Great to see Milne still playing, (employed). Got a soft spot for those tearaway quicks that keep battling injuries. So much rehab for a body movement that's all kinds of damaging
That kid was exciting and bloody useful when he was fit.

Still a bloody effective player

Good win for Hobart. Their bowling attack looks very handy
-
@mariner4life that Meredith bloke slinging them down at 150 was a double-edged sword (Vincent leading edge into fine leg) but jeez you'd be putting a slip in every time.
I missed the end as I'm old and had too many beers at a work function yesterday, leaving just at the point Pink Sydney went from "cruising home" to "shit the bed"

Coulter-Nile 4-10 off his 4. And this game is pretty one sided
-
Sixers belt the rebels in the most one sided affair ypu are ever likely to see
Hurricanes won again as well.
-
oh the Heat, a choke job of epic epic proportions
Post a decent total? check
Get the chasing side 3 down almost instantly? check
Keep the run rate down so the end is tough? checkThe Thunder needed 24 off the last 2 overs. Not impossible, but still pretty hard to do
They got home with 7 balls to spare
the 19th over was 6 (NB) . . 6 6 6

Game was lost (somewhat) due to terrible decisions in the middle of the game.
Steketee batting the last 3 balls of the innings should never have happened with Pierson at the other end. No attempt from Pierson to run the bye.
Kuhnneman bowling the second over against two excellent players of spin should never have happened when Wildermuth had just taken 2 for 1 and they had another excellent seam bowler in Steketee or even Laughlin.
Yeah they (or more accurately Laughlin) choked, but they gave plenty away before that point that would have made an enormous difference in the latter stages of the game. And it was nothing to do with talent - purely decision-making.

Did you see that the run out in the Hurricanes game made the US Sportscenter Top 10 plays of the day - made number 4.

Colin Munro is going ok. Currently 40 off 26
then got out in a bad way at a bad time
didn't matter as the game got rained out

A routine hammering of the Heat got very interesting last night
chasing about 150 to win, the Heat were 68/8 after 13 and the game was done
they lost by 2 runs.
In the end being 9 down killed them, because the one set batsman couldn't take singles, and couldn't take huge risks. Good finish though. The Adelaide bowler who got the last over bowled a shit delivery first, and then 4 straight rippers in the perfect spot.
