Finch non selection hurting. Too classy at this level unfortunately for us.

 

[Rowsus]

This morning I was trying to picture myself Coaching the 'Gades.
I would have sent Finch out with the message.
Anchor the innings. We're looking for 65 to 70 from 50 balls from you, if you're still there after that, go nuts.
That's close to what he's done.

Hopefully can now go nuts.

You are a good judge.

Very similar to what IPL teams do , get 1 of the openers to anchor then go bang after 15 overs.

Unfortunately the trend in the BBL is that a 20 ball 30 is sufficient enough.

Oh well , they might catch on in a season or 3.

Am I the only sucker with Mujeeb no spin Rahman?

he’s on my bench.

 

[Herbie66]

IPL

I think that is where that Aussie bloke plays , Warner or something like that , great T20 player ?

 

[Herbie66]

Dwarshuis dropped Fatty off TC again

Ouch, my last trade which was earmarked for finch but I’ve held it in anticipation of heat playing silly buggers with their team, now I guess it’s flip a coin to patto or Lynn

Finch do us a solid and give Nabi a chance. Thanks in advance.

There was a school of thought some years ago that T20 scores hadn't got as high as they might be expected to in the analytics age because wickets were over-valued by batsmen: that is to say, there was still an element of preservation that didn't need to exist.

I think this tournament has showed that it's still vitally important to keep a partnership going: losing wickets has a massive tangible effect on run rates even if it's just not ticking the strike over as reliably as a set pair.

 

[Rowsus]

43 point over for Finch!

 

[A_C]

Thought it was Finch's turn for VC this round after Head and Wade but didn't even trade him in.

 

[mike89]

Wasn't brave enough to skipper Finch given I don't have a loop - went the safe option in Nabi. Kicking myself now!

Spot on , as much as they go on about tempo batting and helter skelter , their is still time for normal cricket shots , eliminate the dots (30 per innings) , rotate with 1's and 2's.

Not everything has to go to the boundary.

Not everything can go to the boundary.

Unfortunately most have grown up watching Gilly & Haydos , and will never be them.

Play smarter.

The mentality of most Australian batsmen sadly needs to change

 

[Woosie]

Oh dear! I didn't take Finch either... So good to watch though

 

[Rowsus]

Agreed Herbie. It seems they're happy to go dot, dot, bash.
Where smart placement, smartplacement, get the right ball to hit seems a far better % play.

It's almost like they bat my numbers and count the balls.

 

[A_C]

Going to always VC a top 3 bat from next season. Much higher ceiling than a bowler as proven by Head, Wade and Finch over these last 3 rounds. Still have the C as insurance.

 

[jaca]

Glad I went Finch over Short. Didn’t VC him though.

 

[MattyP]

Switching to Nabi last minute instead of Finch hurts. Well done to anyone who VC/C'D him.
