With repect to the women that play the game, it does make for pretty average viewing.
Simply but understandably , the lack of power in their shotmaking is a major drawback to the viewing pleasure.

saw sa v nsw a week or so back, also saw the end of the the grand final on fox today & with no disrespect they wouldn't beat a hard wicket team, i think a team consisting of mal, dutchy, ecky, may_z, bayman, jackpot jim, among others would still win comfortably, however the girls are playing a sport they love, they're committed too & good luck to them...mind you it is better to watch than synchronised swimming

ps, i saw one of the scorpion girls during the big bash which was after their game & i can tell you she was a lot lot better looking than the above said gentlemen ;)
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway

Agree with u there, synchronised swimming whist very skillful, is so so boring to watch. Couldn't call it a sport surely.

Admire their effort but it's a disgrace to have that crap played on an Oval deserving of greater standards.

Absolute embarrassment to the sport of cricket to have it played on that stage.

What would it be, equivilent of C Grade turf cricket maybe even LO1
