooley is too high at 9.

 

[Rob]

Rules are fine it is t20 nothing more or less. Can start a bit earlier. Also don’t need so long between innings

Mate we've had a World cup semi final and a world cup final decided by these shitty rules.

What a strange game. Awesome bowling performance by the Hurricanes, then everything about that brief rain period disadvantaged them.

So much for the team batting 2nd being advantaged by rain affected games, everything about that fell in Brisbane's favour.

I'm starting to think this arbitrary assessment of "resources" is no better than the dumb rain rules we had in the 90s, especially when you consider that the Hurricanes win that if they have an extra wicket in hand during the rain break.

Disappointing David couldn't even finish off this game.

WTF are talking about? If he decides to play for Australia internationally, he'll be an international player in the IPL... like so many other players.

Great response from the Heat,looked gone
The Gabbas rocking.

Get me beat why he bats so low

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Mate we've had a World cup semi final and a world cup final decided by these shitty rules.

So what that’s cricket it happens. Nothing will please everyone especially football fans who think players should play when it’s raining every second.

We didn’t lose the WC because of it- we lost it because we played horrific first up and picked a cooked captain

 

[hutchy31]

It’s so frustrating watching terrible decisions from supposedly senior players.

This comp is barely a contest outside of three teams, and even then I think Brisbane have been pretty fortunate on a few occasions this year.

Scorchers or Sixers will win it, as usual - Heat a possibility. But the other franchises are just horribly run.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Get me beat why he bats so low

He isn’t good enough to bat higher. Purely and simply he’s a finisher

 

[BobbyMorri]

that hurts

Lost it in the first 2 overs.

 

[NYRB]

If Brisbane can get at least 1 point from their next 2 games they will claim the Minor Premiership and will host the 1st week of Finals up in the Gold Coast.

 

[NYRB]

Hobarts loss is a good result for Stars and Adelaide.

Adelaide have to back themselves now to beat Hobart back-to-back to overtake them on the standings and kick them out of Finals contention.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

David and Chaudhary were more to blame for throwing their wickets away with dumb slogs, at least one of them needed to be there at the end

They left it up to two tailenders at the end which is just asking for trouble.

David was worse least the last one was understandable with Dooley, Ellis and Meredith at the other end. David is just so dumb

 

[budge27]

First one was wider than the line for sure. Second was right on the line

that the game there….

 

[gtrxuone]

Wow 27K at the Gabba on a Sunday night.

Surely a few more balls to get his eye in can only benefit him
