Keemo Paul has had an absolute stinker in the T20 against New Zealand. 0/39 from 3, his last over had four no-balls in it! SC score of 2!

second ball 🦆 earlier as well

Pooran scored 1 and a catch

But I thought CA had $$$ to spend , then Heat , Scorchers , Stars , Thunder sign Cottrell & Pollard on a 3 game deal.

So much talent sitting their and won't have to self quarantine , mind boggling.

Does anyone know how they decide how much area to rope off (ie where to put the boundaries)?

Aside from noticing the rope drifting in over the years, I actually haven’t seen or heard anything on this.

Nice one, thanks Herbie. My suspicion is that they sneak them in almost as much as they can get away with, especially in the smaller formats.

Was essentially wondering whether a bigger ground is in effect still a bigger ground or not.

Surely they wouldn't want a even contest between bat and ball 😀

It's all about 4's and 6's and how many ads they can have for $$$

I know the umpires set the boundary dimensions before the toss but I wonder if the home authority or visiting team have any say in it at all ?

Warnie suggesting he might play as a batsman only.

Still pickable in that case, but might need to look at alternate C options.

Yep, if that’s the case, it almost puts him on par with Maxwell and Zampa as evidenced by their starting prices.

If Stoinis is available to bowl then he’s an absolute no brainer as C but if not it makes things very interesting.

Hopefully we will have confirmation prior to the Stars first game.

Pretty sure he didn't bowl much last year either ....

Exactly ... so he’s probably around fairly priced so long as he has another blinder with the bat. I was hoping that his bowling would be back and take him to another level (/provide a significant o***et if his batting dropped off). Might have been a little too easy :)
