BBL Match 55 Hobart Hurricanes v Brisbane Heat 1310hrs @ UTAS Oval

[NYRB]

Another thing to add to the "things about Cricket that piss me off" thread.

I mind I dont mind showing it one time . But I think we have seen Brendon Julians photo album about 4 times this summer.

God I miss Tassie. What a ridiculous place full of amazing characters.

 

[NYRB]

these two just playing it smartly right now....they know they only need to chip it around for 1s

 

[NYRB]

thats a beautiful shot from Jimmy Peirson

This is why internationals don't really help you in BBL - they seem to think it's all about entertainment but this deep in the season you need to do what's best for the team. Brisbane know they win and they get a home final.

This captaincy sucks. They need wickets to win - why the * is David bowling? What are they holding Meredith back for?

 

[NYRB]

reckon Canes need to have players in, only going to win this now by taking wickets. Cant let these two get easy singles

Surge

Wade seething at that decision of a wide. Grumpy old Wadey

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Which dumb tool picked Parker and his pies over Dooley

 

[NYRB]

no point saving your better bowlers for the 19th or 20th over. Gotta bowl them now or it will be game over.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Think they have to bring Ellis or Meredith now after that over

 

[NYRB]

Meredith back on now in the 15th over. Its game here

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Ellis next over surely

 

[SaintBilly]

Yeah this is pretty average handling of a low run chase. I spose they don't have a Dooley to rely on to get them over the line. Tbh I think the Canes have been a bigger disappointment than anyone else this year. Should have challenged for top two, not be fighting for a spot by defending 120

Last thing the Heat needed that. That's got broken thumb written all over it.

 

[SaintBilly]

So at this point it looks highly unlikely the five will change - Brisbane to finish third and Gades and Thunder to play an eliminator at Marvel on Friday night.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Default baby woohoo

 

[Aussie_boy]

Apparently the 'siren' was just a bloke in the crowd making that noise. What a *******.

Also, Faheem has actually been ok since that infamous Adelaide appearance.

Vuvuzelas would be better.

Yeah I wrote Faheem off but he is a useful cricketer.

 

[SaintBilly]

late twist perhaps? or too little too late?

Give me the atmosphere of the Sheffield Shield over that clown

 

[SaintBilly]

This would be one hell of a choke from the Heat if they managed to lose this.

they won't - more likely to come from the stars.

 

[The 747]

Nah it's just annoying like those vuvuzelas they had at the World Cup in South Africa.

Vuvuzelas were great, what's wrong with you?
