*Official* Big Bash League 2019/20

[Burgey]

It's December and they're playing a day game in Alice Springs. What manner of evil is this?

 

[Burgey]

Not that it's affected recently recalled Parramatta and Australia all rounder Sean Dermo Sabba Abbott.

Made of sterner stuff than most.

 

[Starfighter]

Hawk? It's a kite you philistines.

 

[NUFAN]

This is in no way intended as an insult, but that first innings felt very WBBL like.

 

[GotSpin]

Why is this being played...?

 

[GotSpin]

Can no one play spin?

 

[Starfighter]

Quality innings from Abbott.

 

[NUFAN]

This has been one of the best all time T20 overs.

 

[Starfighter]

Pope was definitely worth giving just the one over too.

 

[NUFAN]

Why is this being played...?

Just a case of shortening the tournament. Double headers today and both Saturday and Sunday.

On a Friday arvo in Alice, during school holidays I can sort of understand why.

"So many havocs"--commentator

?

 

[NotMcKenzie]

Hobart can't rest too easily here: they'll probably have to bowl Rose again.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

119.4 km/h short ball from Qais there. Followed by a more sedate 85.2 and 84.1.

 

[NUFAN]

Theyve really written of the 6ers early here. 28 off 12 isnt impossible. Maybe 5 boundaries required.

Edit- okay that changes things haha

 

[NotMcKenzie]

Good win by Hobart there

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Was good to see D'a'r'c'y S'h'o'r't make runs, the Northern Territory have produced a fair few handy cricketers of recent times, good to see one of them doing the job on home soil.

 

[duffer]

Is this thing still going?

Heh

 

[Starfighter]

It's the Nerang River, not the Narang River.

Idiots.

 

[Starfighter]

Big shot by Maddog. Big whiff the next ball too.

 

[Starfighter]

Renshaw bowling paying off. Sort of thing that makes you question if this counts as cricket.
