The joys of rushing a copy and paste.

Now I can't remember who I had in there., I better not mix the words Kelly and Hunt.

Dizzy owes me plenty.

I backed the Strikers to finish last, since that bet they’ve won 5 in a row! Lol :)

Harry Conway excuted that last over very well under pressure, helped by some good catching.
Strikers on a role!

Khawaja C Ahmed B Short 23

Johnny Farnham once sang a song in 1970 called
' Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head'
Perhaps Paul Kelly could sing the tune with the following words
"The Ball drops Falling Before Ahmed."

Can’t believe CA aren’t letting Smith play for the sixers. If this is a TV competition designed to increase revenue and interest in cricket, the best players should be playing if available.

Common sense executive decrees should be envied here.

If it’s an integrity betting issue, stiff shit fans are more important that betting sponsors, IMO.

Isn't it because he wasn't on any franchise playing squads for the last 4yrs?

Fair enough I think regardless who he is.

Personally I would have loved to see Smith play as a casual t20 fan but you definitely can understand the league saying no. Every other team would have been up in arms had he been allowed to play given he wasn't registered for them.
