Shield Round 6: Tasmania vs South Australia, Bellerive Oval

[Nathan Barley]

Why wouldn’t you promote JFM?

Surely SA has better options than JFM.

5/7 .

The lead may be big enough, but collapses like this are still problematic.

Missing our 3 best bats and looking very comfortable

Not great execution but hardly a concern

Not playing LB's today...

Redbacks essentially playing their B grade bowling attack likely to cost them top spot in the shield.

Tassie should be looking to go for these runs now. 50 or so overs left in the day?

Yeah, 113 over innings. I reckon they aim to be 150 behind around the new ball and have a crack

Manenti has 2/360 outside of that Victoria game where he took 5

Agar has 1/200 for the season... where is Johnson and Buckingham?

You'd assume Buckingham is injured and Johnson managed. You'd just want to be confident in your seamers if Manenti is your only spin bowler

Also assuming Sanghas shoulder injury means he can't bowl. Didn't seem to impact his batting too much though

The run rate on this coverage has been wrong all day, it's really starting to piss me off now that it's relevant to assessing where the game is at.

Cricinfo is saying a minimum of 38 overs left. If we assume that's right (I thought it would be closer to 44 with the rain delays on day 2), 190 off 38 with only 6 wickets remaining? That's bang on 5 an over, so the win is off the table for the Tigers. If feels like a really long tail with Hope at 6.

For the overs Hope and Owen (don't) bowl, surely it's just worth picking an extra batter?

Ned to go at 7's to win from here Tassie. Have a crack now?

Meanwhile over in Sydney, number 10 & 11 are trying to save the game for WA with about 3 overs left

Catch 22 is they need to cut off the singles too

 

[eth-dog]

That maybe keeps the SA win alive?

 

[eth-dog]

27 off 24. Oof. Gonna be tight

16 off 12...Tassie need a boundary or two
