Just about to start. SA bowling first on what looks like a bowler friendly wicket - greenish with plenty of moisture. The curator put some water into it becauase it has been dry in Sydney but was caught out by overnight rain.
With no Magill and the Backs boasting an awesome attack, I'd expect the Redbacks to win this one so Jaques the key early doors and also Haddin obviously a key wicket. Go the Blues!!
regards,
REB

Steady start by the Blues. At drinks (13.5) NSW 1/56, Simmons the man out caugh Manou bowled Dizzy for 26. Jaques looking rusty (dropped by Cosgrove earlier) and young Christian has nearly run himself out first ball!
regards,
REB

Small ground REB, I think NSW need 275 to be competitive.
4/151 AFTER 32 OVERS
252 would be a likely score at this stage.
SA I think will be the o/d champs this year.

watching the game on fox, SA fell away badly
on Cosgrove, if this kid wants to play in the world cup he needs to improve his fielding in quick time

Elliott looking good 29no

suprise NSW have stuck with opening bowlers, you would of thought given the start they would of made a change by now
No McGill, NSW may struggle to contain SA on a small oval

Cossie made the mistake of playing for the spin !!!
Slow outfield makes it harder.
SA 1/84OF 14.5 OVERS.
Elliot just hit a six of Thornley.
NSW has a very average attack, we can still win.
TA beat QLD by 7 wickets in the Pura Cup game at the Gabba.

Bluey has continued with last seasons form, looking very very scratchy and needs to start playing some shots

SA needs to keep ahead of the target rate just in case more rain or bad light stops play
Bluey needs to provide more support

What an idiot - the wicket caused SA to need to be 131 after that over. If they go off now SA behind the rate! Class act Blewett.

with 9 runs now required per over and Hauritz bowling I would of thought Boof or Manou would of come in and took control off the game
