Redbacks: Title Town

[Hank93]

I do find the thread title a little funny, but surely this is just the general cricket thread now. Time for a title change?

It's still relevant though

I reckon we keep the title until we win the Shield again.....

 

[Moonwatcher]

The Redbacks have earnt this thread title through decades of hard work.

We could remove the word 'are' the '?' and add a comma.

DROPPED, no run, goes back and edges to Ludeman, the simplest of waist high chances goes down!! Oh dear.

Didn't cost anything with NSW out for 230.

3/49 at tea. Puddings consoling himself.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Can't see why you can't have 2 left handers at the top of the order. At worst they stay together at the crease making runs otherwise they are batting with other partners.

I only just discovered that Tippy Go is a South Australian term. Heated debate on twitter at the moment.

Never even heard of Tippity before.

 

[NTRabbit]

The **** is tippity?

One hand one bounce rule sucks when your batting. It's a brilliant rule when your fielding.

We've got first innings points..........oh wait

Doing well in terms of bonus points though this game... should bring in a good haul if we win.

I usually do that off Grange jetty.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Well we have 2.04 points from the match so far with 27 overs to add to it.

Cricket australia's new website is horrible for getting detailed scores and stats.

 

[Golumless]

Tom Cooper, bowled for 128, great knock.

 

[Pugsley]

Mennie showing a bit of form with the bat.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Would be interesting if we declared on 8 wickets down preventing NSW from getting half a bonus point.

Give them nothing.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Give them nothing.

Even if it means not being able to add half a (batting) bonus point ourselves?

I hate this new system.

 

[Moonwatcher]

It's early but I like it.

Sheffield Shield within 3 years time

The bonus points only count before 100 overs. When we declared in the last game we were already past 100 so no more points were being scored, so declaring did not cost us anything but the deficit. Also if we declare before 100 we're taking away the opportunity to get more bonus points so can't see why we'd do that at all.

Ok so last weeks declaration was only about progressing the game so that a result was possible. We will only get 0.1 or 0.2 bonus points from our last two wickets this week.Not sure why we would give an opponent 0.5 points for the 9th wicket.
