Oval usage - Cricket

[Peter Doherty]

Duck for Marnus, the w***er.

8/86, is the deck dodgy or we bowling very well

2 dumb shots by Test batsmen and a horrible run out made it worse than it looks.

We did drop 2 catches before they reached 10 though.

QLD would be 0/200 at the Adelaide Oval

master stroke

Shield final has always been held around this time of year, its the AFL who have encroached TBH.

Wat

 

[StickerMan]

And now we just bat, and bat, and bat....

 

[George CantStandYa]

Big crowd

 

[ams4crows]

If we make a good score here in the first innings then shield is ours, just gotta hope the Redbacks don't do a Redbacks to bowl Queensland out for 95 was excellent tile to knuckle down now and grind

You can't have your opener and 1st drop batsman who is your captain making bloody ducks in a final ffs

Like Queensland did ??

He has been sadly out of form since picked for Australia. Hunt and Sangha both failing as well is a real blow. Batting last on this pitch won't be a bed of roses. Hopefully get up to 250. Our middle and lower order is pretty strong.

[Cromulant]

Actually we're leading

 

[Geoffa32]

Push out the lead by 100 plus.

Knock em over cheap again.

Job done by the weekend.

Or tomorrow at this rate

 

[GreyCrow]

Bat past 100 overs without too much more carnage

 

[Cromulant]

Bat past 100 overs without too much more carnage

Might be a struggle

 

[DJ75]

Going to be a very interesting day.

If the conditions settle into a batters paradise, we need to make the most of it. If not, QLD could bat well past our total and then put us under a lot of pressure to win with the bat.

If it stays tricky, a 100+ lead will be a huge bonus.

Either way, batting last to win the final is going to be very challenging. Will be some very nervous moments I suspect.

Wouldnt be a SACA game without them sadly.

Looks like everything has very much settled. Need one of these two (Lehmann, Manenti) to make a hundred.
Do that and we should be very hard to beat.

 

[Geoffa32]

Great day cricket ahead, SACA facing an entertaining run chase to win the first Shield in 30 years. On a Saturday.


Less than 2000 people there now.



Would have been embarrassing moving this to AO with sub 5k crowds.

On top of that imagine if that hair brain idea of swapping the round 24 fixture with this week's had been pushed for this and we were faced with playing the Kangaroos at marvel on Sunday instead of AO.

Also got to remember day four was to be a Thursday.
