BBL 15

[The Dark Knight]

Two hundreds, an 82 and 67* for Warner and currently top of the runs but the Thunder will still most likely finish bottom.

Warner has passed 14,000 T20 runs joining Gayle, Pollard and Hales and tonight was his 10th T20 hundred, Babar Azam has 11.

Just turned it on and Steve Smith is taking the absolute piss

Yep, this is good to watch, just does whatever he wants at domestic level. Sixes going for a 10 wicket win.

I'm surprised that the most runs in a BBL over was less than 32 before tonight; I can't find who was involved in the previous record; TDK, can you?

Daniel Sams hit Lloyd Pope for 31 when they needed 34 off the last two overs

Sam's has struggled to hit the ball since

[RB]

The Pontiff and Andrew Tye were the previous equal holders of the dubious distinction, with 31 runs conceded off a BBL over:

Pope, Strikers v Thunder @ Manuka, 2024-25: 6 6 w 4 6 4 4 (Sams faced all)
Tye, Scorchers v Renegades @ Perth Stadium, 2022-23: 2 4 4 2 6nb 6 6 (Aaron Finch faced all)

However, Hadley has only managed to equal the Australian T20 record, previously held outright by Scott Coyte:

Coyte: NSW v WA @ Homebush, 2010/11: 6 6 6 4 4 6 (Chris Gayle faced all)

The record for a T20I in Australia is 28, held by Adam Zampa:

Zampa: Australia v West Indies at Perth Stadium, 2023-24: 6 0 4 6 6 6 (Andre Russell faced all)

I recall that one now, I couldn't have said how many came off that one though.

Thank you for that, as I could only find on Cricinfo the most runs in an IPL over. Is one surprised?

The $ signings have been disappointing, don't think they will be invited back in a hurry.

Azam 202 runs @28.71 striking at 107.48
Afridi 4 wickets @76.50 Economy 11.19 - Taken off for no balls

Good start

[Armchair expert]

Even better start

[Armchair expert]

Should have taken 3 wickets in the first over but Hassan can't catch a soda

[locky801]

Rizwan on the move early here,

well for a short time

[locky801]

Why does Matt Short bowl plenty of better in the team than him

edit. Lynn is the only non w/k fielder who can't bowl when you look at it
