Sparkle
Simpson for Strawberry
Welcome to Round 5 of the inaugural BFFCL Big Bash! Coming to you this week is the Red Centre Kangaroos and the Blue Mountains Bounders from the Ulu-rena
LAST WEEK
Against all the odds, the Bounders posted a competitive total of 223 then held their nerve throughout the Bolts innings to secure their first win of the season. Frankston Rover, sportsmaniac89 and big_j posted impressive totals with the bat, while SparkleNarkle played the role of the iceman, taking the wickets of Fizzler and Sab22 in the final over, and keeping the Bolts under the required 15 from 6 balls.
The Kangaroos were off their game last week, while Ant Bear and Cloud_ posted fantastic totals, the rest of the order fell away, and little was given by the Kangaroos bowlers, as the Whales cruised to an easy victory
PLAYERS TO WATCH
The Kangaroos will be looking to their opening batting pair of Ant Bear and Cloud_ to spearhead a competitive score, while Tony Lynn 15 and WFL will be looking to take more wickets this week, the Kangaroos bowlers were dissapointing last week, taking only one wicket for the entire match
The Bounders will need another strong innings with the bat, which will be spearheaded by PeanutButter Pies and sportsmaniac89, while big_j will need to play another vital role if the top order collapses. Despite the strong 56 of 22, expect Frankston Rover to drop back down the order, and join SparkleNarkle in leading the Bounders with the ball
PREDICTION
The Bounders will be full of confidence and feeling as though they are on top of their game following the breakthrough victory, although SarahSmiles team will be tested by the stronger Kangaroos. The Roos should have no worries this week, taking victory by 32 runs
CAPTAINS: TEAM SHEETS DUE THURSDAY @ 11:59 PM AEDT
