7/679 hopefully

Christian , Dwarshuis , Inglis (hopefully) , Richardson

Great score Herbie, green jacket for you tomorrow.

 

[Herbie66]

Finch $ 100k BE 84

Sale in the Bargain Bin

 

[Lgndhen23]

2 different pars i reckon

good captain choice and youll be looking at 650-750

bad captain choice and youll be looking at 500-600

 

[Herbie66]

Great score Herbie, green jacket for you tomorrow.

Wow now that would be very nice

8/389 Rashid C

Captain Rashid disappointing. Nabi a bit average.

 

[McLovin]

7/437 Khan
Finchy's been an absolutely disastrous selection for me. Massively outscored by Marsh last round, now he'll inevitably be outscored by whichever sixers spinner I trade instead of him.

Christian , Dwarshuis , Inglis (hopefully) , Richardson

Doing the lion's share of the scoring for our doubles pairing there. 474/8 Rash C for me

I think you have carried me most rounds , thought I had better step up.

It's interesting re OS signings.

Do you get the young player keen to make a mark on the world stage and trying to get noticed for a IPL contract (and therefore have to perform consistently) or do you go for those players whose International careers are over , coming to a end and probably have nothing to prove anymore.

Do they really 100% care over a 14 game season , it's almost a been their/done that type of attitude , oh well theirs another game in 2-3 days.

7/327 can this crap round end already

Agree, get new blood, an unknown.

Someone who is hungry to succeed.

 

[Professor]

If Weatherald bats at 6, think I might bring him back in.

 

[Professor]

Someone who is hungry to succeed.

or someone that still has it and a bit more. Gades need another Kane. Yes Williamson.

 

[Jim's Dim Sims]

Appears like the Stoinis captainers are in a different league this week. Well done to those who got on.

 

[AaronXA]

8/596

Played: M Stoinis (C), D Short, A Hales, J Wildermuth, T Sangha, R Khan, M Nabi and A Carey.
Yet to play: D Christian, J Philippe and J Inglis

D Short the only player to score below 40 so far. M Marsh and J Behrendorff benched and unable to loop either so hopefully they do not go large and both post a respectable score in excess of 35.

Wow, what a difference having stoinis as Captain makes... I traded in Short for Fergusson and have MMarsh instead of Inglis... but that’s a 160 point difference thanks to Stoinis

Good luck getting NZ agreeing to that.

I remember 10+ years ago Fleming always wanted a North Island and South Island team in the Sheffield Shield to strengthen NZ cricket.

Imagine instead of 2 Melbourne & Sydney sides they did that for Big Bash.

We could then send our development/fringe players over for their NZ Smash Series.

Does NZ have any other commitments? Haven't checked their schedule, surely they can spare a couple of weeks.

 

[Johno69]

Next round to me screams caution thru the myriad trials and tribulations that the weather, players injured maybe ( Sams ), poor form, (Finch )
and the never ending saga of the overseas players availability amid the pandemic and bad coaching decisions. Good luck fellas and ladies.

2nd Test v Pakistan almost all over.

NZ Smash

Then the T20I'S series v Australia.

They normally don't release any of their centrally contracted players.

Phillips & Seifert are the 2 I would like to see out here.
