SA vs TAS (Sheffield Shield)

[quote="mal"][quote="bayman"]

He has plenty of guts


just like us two mal

[scott]

If we have a Spelly equivalent out there somewhere, it would be interesting to know which players representing SA in either form of competition have scored a ton this year and how many times?

Lehmann and Deitz have each scored one four-day ton, while Elliott has been our only one-day century maker.

Btw, spelly is in a league of his own.

[Rik E Boy]

Hilfenhaus looks like Bjorn Borg?? Ease up on the medication mally!

The score that we have now is great for us and about average for most other 1st grade side.

LOL Fair call on Spelly, and thanks for the info ... I guess the fact that we have only 3 tons from 10+ innings says it all

SA 7/328

LEHMANN 57
DIETZ 13
GILLESPIE 5*
CULLEN 10 *

SA loses 2/40 this morning off 17 overs.
Mals man the next fast bowling sensation of Australia, a man who has a Bjorn Borg beard,
a man who bowls like Garth Mckenzie, a man that bowls at 140 km, a man that will need
shoulder surgery in March or after the o/d World Cup from carrying the Tasmanian
bowling attack, has done it again.
Adam Hilfentasmaniahaus snared Lehmann + Dietz and now has
33 overs
6 maidens
5/74

TAIT 10*[8]

We lost 5/61 off 26 overs

HILFENHAUS
37 OVERS
7 MAIDENS
7/79

The barrell chested fast bowling superstar this morning had 13 overs 4/27.

349 will be a very competitive total to defend, Dan Cullen is due for wickets, has he taken
a first class wicket this year yet ?
Ironically our best totals this year are on the road.
349 v TA
9/399 V NSW
Ironically Daniel Harris played in those games.
How Good is HARRIS, HILFENHAUS didnt get him out

[mighty_tiger_79]

HILFENHAUS is LEO SAYERS 'ONE MAN BAND!!!!!!!!!!!'

Well done Mr MT79 you got the cryptic right.
Also you off all people would have to agree that Leo has a peculiar hairdo

TAS 1/1

GILLESPIE on http://www.cricket.com.au

What a team, bat first, play decent openers and ......

[Dutchy]

So your happy with Boof's decision to bat first Mal?

[RoosterMarty]

Bailey smacked Dan Cullen for a 6 and he was looking good then shouldered arms to a Dizzy inswinger and had his off stump pegged back.

4/86 now
finish them off Redbacks!

[mal]

So your happy with Boof's decision to bat first Mal?

Yes and I hope Boof captains well and makes passionate supporters like me happier.
I have been a bit over the top with Boofs captaincy, buts thats stemming from the
frustration of losing winnable games.

DUTCHY we have had a problem for 2 seasons with opening batsmen and the keeper
What is irreverantly stunning is the coach and the selectors to address the problem.
PHILLPS = Part tme wicketkeeper and opening batsman
NOBES = opening batsman
KELLY = Wicketkeeper/batsman

Surely the 3 would have the qualifiactions to address the matter.

But I will say one thing about the hierachy they have produced a team and promoted some
great juniors and we must now repay the system.
HARRIS/BORGAS/FERGUSON./COSGROVE/TAIT/BAILEY/CULLEN
7 VERY VERY GOOD players brought thru by Chappell /Phillips and too a lesser extent.
Nobes/Kelly

KELLY is the awswer, he identifies young talent, a great educator of cricketers and a very
popular person.
KELLY has made a shield 100 against Jeff Thomsons QLD a few years ago.

And yes bat first in the longer games.

TAS 4/86 Dizzy and Taity 2 wickets apiece.
I suppose COSGROVE/HARRIS/BORGAS are warming up for a spell

CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS ABSOLUTE MORONALITY

HE IS OBVIOUSLY DOING crazzzzzzzzzzzy things to be the best available
applicant to coach England.
And before you all jump on my throat CAN YOU THINK OF A BETTER REASON

Twoheadsmania got 29 charitable runs off Cosgrove a terrific batsman but bowler no thanks.
We look to have 1st innings points in the bank but captains bowling choices ?
Come on Boof bowl youself YOU ARE A SUPERIOR BOWLER TO COSSIE.

MALS preview stated that we needed Cullen to take wickets + he has.
The babybacks are are a good team just need a win + some inspired leadership.

Amazing Cosgrove off TAIT on and look what happens

[Max]

Hey Mal - a long shot explanation...

Do you think maybe the selecters are looking for a batsman that is capable of bowling 5-6 overs in a World Cup match? Perhaps Boof is trying to get one of his protege's over the the Carribean? Just a thought. I would like to see Boof bowl himself more as well...

Cheers,

Max

[JK]

Perhaps Boof is preparing for the day when he's no longer an option to bowl

[blink]

Maybe Boof doesn't want to take wickets away from his 2 young spinners in Cullen & Bailey.

He knows he will never play for Australia again (an outrage!), so he doesn't want to deny those boys match practice and wicket-taking opportunities by bowling himself.

[mal]

MAX/CP/BLINK
How do we all feel BOOF is bowling this morning already had an over
MARSH out 76
TAS 8/238

What can we expect today a SA declaration setting TA say 200 of 100 overs

We all know anything is possible......
