Very impressed with Cummins today. He bowled good line & length & with reasonable pace until late in the day. Without doubt he has a big future if handled well however it was obvious that NSW were a bowler short so i don't think bowling an inexperienced 17 y.o. to a near standstill will do much for his future. 41 overs as well as Copelands 50 overs can't be doing too much for their health & temperament.

Perth Scorchers and Adelaide Strikers are apparently official for the 20/20 crap next season

by PeterCS Sun 20 Mar 2011, 13:27

Perth Scorchers???????

Is he a Saffie import?

by PeterCS Sun 20 Mar 2011, 13:27

What about Adelaide Shitepedlars?

That nickname is saved for the board of Cricket Australia.

Matty Johnston and David Bandy last night tied for the Olly Cooley Medal (F&B in WACA 1st Grade) just a week after they bost lost their Warriors contracts

Both were second time winners

and they play against each other in the Grand Final this weekend

Craig Simmonds finished third by 1 vote ...he was leading by 2 going into the last game and Jonno and Coot both got threes

Brad Hogg came in at 5/100 on the weekend and made 144 for Willeton to get them into the GF

embee, heard anything about Shaun Marsh moving to Brisbane? At least for the t20 shite? On wikipedia's BBL page (link) it says:

The Brisbane team will be known as the Brisbane Heat and play in mainly yellow, redy orange and maroon. Their home ground will be The Gabba. Their captain will be Shaun Marsh.

which I found interesting because I thought the allocation of players hadn't been done yet.

by embee Tue 22 Mar 2011, 01:35

Have heard nothing of that ...I dont even know if the private parties have purchased their share of the franchises yet

thus ends another great season of Oz domestic cricket....the champs in the 3 forms of the game would each give their Oz team counterparts a trouncing

by Zat Tue 22 Mar 2011, 08:35

That's a bit rich, h. South Australia would find a way to lose.

Damn ...Lost a $5 bet with TLA ...I was sure h would counter with the Sozzies beat the Dubber A team in the Big Wank so would have no trouble with the Dubber C team that plays with Australia on their uniforms ...

Straight off the Bushrangers facebook page:

Just announced: new Melbourne Big Bash League teams are the Melbourne Stars and the Melbourne Renegades. The Melbourne Stars will wear green and play at the MCG, the Melbourne Renegades will wear red and play at Etihad.

by Big Dog Wed 23 Mar 2011, 07:37

Melbourne Renegades

Are they owned by the Melbourne Rebels?

by horace Wed 23 Mar 2011, 07:38

yukko...my loathing of eddiehead stadium encourages me to barrack for the Stars....so much for inter city rivalry

Brisbane Heat
Adelaide Strikers
Perth Scorchers
Melbourne Renegades (Etihad Stadium)
Melbourne Stars (MCG)
Sydney Sixers (SCG)

Shippy is coaching the Stars, and Simon Helmot (Vic asst coach) is coaching the Renegades

by Zat Wed 23 Mar 2011, 09:28

There's 8 (well, 7 plus one TBC) reasons to hope the whole thing collapses up its own orifice.

by Big Dog Wed 23 Mar 2011, 20:01

Hobart Hurricanes has been confirmed in todays paper. Bound to cause some confusion as there was a SEABL womens basketball team also called the Hobart Hurricanes.
At least they did'nt go for Hobart Pride...that would have been really gay.

by Zat Wed 23 Mar 2011, 21:44

I stand corrected then BD, there's 8 confirmed reasons.
