Shield Round 1: South Australia vs Victoria, Adelaide Oval, 4-7 Sep

[eth-dog]

Think Hunt has already scored more 2nd innings run this season compared to last.

Soft dismissal

A couple in there. Sangha's one was bad

 

[MisterMarcus]

Poor old McSweeney's had a dog of a game for someone trying to contend.....

Don't mind the look of Doug Warren, might want to tidy up the no-balls though.

And how is Lloyd Pope only 25? Feels like he's been around for ever.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Vics should walk it in. The no-ball situation isn't good enough.

 

[eth-dog]

With 50 overs left we're the favourites but cricket's a funny game. Hopefully these two kids can get us home

A jinx to beat all jinxes ahaha

Harper has to step up now. SA favs for me

 

[ioppolo]

Who's been bowling all the no balls for SA this game?

Bit of everyone, Hanno Jacobs probably the worst culprit though.

 

[sherb]

Cricket, the great leveller.

A ton in the first innings, a first-baller in the second.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

God I am sick of Harper.

 

[madjoe]

Could be the making of Peake leading the vics to a win

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Hopefully McSweeney brings his bat to the next match.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Can see SA having a hangover unless we get our strongest side together

 

[Cleavy]

beating SA = universe balance restored!

 

[Aussie_boy]

Not all that upset with that result. Right in the game and that'll be our weakest side all season.

 

[Cotchin 9]

Ollie Peake u genius

 

[MisterMarcus]

When I saw a new Victorian player was named "Doug" I thought "I bet he's a left arm nude nut tweaker".

Only unexpected thing was that he was not overweight and balding....

Still time yet....only game 1 of the 2025/26 season....

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Poor old McSweeney's had a dog of a game for someone trying to contend.....

Since his return to Sheffield Shield cricket following his Test debut, he has scored 193 runs @ 19.30.

Hasn't done anything apart from beat the Strikers in a BBL game since debuting for Australia.

He did bowl handy in the ODD final.
