The find of the BBL being Indian feels very symbolic of cricket as a whole atm.

How the Hurricanes miss finals again with the side they've got is just bewildering.

 

[Ochre]

Strikers won't lose much once the internationals go if Weatherald is back to his form of a few years back. Reckon they're a dark horse to win it all

Wade not playing much certainly didn’t help

Adelaide definitely finding a bit of form at the right time.

No it didn't help, but most sides have injuries.

They couldn't even make top 5 last year with an arguably better side.

I don't mind this take on the Bancroft selection issue.

Cameron Green was dropped five months ago. Why the mad rush to bring him back now?

What does it say to Cameron Bancroft and aspiring Test players when a gluttony of runs means less than Green’s unrealised potential?

They’re definitely perennial underachievers. They always always seem to have an international spud all rounder that they have to persist with as well.

Corey Anderson
Faheem Ashraf
Jordan Thompson
Will Jacks

Depending on results the scorchers could be in a situation where coming into their last game vs the sixers, a win gets them 2nd spot and a loss has them finishing outside the finals in 5th.

Sadly not surprising.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

That sucks, his career is going the way of Behrendoff. Injuries granting him zero international cricket in his prime.

Xav Bartlett into the ODI squad thanks.

 

[flyinghi64]

Scorchers vs Heat in 41 degrees.
Sounds about right.

Yeah but at least Behrendorff can regularly manage 4 overs! Richardson needs to either re-invent himself as a batter who occasionally bowls or just give it away altogether.

 

[Shifty1]

Sadly not surprising.

Yep not surprising at all. Can set your watch to his injuries.

I would focus on a T20 career and rack up as much money as you could just playing the international circuit.

Sucks because he's a gun otherwise.

 

[KBLT]

SOK gives Wade a run for his money.

I don't think jhye is making the suburban turf side with his batting .

He really doesn't keep himself in good shape to further his career .

At least berrindorff looks fit .

 

[Dazzler9]

To be a full-time Aussie cricketer you not only need exceptional ability, but also durability.

Jhye fits into the Bruce Reid category, sadly.

You do start to question if he is doing everything possible on this front.

 

[Tugga27]

Scorchers have won the toss and are having a bat thank Christ.

Heat lose their 2 internationals and test players.
We've lost Crawley and obviously Richo.

 

[Ochre]

Going with the extra bat and banking on Hardie/Cooper as the 5th bowler. I think that's a more balanced line up at least
