Cricket: Domestic Chat Thread

[Creag]

Launch note to the interested:

I cannot see if there are any threads created or dedicated for local domestic cricket discussion or banter, especially since the cricket sub-forum is in sy m*** in

If there is enough banter, chat, dialogue, gossip, tête-à-tête, heart-to-heart, head-to-head, etc., perhaps we can ask a "Super Mod" to sticky this.

So with your kind permission and without further delay...

Cobras win by 8 wickets. They did it all in the first 2 innings. Titans threw it away with 122/10 in the first innings. Credit to the Cobras bowlers. Good team performance.

Ugh Dolphins. From 89/2 to 123 all out, chasing a modest 216.

How do you guys manage to follow this stuff when it's never on TV? I would love to have it on in the background but, well, Supersport decided it's not important enough.

Unfortunately, I have a hard time following because I've never been a huge fan of perusing the scorecard afterwards without watching.

I just periodically check the scores on the Supersport app.

That is some collapse. Seems to be normal for our franchises

ESPNcricinfo or CricBuzz. At least, I think CricBuzz do also have live updates on their site. Just click the link and minimise the page. I check in periodically to see what is happening. Useful to see who are upcoming and possible candidates for Proteas.
