BBL Match 52 Perth Scorchers v Melbourne Renegades 1845hrs @ Perth Stadium

[Shifty1]

Scorchers were shocking in the field today. Hopefully they've got dropping catches out of their system.

 

[Belnakor]

Fair enough think he’s very handy could be the blessing when Agar leaves

I think there is also a concern if Hardie bowls the attack is a bit sameish.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Finch needs to open and Guptill needs to go back to Kiwi Land ASAP

They checked out mentally I reckon. Didn’t seem to be on.

Hope the Gades make the finals.Just don't know which Adelaide side will turn up.There overdue for a better performance.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

If Guptill plays next game let’s hope it’s a Golden Duck

Might not have a choice when Agar goes, and Kelly out (he’s not playing for a week at least)

 

[smasha]

Renegades could of done without Guptill and Critchley batting tonight

Been disappointing Guptill,hopefully everything clicks against the Strikers.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Have they shown the Gades NRR yet?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

If Guptill plays next game let’s hope it’s a Golden Duck

He’s been cooked for a year who honestly thought he’d be any good?

That game is essentially a 5th vs 6th final. I'd say the Strikers go in with a preference to bowl first so they know how quickly they need to knock the runs off to finish ahead of the Gades.

The fact the Strikers are still in contention for finals is astounding considering how putrid they've been. The last few games all have relevance towards final ladder positions, Canes essentially need to win both and Thunder will need to win theirs to get a finals spot.

Both Sunday games where good matches

Payne, Dorf, Tye, Hatz, Richo

Pretty sure we play the Stars not the Gades. We have played the Gades twice (won a few days ago and lost earlier when Finch got 70 odd)

Payne, Dorf, Tye, Hatz, Richo

How close is Richardson realistically. I swear they better not bring him back and he breaks down AGAIN.

 

[freo_leo29]

Finch has been cooked for nearly 2 years yet he just belted us

Our final is 6 days away so he should be right for it, then if we win its another 7 day break

Let’s be real from 3rd down they have all been rubbish. How we are 4th is the biggest laugh.

 

[smasha]

Be great to see a full Optus Stadium for the finals.

To be fair to finch he’s usually good in the BBL. Poor Martin looks like my steak tonight

Adelaide are due to play better than the last few matches.Hurricanes have also been disappointing,imo.
Heat are also coming.

Best wicket for these finals. We sort of want 200 v 200 games

 

[NYRB]

Have they shown the Gades NRR yet?

yep Gades NRR -0.08, Sydney Thunder -0.81, Adelaide -0.11, Hurricanes -0.30

 

[NYRB]

Reckon Perth v Sixers might get 45,000+ crowd next week.

If its a final could be a sell-out.
