Indian Temptations is the place on Main North. Outstanding.

Cafe Chennai is another awesome option on Main North Rd

Strikers sure choked up this final against Thunder

Fat lady is yoedelling her head off.
Strikers didn't fire a shot.

Deja vu. Just like last year.

Just didn't get going after early wickets.

Said a few games ago I would have dropped ludman down the order... But probably the underdone jayawardene & putland more of an issue.

Just not good enough when it mattered.

Shame to have a bad game. That's T20 though. If this were a real league, there would be more games and a best of finals series. Could call it the World Series.

 

[FR0GGY]

best part about it being a cut throat final means they can only choke once

Hi everyone,

We have just moved back to Adelaide (lived overseas for past 14 years) and now live in Medindie Gardens.

Where would I be able to get the best Pizza and Indian take away food around that area.

Yes, I will be asking the tough questions.

For Italian style pizza, Bliss Pizzeria on Melbourne Street or cafe Allegria on Payneham Road for great food, including pizza.

Batting first and setting 160 in a final is pretty good.

Bowling, fielding and captaincy was a shambles

rubbish kwalwja was outstanding

No doubt - brilliant knock. But he was dropped on 23, and Hodge chose to bowl out spud Putland with Holland and Head, meanwhile our best 2 bowlers were held back until the game was gone.

Very poor defending a decent total

Basically if a light blue/teal is your main colour and your a South Australian team, your gonna choke.

Batting was 20 runs light imo as never really got going... But agree should have done better bowling though koala made it look easy. He could have chased down 200+ with his ease of striking...

Wasn't it Putland's first game of the year? You could tell he was rusty as hell yet Hodge kept bowling him.

We simply lost too many wickets too cheaply and too early. Got going later on in our innings, but then Khawaja was just too classy a batsman to contain, the Thunder kept chipping in the singles and we only took two lousy wickets. The Strikers saved their worst bloody game for a home final after having finished top. Again. Frankly, that is disrespectful to me as as a fan (even a somewhat casual fan) and the other 48,000 people.

South Australian teams can't get the job done no matter what sport. Soccer, footy, baseball, cricket and basketball have all had chances but blown them, repeatedly.

 

[treeman]

I think our bowling was the major problem last night.
Only 2 decent bowlers in our side are Laughlin and Rashid. The others are just OK.
We were desperately missing Richardson and they were lucky to have Kwaja playing considering he is definitely ODI standard.

You're spot on, keeps happening in all codes - there's a PHD there for someone

Who was the Australian selector who decided to release Khawaja just before the Semis?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I reckon with just 8 overs left Rashid and Laughlin both still had 2 overs each. The game was pretty much gone at that point. Rashid bowled his final over when there was just a few runs to get and Laughlin still had 1 not bowled.

They are 2 of the BBL's best bowlers - unforgivable captaincy

Who was the fielder who dropped him on 23

Lehman

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

That catch would get caught maybe one out of ten

Bowling looked thin against a class player
