What the hell has happened so far? With Tassie scoring such a huge score it was always going to be mission impossible to get their target in 40 overs anyway.

As soon as we start to show signs of improvement we turn to shite again, f*** they are an embarrassment to this state.


That would've got one bonus point but we needed to get the double bonus point to have any chance at all of playing in the final. Meant we needed to get the runs in 25 overs. Alright it was basically impossible to do that but at least they gave it a crack. If you don't win you may as well come last as Darren Lehmann mentioned.

Oh I didn't realise we needed double bonus point, I thought it was just a single. Well that would have been impossible in that case.

Did they go for it early or just get out to crap batting/good bowling?

I don't agree with Lehmo on this one. With our fragile state of cricket at the moment, getting to 278 off the last ball would've done us better than getting bolwed out for 150. I see everyone's point, but I can't see having comical run outs benefitting the side longer term.
