BBL Match 50 Sydney Sixers v Sydney Thunder 1835hrs @ the SCG

[Rob]

Hopefully someone at CA is watching this and a lightbulb is going off about having our best players playing in this league

 

[010203]

That was about 25 rows back

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Is there a worse death bowler than Daniel Sams?

 

[11kgm]

The fact that we don't often have the national team players doesn't mean it's not what we should be doing.

When you factor in that no one at all wants to play here now - look at the squads in the UAE and South Africa - I'd argue that the competition has no integrity (as an elite competition) without the national team players.

As long as all teams are treated equally I'm happy

 

[Moonwatcher]

We shouldn't pay 2 players out of a marketing budget that is at CA discretion

Wouldn't be an Australian sporting competition without a 'marketing' budget.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Good heavens, he’s hitting 6s all over the park.

 

[Moonwatcher]

OOF

 

[smasha]

Nearly KO'd his partner.

 

[nobbyiscool]

This balls about to haven flames coming off it.

 

[The hands of stone]

This is crazy next level batting

 

[chickenonachain]

Is this the best hundred ever

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Smith never played like this for Australia in T20s.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Dreadful by the Thunder. The Strikers only allowed Smith 101

 

[smasha]

Is Junior wearing his Thunder shirt like he said he would?

 

[11kgm]

Smith never played like this for Australia in T20s.

To be fair Sams is normally on his team

 

[chickenonachain]

Smith never played like this for Australia in T20s.

The other teams don’t have Sams bowling for them

 

[DEVO]

Most sixes in BBL12

David (Hurricanes) 18 in 12 games
Short (Strikers) 18 in 13 games
Smith (Sixers) 18 in 3 games

 

[Moonwatcher]

Does Smith have an IPL contract?

 

[chickenonachain]

absolutely brilliant innings

 

[NYRB]

fair play to Steve Smith, that was a neat knock.

Sydney Thunder looked off with their bowling tonight.

 

[V_23]

Smith absolutely dominated

 

[DEVO]

As good as my mum's Roast Lamb was, I'm disappointed I missed most of an amazing innings.

 

[Rocco sifreddi]

Has Smith ever opened besides these 2 games
In any T20?

 

[NYRB]

Steve Smith may have been found out a bit in the T20 format internationally but still he is still a higher level than most of the BBL players.

 

[DEVO]

Surely these last two innings from Smith changes how the Australian T20 line up the next time they play. He has to open.
