Hard to tell atm

Hopefully we get a game, season over if we dont (or if we lose).

 

[ep2018]

Seems we finally won a toss. Scorchers bowling first.

Interesting lineup, hopefully Fanning goes well

Finally won a toss

Hadds trying to hide his bias: impossible

Commentary already muted for this one.

 

[Andronicus]

Looking forward to another game where scorchers are in a commanding position, but manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

 

[NYRB]

If its a rain shortened game, send Ben Dwarshuis up the order to pinch hit makes sense.

What’s the story with Marsh and Morris?

What’s the story with Marsh and Morris?

Marsh rested according to Insights Youtube on Twitter.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

One ball in and said ball is cooked.

Marsh rested according to Insights Youtube on Twitter.

Rested by who? CA initiated or Perth?

Rested by who? CA initiated or Perth?

Pretty sure by Perth for the next 2 games in Sydney anyway.


Marsh will come back into the team for the last regular home and away game .

 

[Tugga27]

54 metre boundary shouldn't be allowed.

Marsh rested according to Insights Youtube on Twitter.

must have whiplash from walking to the crease, getting out for a first ball duck, and turning around to walk back to the change rooms/dugout

 

[NYRB]

That above post should be 18 Jan 2025, not 19 Dec 2025.

must have whiplash from walking to the crease, getting out for a first ball duck, and turning around to walk back to the change rooms/dugout

He looks mentally cooked TBF.

 

[freo_leo29]

Sixers bat bloody deep tonight

up to 10 and Murphy can fluke an innings at times

 

[NYRB]

Think if you have a child, the last thing you want to be doing is playing a game of hit and giggle cricket. Break will be good for him. Might come back recharged.

 

[Tugga27]

This from Honeyball Twitter:

Reckon if we're not in finals contention he won't be playing.

 

[freo_leo29]

What’s the story with Marsh and Morris?

Marsh stayed in Perth

Dunno about Morris

 

[freo_leo29]

Anyone but Richo chasing that probably would have stopped it

Better for Richo to not dive
