Shield Game 13: New South Wales vs Victoria, Bankstown Oval, 25-28th Feb 2021, 10:30 am

[k31th]

now to see if the Vics can get to a lead at all

 

[Dazza the Viking]

I doubt Victoria can win from here honestly

Not with their long tail, starting with Gotch, Gotch and Sutherland should be dropped for the next game

Lols at the low camera angle at one end. Surely they could elevate the poor bugger a metre or 2

 

[k31th]

just dumb from Harris... seemed like he was trying to go over cover-point and it just spoons up to point...

 

[Cleavy]

so bat all day tomorrow?

 

[k31th]

quality batting effort from Maddinson on 53* off 141 and Handscomb on 37* off 89 to end the day 1/129 and only trailing by 45 with 9 wickets remaining.

Pretty much vics only option not enough time to force a win.

Yep, 4 days of bright sunshine in Melbourne and our ‘home’ game in Sydney probably ends in a draw due to rain, typical...

Anyone know why a great ball is described as a peach? I don't.

"good nut" = peach?

Lyon would be happy to have got Maddinson out this morning considering the lack of risk the batsmen were taking for the first hour or so

cricket likes its fruit salad references? banana(swing), cherry, plum(b), seeing it like a watermelon

big hundred for Handscomb. captain's hundred

Well done by Victoria to get to 4/270 to lead by 96 when the draw is agreed upon... Handscomb 124* off 327 epic innings... Gotch good backup with 26* off 124.

Handscomb should be man of the match not Henriques

Nah. Moises came in when Victoria were well on top and took NSW to a winning position.

Gotch finished last season with back to back tons and a first class average of 40. It's not like they put him at 6 for no reason.
