I'm guessing Renshaw won't be allowed to play with Green testing positive.

On a slightly unrelated note, how does Spencer Johnson miss out on selection in the T20I squad?

That will hurt the Heat, although not massively.

On the T20I selection, it seems to be mandatory that our national selection lags about a year behind the times.

I expect Josh Brown to face deliveries in his avenue of apprehension tonight. If he survives the paceman, SOK will get him out. Sixers to win this summer's BBL carnival.

I reckon he's on the roadway to redemption.

Be quite the story if Brown could back that last game, highly unlikely though.

conservative choice to bowl first.

Smart with the pitch under covers a bit the last couple of days

Great bat flip to start things off! The flipper donged himself first go, flat spinned the 2nd . He should have had a couple of practice efforts for his safety & fairness.

 

[Around the Wicket]

I sort of hope its a good batting pitch, I personally don't want a 130 v 130 Grand Final.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Bloody hell 4 wickets in 9 games for Murphy.. not a wicket taker haha

Its Sydney.
130 v 130 would be as good as it gets in 'Steak & Kidney'

Don't think T20 is his go somehow.

The biggest game of the BBL season on a Wednesday Night FMD.

[NYRB]

All the Sydney Swans are supporting the Sixers bar one.

 

[NYRB]

I wonder why Errol Gulden supports Hobart Hurricanes?

 

[Around the Wicket]

Did MMM get Josh's mum to the game?

 

[Fabab]

Renshaw in ,even though two test batsmen have or had covid this week ?

[Cleavy]

Moises has COVID too, still playing same as Renshaw

Isolate from the team and good to go game day is what it is pretty much now.

Hope he whacks a big score again, good news story.

It would be great to see Brown tee off again tonight but it will be tougher for him to do that against the Sixers bowlers at the SCG.

I wouldn't be surprised if they opened with SOK against him.
