WBBL09

Jess Duffin has announced her retirement. So this will be her last game.

Nice to see Fox Cricket is on site for a WBBL game for once this season.

 

[Del125763]

Duffin with a nice little moment in her last game, taking a catch at the MCG.

Stars in a bit of trouble 20/3 off 23 balls.

Stars might be battling to bat the full 20 overs here.

Does Flintoff normally come in this high up the order?

 

[Del125763]

One thing I noticed about the MCG compared to alot of other Victorian grounds is even with the ropes brought in, its significantly bigger boundaries to hit.

 

[Del125763]

Does Flintoff normally come in this high up the order?

Usually its been Flintoff or Faltum. Lanning retired has meant pretty much everyone has had to move 1 spot up the order.

I would have preferred it if this game was played in Geelong.

Time for Grand Final and venue confirmed



4:10PM AWST, 7:10PM AEST, 6:40PM Local

 

[Del125763]

Probably going to be the hottest ticket in town in Adelaide next week.

Not a smart shot by Sutherland.

If your going to play a shot like that, surely you take the Power Surge at least. Kaur gets a wicket in her 1st over.

Was there to be hit to be fair, just toed it

Dont mind if she plays that shot, with 3 less fielders outside the 30-yard circle.

They are making Prestwidge look like prime McGrath out there

Kaur wouldn't be bowling in the surge. It was there to be hit, just mistimed it, she'd hit that 10 times and hit it for 6 most of the time

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Flintoff is having a putrid year

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Stars really need some better imports next year, you wouldn't even say Capsey has been good either, Dunkley has been shocking

 

[cats_09]

Something seems to happen when Kaur bowls - have to wonder why she wasn't used more during the early to middle part of the season

This for sure.

Need a cleanout and less reliance on English top order batsman.

Probably need more all-rounder types in their team and look to get a good local batsman or 2 added into their team, especially with Meg Lanning retiring.

Apparently was barely bowling coming into the tournament so whether she was even fit to bowl no idea.

Boucher even worse - think they said it's something 4 ducks including a couple of golden ducks

That's not an ideal return from your intentional

Need 2 solid batsmen, with one being an AR, you can't have Garth at 7 or whatever she's barely a 9. Get rid of Dunkley been found out massively. Capsey I'll keep as she does bowl but she better bat better next season!

Yep, such a young player, and it's a big concern when your 3 imports aren't really the most experienced.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

It gets worse lol

And yet I recon I have no confidence in the Gades chasing this

 

[010203]

Raining in Melbourne. Surprise, surprise.

Probably saves everyone watching two sides trying to lose
