Discussion SC BBL|11: Diabolical wins $25k major prize...!!!

[Creeker]

350 from 5 tonight , if only every game scored that well

6/567

fingers crossed

Looking ok for our doubles comp Herb.
4 / 611.
Maxi, Stoinis, Clarke, Zampa, Jordan, Curran and Philippe still to have a crack at it.
Never had the chance to take the (C) off Marsh, (loop). Got delayed with work tonight. We'll put that down as a win. (fluke)

Tactical genius 🤗

Should be hitting 900-1000 for the round , awesome

Wasn't there talk a week ago, that the Scorchers might only get to play one game at Optus, due to the WA government?

 

[50 shades of Wade]

3/426
I need Stoin to go big tomorrow (Maybe a repeat of that famous 147 against the Sixers again)

Munro wasn’t great but that’s what happens when you chase points

Inglis made up his poor innings with some good keeping

MMarsh I’m annoyed I spent the whole day deciding if I should captain him or not and didn’t in the end but I’m more then happy that I actually have him

On to tomorrow were I have DreRuss, Stoin, Curran, SOK, Hughes, Philippe and DC playing

Post 3,936 is the article about Mills , @Bomber18 posted it.

I did pose the question in one of my replies.

Just shows why we need a seperate thread with important information.

At least people are aware of it now.

Maybe their has been a workaround by now.

Hurricanes fly in on the 19th to play so no idea why Mills couldn't fly in under similar circumstances

Although I posted the article, I had no idea that Mills would be missing the double until you pointed it out haha

5/469 NCN (VC)

MMarsh: you beauty! unfortunate, I reckon everyone and their mother had him on their team
AAgar: snagged a couple wickets
DShort: Looked promising after bowling a couple overs... then Marsh had to take him to town after a (BS) no-ball call. He's forcing it with the bat, barely scraping 20 runs, and getting nothing for a strike rate bonus

Hardie: forgot to check the squads to see if he was playing alongside Marsh... shoulda known better

Mills, Evans and McDermott looked great...

Phillipe, DreRuss, Stoinis and NCN to come... need a big game from NCN... kept the VC on him despite knowing the form Marsh was coming in, better pay off.

I thought they moved their game on the 26th & 30th from Perth to Melbourne , but all the HS articles are behind the paywall.

All the talk has been they will be on a extended road trip after the 20th.

Marsh 15.1%

 

[Herbie66]

Not sure if anyones mentioned (cos this thread seems to jump like 5 pages every 15 mins xD)... but, Scorchers' home games on 26th (stars vs scorchers) and 30th (stars vs scorchers) are gonna be played at Melbourne* instead... (Fox)

I believe its MCG, but may be Marvel.. feel free to correct me

Post about the Scorchers games being moved

Agree

Needs a complete rethink of the coaching staff to how to approach the game.

Similar to when Simpson took over as coach , and the onus was on Marsh , Boon , Jones rotating the strike at every opportunity.

Similar to NZ with Edgar & Wright , drop ball run.

Everyone wants to play T20 like the WI and try and hit 2-3 balls a over for 6 , Afghanistan now adopt the same tactics.

When everyone wants to see ball , hit ball for 4 and it fails time after time , they need to change their thinking and approach.

One day a coach might come along and understand it.

Never gonna happen now that we steven bradbury'd our way to a t20 WC win despite years of getting wrecked following the same plan with the same players in t20s and odi's

3/579 (Maxy C)

Played: MMarsh, Bartlett and Tye

Left to play: DreRuss. Maxy (C), Clarke, Couch, Zampa, Curran, Jordan, Phillippee

Now would be a perfect time for Clarke and Jordan to do something special as I think these two will have a large bearing on whether I post a good or average score, good time for Maxy to do a MMarsh too .

Lots riding on tonights game

 

[Chumpion]

Wade over MMarsh hurts my heart.. the reasoning all sounded great beforehand but bloody hell, that one is going to sting for a while!

I was thinking recently that the WC win is bearish for the chances of CA fixing some of the major issues with the BBL. I suspect they will conclude that it’s working.

 

[Herbie66]

Who are people looking at for DGR 6 ?

BH - Lynn , Mujeeb
HH - Short , Wade

 

[Ben's Beasts]

Who are people looking at for DGR 6 ?

BH - Lynn , Mujeeb
HH - Short , Wade

Those four plus Bartlett and Lamichhane who I already own. Then Ellis and also Steketee if he’s available.

We dodged England in the finals, thats the only reason we won. NZ essentially helped us win the WC as we match up much better against them.

Who are people looking at for DGR 6 ?

BH - Lynn , Mujeeb
HH - Short , Wade

Steketee, Mujeeb and possibly Bazley if he keeps showing form. Not loading up too much on Heat as I’ll target probably 4 Canes.

 

[Herbie66]

Steketee definitely on the list , might need to decide between Ellis & Lamichhane as my 3rd Hurricane.

Might just go in with a combined 6 players from both teams.
