Might be a bit of a moot point with this weather...

61 overs to chase 216... chase or draw?

What are we, English? Definitely chase.

It is Tasmania.

 

[Dazzler9]

It is Tasmania.

Yeah yeah, y'all know what I meant.

You have to chase after such a sporting collapse from WA.

Really interested in what HoneyBadger35 would do in these circumstances.

Tim Ward doesn't think so.

Tim Ward doesn't think so.

Everyone else will background him you'd think.
It's a pretty easy chase TBH.

Two in two overs! We're into the tail now!

Cmon warriors you flogs.

 

[Agent93]

Wow, just discovered Cricinfo has dark mode.

 

[Dazzler9]

Rain stopped play. Have until 6.30 I think? Still unlikely to get enough play in I reckon.

I don't know that 'shock' is the adjective I'd use.

Or 'gun'

WA need a miracle.

Problem with the Aus squad is too many of our batters perform best as openers in T20, and we don’t have any specialist finishers

Wade is only good as an opener IMO. Needs pace on the ball early.

Stoinis has never set the world alight in the IPL because he has to bat lower and he takes too long to get going - which is fine when he opens in the BBL.

Warner was dropped from the weakest side in the IPL (which he was captaining). He should be replaced with Stoinis or Wade if they really want to play Wade.

Thats the problem with BBL cause all the highest run scorers are mostly top 3 batsmen. People bitch about Turner being picked but he is a known late order hitter. Mitch Marsh made a ton of runs down the order last few years but it seems like he is being picked at 3/4 now

Warner with over infinity times as many runs as his last knock.

Warner with over infinity times as many runs as his last knock.

And off only 7 balls!

Maxwell batting in the wide brim is exquisite

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Aus T20I side is a joke. Has been for some time.

And surely Voges gets tapped on the shoulder at some point.

 

[FKASC]

Agree about this kit being trash.

Something delicious about watching players get out LBW trying to play reverse sweeps

It's our clash kit for the tournament. Our main kit is the same as the 2019 WC, and that's worse than this one.
