Sheffield Shield Round 9: New South Wales v Victoria @ Drummoyne Oval

[eddiesmith]

Precipitation is 71% at 11. Looks like it'll be pretty solid all day tomorrow

Nice, I just read afternoon and evening but the earlier the better!!!

 

[Blue Arrow]

Nice dig from Short again. Does it never not rain in Sydney during a cricket game? overrated crap hole.

This summer I'd say there's been more rain affected games there than non-rain affected. NSW Cricketers would spend more time sitting around doing nothing than fireys in the middle of Winter.

 

[grimlock]

Chasing 166 to win.

Last pair added 26 priceless runs.

 

[grimlock]

Hughes gone for a duck! 1/0!

 

[grimlock]

Larkin also goes for a duck. 2/8.

 

[grimlock]

Beautiful outswinger from Patto claims Henriques for a duck! 3/8

 

[HODGEYROAD]

This is going to be tense, 3-15 chasing 166 for the win. How's the weather looking ?

 

[grimlock]

Looks relatively clear on the rain radar.

 

[grimlock]

Pitch is offering variable bounce and the opening bowlers are getting some movement. Plus with Holland to come on, NSW are up against it here.

What the * is wrong with you? Conceding defeat when the odds were that Victoria would win?

 

[grimlock]

Sangha squared up by a Siddle ball, but the edge falls well short of gully. Tense stuff!!

 

[grimlock]

Oh!! Next ball Patto inside edges one outside off stump from the other Patto, just misses off stump and down to the boundary for 4!

Then next delivery tries to leave it and almost deflects onto his stumps.

Patto looking nervy.

 

[grimlock]

OMG YOU IDIOT Patterson. half hearted pull shot from outside off skied in the air, terrible terrible innings.

 

[eth-dog]

Game on here. I reckon it'll either be a 3- or less wicket win or under 40 runs

 

[corbies]

Pattinson has a freakish record of 2nd innings wickets. It's like he really fires up after getting into the contest. He's an absolute lunatic by my god he's great to watch.

 

[eth-dog]

5 down! Sid gets his 2nd! Sangha out LBW for 6

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Sangha does bugger all as usual.

 

[SunGirl89]

Can't imagine NSW can save this. Will SOK have a runner again?

 

[eth-dog]

Sangha does bugger all as usual.

The kid's 19 and already has two FC tons. Give him time.

 

[theyellowsash]

so are NSW gonna have a sook again when yet another of their pitches is declared unacceptable?

 

[SunGirl89]

If NSW get bowled out for less than 102 it will be the lowest* match aggregate in Sheffield Shield history where 40 wickets have fallen.

*except for #QLDvSA just yesterday!!!

40/447 - QLD v SA in 2018/19
39/528 - NSW v VIC in 2019/19 (with NSW 9/93)
40/537 - NSW v VIC in 1893/94

How is this pitch bad?

How about players use a bit of patience for once. You can get runs if you are willing to work hard.
