Joe Clarke struggled the following day because he was sun burnt and dehydrated from his morning at the beach (before the first game).

If they had actually done anything other than absolutely suck in the matches they played for Australia they may have got game time.
You can pick the best of the BBL and I'll pick the international standard cricketers and we'll see who comes out on top. I'm backing my team in.
BBL should be axed and just go back to state vs state 8 games then finals

Or if colours are important to some merge them.
Melbourne = green/red
Sydney = pink/green
So we have had 2 months of bullsh-t cricket now, Australia going to play more bullsh-t cricket vs Sri Lanka..So much T20
In the glory years of the World Series Cup, we usually played about ten ODIs and five tests. And that's the era we all pine for.

Who are the top 10 guys not on Big Bash lists in premiere / district cricket across the states?
Avendano seems to dominate NSW premiere cricket. I know Ian Holland (Ringwood) always did well in Victorian premiere cricket. Anyone else wanna have a go?
Seems these franchises prefer dudes in there systems than offering a chance to a more seasoned guy at the next level down.

Show me were Cummins and Starc (I know Hazlewood played IPL last year) warrants their selection through playing domestic T20 cricket? I'm not denying that those three are the best bowlers Australia have.

You're asking me a question for a point I wasn't making. They warrant their selection because they are the best bowlers in the country. The best players in the domestic T20 leagues from Australia were found wanting at international level and hence were not given a game in the World Cup.
Cummins did play the first half of the IPL last year btw.

The Big Bash boost point needs to be relegated to a tie breaker only or scrapped altogether rather than being considered a legitimate competition point. The fact the Strikers make the finals with a 6-8 record while the Stars miss out on 7-7 seems unfair to me.
I was really impressed with Hazelwood in the recent T20 world cup and the IPL
He proved that you can still be a quality back of a length bowler and bowl test match lengths and succeed at T20...great to see
To be fair the likes of Phillipe and Mcdermott both got plenty of chances in Bangladesh and west indies last year and didn't fire a shot and Australia got humiliated.

Or at least make it a proper bonus point for say chasing down the opponents total inside 15 overs. The fact that someone gets a bash boost point every game is the problem.

yeah it's gimmicky - it's kinda like a 1st innings point.
not sure we need the bash boost point seeing that we have NRR.

vaudeville was popular for a while.
It's big business whether you like it or not and it's exciting.

Shake down the thunder
A business in decline. I am not sure how many people beyond young kids consider it exciting. I have not watched a match in years coz I was bored and struggle to remember any particular game.
By contrast I count myself lucky to be able to watch Shield games via CA streaming.

I fear the CA nobs are watching the 100 in England and will contemplate its introduction if they can get some fat bonuses.
The IPL is not in decline mate and whether you like it or not the short format is growing daily.
