Butters has an amazing Shield Final record. He always fronts up and performs well in the big one.

Just as well our NSP are so inept or they could have picked Butters over Smith. Very Happy

Butters on 82. Just hope Gulbis can support long enough to bring his ton up.

Fark...i woofed him. Butters out.

Tas 9/411

Hopes is given a charity LBW to take the last wicket. (would have missed leg stump by a mile).
Tas all out 419

No, I meant their performance is not up to scratch for a Shifinal.

So the groundstaff allow the pitch to get absolutely saturated. Was this deliberate or just incompetence?

It pissed down and the high winds made it hard for ground staff to get the covers down quickly. But that's pretty funny. Very Happy

21st Over
Following the latest inspection, play will resume at 2:25 which means that 2 hours have been lost to the weather at the moment, however the umpires can make up an hour today and the other hour tomorrow

FFS Joe Burns given out caught behind but the ball clearly bounced in front of the keeper's gloves.
Sad

Might cost Burns an Ashes spot as well.

So no 3rd umpire for the Final?

by JGK Sun 24 Mar 2013, 05:00

Wrong thread...

i was there at the time. The fault was with the umpires. Every local knew what was coming but the umps stayed on until it was too late. Rain only lasted ten minutes but was torrential. Ground staff had no chance.

Looked a regulation catch to me & no doubts from the Foxy commentators.

Fork absolutely robbed. Hartley plumb LBW not given.
