BBL 15

[Dutchy]

Zampa, one of the best white ball bowlers in the world, not used to bowl his 4 overs, they go with Sandu instead...

It was wet, he is obviously a spinner where grip is important Sandhu had good figures, I get the decision. Hindsight I guess

Yeah they went the safe option but I said to my son before he bowled the last over that Zampa should be bowling, It was wet before they went off for rain and Zampa had 2/21 off 3.

I wonder how much that Renegades retirement affected the DLS target?

[Lightning McQueen]

There’s other ways to lighten your load

New year, new me.

[Lightning McQueen]

just admit it, we are tripe

How would they fair against this team from season 1 of the BBL

Michael Klinger
Dan Harris
Aiden Blizzard
Callum Ferguson
Cam Borgas
Johan Botha
Adam Croswaithe
Kane Richardson
Aaron O'Brien
Alfonso Thomas
Bryce McGain

Corporal Klinger, vice captian of the best XI to not play test cricket for Australia.

Jamie Siddons, recipient of one of the all time great cricket sledges, is captain, yeah?

Absolutely.

[carey]

I think someone already mentioned it in here, but how bad is the standard of cricket at the minute?

Or is it just me?

[whufc]

Jamie Siddons, recipient of one of the all time great cricket sledges, is captain, yeah?

Absolutely.

Jamie Cox would have to be close to a captaincy role.

Michael Di Venuto, David Hussey would also get a run in the batting order. Darren Berry would have to be the keeper. So far i've got.

Yeh me. Often. Terrible!

I've been harping on about it like a scorned woman, especially the catching.

And as for the commentary pffft **** me, I nearly had to ask the Mrs how her day was I'd rather listen to that.......

Steakette went alright, although I thought he was ordinary Chris Tremain used to get wickets on a regular basis.

Her day was good. How's the dude with the lisp, I kept trying to tune my tv in better.

Paul Rofe as an opening bowling option.

No love for Klinger, whuffer?

David Hussey is a prick, I;d make him 12th man on that alone

Yeah, I'd put him at 3 and move Siddons down one.

You're right, D.Hussey is a first class flogger, he ripped into me one day with some choice language right in front of some kids during an Aus A match.

I'd have Jimmy Maher, Trevor Barsby even Dene Hills before MDV

Dan Marsh and Paul Nobes are candidates for the middle order

Hopes Wright Sekar Noffke and Tremain all ahve claims as bowlers along with Davidson and Holland as spinners

Catfish played test cricket didn't he?

[am Bays]

Lost on me Catfish???

James Hopes, that was his nickname because of his facial hair.

You got me thinking so I went and checked, just ODIs and T20s for Australia 9which TBH is a fair effort.

Another middle order bat/alrounder who played ODIS but never a test was Ken MacKay in the 80s

From the rebel tours of the 80s you could Steve Smith, Mike Haysman and Mick Taylor who all made runs at the "international" level. John Maguire was a good bowler who was 12th man I think for Australia once.

Facing LeRoux, Procter, Rice and a young Alan Donald not a bad attack.
