BBL Match 42 Knockout Sydney Thunder v Melbourne Stars 22/1 1900hrs @ Sydney Showgrounds Stadium

[smasha]

Shithouse pitch.

 

[Plugger35]

Nice six from Andrews at the end, the Thunder should have sent him in earlier, he is an underrated hitter.

 

[The Sultan]

Wtf is this pitch?

its like the old maithoid cricket pitches i played in D-grade.. middle of summer they would get sticky and ball would grip like verlco top the pitch.

 

[Saints4ever]

Trevor Bayliss reminds me of Chris Fagan.

 

[PhatBoy]

Yeah but also theres nearly no need to go aerial at all. I understand bowlers are trying to bowl to their fields as well but there’s space everywhere if you pierce the infield.

Well that’s true too, there are gaps as well but yeah if you get it over the circle there’s no one out there so pierce the field or clear it: either way you can do it with normal shots and there’s no need to do either with reverse or switch hits

I was sitting here waiting for the 20th over (watching on mute)

Stars are going to find a way to lose, aren't they?

12 overs of spin coming up from the Thunder.

Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

 

[madjoe]

harper to get a sneaky 50 and win the game,

 

[Moonwatcher]

Is 135 on a slow pitch tailor made for the Stoinplod?

It’s not an easy pitch to bat on so anything’s possible.

Green, Andrews and Sangha will be key for the Thunder

 

[Plugger35]

Ch7 are promoting the hell out of the Sri Lanka v Australia test series now like it's the Ashes, I bet Fox aren't even mentioning it.

 

[darcytiger]

Game definitely not over, tough pitch. Don’t mind this every now and then, changes it up.

I doubt they can handle the rampaging pace of Big Slick Wes.

[Aussie pie]

This has a spuds choke written all over it.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Total putz Harper.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

More than usual midget

 

[tigs2010]

[The Sultan]

 

[010203]

Harper was there for a fun time not a long time.

 

[Aussie pie]
