Surely the Strikers are just taking the piss here?

Had the Sixers on toast with the ball and then just bowl;ed utter garbage to allow them back into the game

And then after a flying start with the bat , lose a few wickets and then the next 10 overs just push singles around to allow the rr to get to an impossible 17 rpo. Seriously, they just gave up. Didn't even have a crack. Surely there needs to be an inquiry into this.

Is Matt Short the worst player in BBL history to rack up 30 games? His highlights reel would be shorter than a commercial.

How the hell do we keep signing him, even worse though, we play him.

Is Dizzy in charge of deciding the contracts or someone else?

Surely he'd have a fair say in it, I'm not sure if he was already on a fixed contract though.

Tim Neilson does the contracts, hence why he gave Harry a new three deal year this season :shock:

You would think he would be in conversation with Dizzy though, surely.

We have some spuds, that's for sure. Short, as you say, useless. Our tow overseas players in Briggs and Salt are pathetic.

Davies hits the ball like The Glenn

Tom Cooper plumb LBW off Nathan Ellis called not out, I guess Cooper got lucky after getting an absolute howler against The Strikers.
Just another example of this competition needing DRS.
