Nice to have some BBL to watch on New Year's Eve. Adelaide Strikers VS Sydney Thunder

 

[Agent_Smith]

Good knock from Ingram. Some massive sixes!

Day 1: Stumps

IND 303/4

Another 144 overs (and counting) bowled by Australia for 6 wickets. Ouch.

Without sledging and/or cheating they ineffective. Sledging is so much a part of their DNA and game plan. With all the controversy surrounding sandgate and the Warner/de kock sledging row, these guys are on a tight leash now.

Sledging is great... Makes the game exciting, obviously within the boundaries of good sportsmanship.

 

[Neoprod]

605/6 after 165 overs in the Sydney sun. No signs of a declaration yet.

Look at the strike rate for the current batsman.
Rishabh Pant 157 @ 83.96
Ravindra Jadeja 81 @ 71.68

IND 622/7 decl (167.2 Ovs)
CRR: 3.72

Pity Pant couldn’t hold onto that one. Potential snore fest coming up but still means India beat Aus, so I’m a happy man

 

[Neoprod]

Apart from the new ground at Perth, these pitches have been as flat as anything. I reckon the Aussies have so little confidence in their batting, they screwed over their bowlers with dead pirches. That's some mileage the bowlers have put up this series.

Labuschagne??

 

[Neoprod]

^, family emigrated when he was 10.

They say his name the non-Afrikaans way...Lar-boo-shayn

Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has slammed the reaction Virat Kohli got from the Sydney crowd as "disgraceful". Kohli walked out to a mix of cheers and loud boos from the SCG crowd on Thursday. He was subject of "Kohli is a w***er" chants in Melbourne, and was booed in Perth.

"If it was booing then it's absolutely disgraceful," Ponting said on Seven. "I said that in the Perth Test as well. Show some respect."

And they wonder why their cricket is in tatters.

Thisara Perrera (140 off 74 balls, 13 6's, 8 4's) almost pulled off something amazing. Took Sri Lanka from 128/7 to 298 all out chasing 320.

Enjoyed that a lot.

Saw the tail end of his knock. It was pure hitting. Southee kept feeding him full tosses and he kept despatching them over mid wicket.
