SA v Tas at Glenelg

[heater31]

can someone tell me how ludeman can bat like a man posessed in the bigbash and turns into chris tavare back at shield level????

20 not out off 120 odd balls is exactly what we need when the top 3 were back in the pavilion without troubling the scorecard......occupying the crease and making the bowlers bowl to you not making silly mistakes.


Yes scoring may be slow but he is not giving his wicket away easily. Only bowlers after him.

The tassie coaches signalling for Mennie to be bounced

i understand that but he did it last week when we batted first and were going alright, what is the excuse for that?

Cross bat slogging hasn't traditionally worked in the shield

no ******* kidding?!

[stampy]

ffs

[whufc]

no ******* kidding?!

You can't expect a bloke to come in at 7 and try and hit every ball over cow corner

That's all he did in the big bash, batted like a para districts cricketer but got lucky and was helped by flat decks, field restrictions, hard balls and tiny boundaries

Can't even come close to comparing the two

[mighty_tiger_79]

He does have tiny boundaries at the moment

[mighty_tiger_79]

Apparently brighton rd is like king William rd also


so as meatloaf said 2 outta 3 aint bad

Also don't see Glen Maxwell leaving one on middle in the Shield either

Except for when we bat on it

3/2
5/103
9/293 lunch
Great recovery , well done
And another last wicket partnership to piss off the opposition
44 unbroken by Dan Frankie Worrall and Joe Mennie , following the match saving Zampa/Putland 67 run partnership 2nd dig v WA last week

and btw you didnt answer my question?

[stampy]

last 3 digs, 65 from 266, now thats snails pace regardless of the situation

[Dogwatcher]

I'd rather him at the crease than not.
Longer at the crease, that's one less batsman under pressure down the line.
If we were a team in a better position, then I'd be more acerbic.

[heater31]

All out 295.

Never thought we would be that close at 3/2 or last 102 overs!

He obviously bats a lot more defensive in shield cricket regardless of the situation

I thinks it's pretty fair to suggest despite not scoring a lot of runs the extra time Ludeman batted helped enable the likes of Mennie, Zampa and Worrall to put on the runs they did
