Crosthwaite and O'Brien in, Harris (hamstring) and Lyon (International Duties) omitted.


The West End Redbacks have made two changes for Friday’s Ryobi One Day Cup clash against the RTA Speedblitz Blues at the SCG.

Adam Crosthwaite has been included in the team that defeated the Retravision Warriors and Aaron O’Brien comes into the side for his first opportunity of the season.

Opening batsman Daniel Harris has been omitted after straining his left hamstring during the Bupa Sheffield Shield game against the Retravision Warriors last week.

Spinner Nathan Lyon, who hit the winning runs against WA, is in South Africa with the Australian Test team.

Im guessing Smith will open. NSW will be hard to beat considering they have about 20 first choice players on their list.

take that back. They are only 5 batsmen

Pretty sure he's injured.

I reckon Cooper will go to the top of the order. Crosthwaite will fit in at 6 or 7.

Max and Blizzard?

has a pretty average record, but wishing him the best to turn it around. looks like patty dangerfield.

Has grade scores of 36, 48 & 104 (70 balls, one day match) this season for East Torrens, few better options at the moment. No doubt he hasn't forced his way in, which would be a preference but he's got lucky with Doc's injury.

Looks like Steve Smith to me

haha brilliant!!

Anyone know where I can watch the game in Adelaide?

It's a Fox broadcast match so it will not be on a live stream to redbacks.com.au, Fox will be the only place to watch it.

I doubt many pubs will play it

Just ask. If the pubs are worth their salt, they'll put it on for ya.

United will be on I reckon

Good to see Crossy get a game.
