Matador Cup Match 7: CA XI vs Tasmania

[MisterMarcus]

Well, we might get a competitive match involving the CA XI.

The young'uns are making a good fist of it batting first, 1/88 at drinks.

Marcus Harris comes good with 50*

 

[Showbags]

Cue the collapse. They will probably struggle to make 200 from here at 2/165

 

[The_Reaper]

Well this is a refreshing performance

 

[Gak Attack]

Good to see even if it's against my boys.

 

[Amazing Bombers]

Ended up at 7/241 off the 50 overs.

Good stuff by Bos and Harris

Sceptical about the whole development side thing, but if it gives Bos the kick start to his career he needs by giving him the confidence to compete on the domestic stage I'll take back anything I've said about it.

Short having a good all round performance.

I wonder when Tim Paine is going to learn (like Matthew Wade has recently) that he needs to up the pace with his batting a bit in the limited overs stuff? Yeah, he hangs around and "values his wicket", but he almost bats his side out of games sometimes with his snail-like pace. Doesn't have to go crazy, just get the strike rate up to 80-85, rather than the 70 he's sitting at for his List A career, and the 60 he's going at in this match so far.

Could be worse, like Ed Cowan, who's going at 45.

 

[Showbags]

Jake Doran coming in now. Looking forward to seeing what the hype is all about.

 

[aussie1st]

They need him to live up to the hype right now else they are losing this.

 

[Torz]

Two quick wickets for CA. Big opportunity for them here.

 

[aussie1st]

Get Faulkner and game over.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Dixon gets the Finisher!!!

 

[Torz]

Oh boy. With a weak tail, CA should win from here.

 

[The_Reaper]

Come on CA

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Come on CA

This.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Gulbis getting onto Short now. The kids throwing themselves around in the field.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Doherty gone, but with Gulbis still in and the CA guys pretty inexperienced I still reckon it's 50/50.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

DIXON GETS GULBIS!!! THAT IS JUST ABOUT ALL SHE WROTE!!!

More pumped for this than I would be for WA haha.

 

[Torz]

Gulbis gone.

Well done CA. Should get a few of the critics off their back.

 

[Van_Dyke]

South Australia will be gutted that Tassie took the opportunity to lose to the CA XI first.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

3/40, fantastic effort by Matty Dixon, seems to be pretty sharp these days!

 

[The_Reaper]

Dixon's fallen behind in WA stakes but he's still a good prospect for WA

 

[The_Reaper]

Nice win
