SA v NSW Sheffield Shield - 17-20 Oct.

[Brodlach]

will we enforce the follow on if we say roll them for 130ish?

Is that a serious question? Surely yes!

serious yes, it doesnt happen as regularly these days

With RAIN forecast for Thursday, would have NO choice but to enforce the follow on.

Rain dance only chance.

First Class records

PG George
98 wickets
28.7 ave
55.7 sr

TA Copeland
99 wickets
22.0 ave
54.4 sr

Seeing that Pigeon has done most of his bowling on a pitch that is not very bowler friendly, his record stands up very well next to Copeland's.
Cheers

And he doesn't get to bowl to the Redbacks.

Day two update from Lawrie Colliver now online:

http://wickettowicket.com.au/2011/10/19 ... e-control/

[mal]

16/611 in 2 days
24 extras in total
16/587 bat v ball
5/28 Peter George
11/559 all other bowlers

This makes Peter George's performance even more memotorious

[Brodlach]

Putland and Christian open the bowling.....why no Peter George?

Beau Casson will contemplate his future in the game as he flies home to Sydney on Wednesday, having been ruled out of the final two days of the Sheffield Shield match between New South Wales and South Australia at Adelaide Oval.

Recalled to the NSW Shield team for the match, Casson felt unwell shortly before he was due to take the ball in the first session on day one, and later blacked out in the change rooms. It was an unfortunate recurrence of heart-rate problems that have punctuated Casson's career, and he was subsequently taken to hospital.

Once there, Casson expressed to team-mates his devastation at leaving the Blues a bowler short in the field, and his coach Anthony Stuart said the left-arm wrist spinner now had to undergo another round of testing and examination at home before he could be passed fit to play again.

In extraordinary circumstances like these you would think the 12th man could be elevated into the the 11.

[Brodlach]

I agree LM

[smac]

How long before a team abuses it though? A niggle becomes a quick trip to the hospital and let's replace him? Or worse, poor form becomes a niggle, then a hospital trip...

[Brodlach]

I think it would need exceptional circumstances, like this one is.

[Brodlach]

7/164 after 70

7/169

There wouldn't be any dodgy doctors around hey

Probably, maybe the replaced player can't play for two months as a gaurantee clause.

finally a break through 8/214

[stampy]

all out 217 261 behind, what will klinger do?

[Brodlach]

I wonder if they will enforce the follow on? Bowlled around 83 overs in this innings and its getting warmer. I probably still would.
