BBL 2024-2025

Hobart Hurricanes v Sydney Thunder
Worth watching as FigSam has been selected to play for the Thunder

And it was the other forum favourite out shining him.

George Garton, the left arm bowler who played for the Strikers and continuely bowled short and was expensive playing for the Thunder.

Tom Andrews has bowled well for the Thunder after been picked straight from Port in grade cricket.

And Wes Agar's hair cut reminds me of Don Mattingly in the Simpson's.

Strikers are back

[Lightning McQueen]

Strikers are back

Yeah, rinse and repeat.

Show glimpses early on, fall in a hole in the middle, look like world beaters leading up to the finals to give us some false hope only to fail miserably when it counts again. At least we're used of it and can celebrate the good moments.

Haven’t watched much BBL at all this year as I’ve been busy but I watched last night’s game and also watching tonight.
Short and Maxwells innings are as good as any I’ve seen.

He got 19, so up on his recent average.

maxwell hit 2 sixes where the ball was above waist height yet the blind magot never called no ball, shouldnt the third umpire let him know? ffs.....

On brand.... blink and you risk missing it.

Mots, Locky , How did FigSam perform next game v Perth Scorchers ?

Here tonight

Don’t think I’ve seen a Strikers win live since 2017

Knew they weren’t going to be strong when we’ve picked the sh!ttier Manenti

If he continues to bat the way he did in that game he will play alot of test cricket

good to see you dont know the rules Davey

This is why people are critical of younger players - I would imagine 19-20 years olds can only remember the BBL being around; if not, the state based T20 comp would be their earliest memories. So Peake, instead of doing what he was doing before and just rotates/gives strike back to JFM conventionally, goes for the ramp. He misses, then goes for an aggresive stroke and is bowled. Classic T20 batting behavior.
