No Chance

[ACT Crusader]

5 over game - rain, hail or storm. Spinners only and no D/L, whoever scores the most runs, wins.

[Duluth]

Aus won the toss and have put us in

Australia: David Warner, Aaron Finch (capt), Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Tim David, Matthew Wade (wk), Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood

New Zealand: Finn Allen, Devon Conway (wk), Kane Williamson (capt), Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Jimmy Neesham, Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee, Lockie Ferguson, Trent Boult

Starting on time

[nzzp]

Finn Allen takes Starc fro the most runs conceded off the first over by an Aussie bowler. 14.

I must be over rugby because as soon as this started I switched over.

Pleased I did from the first over.

Liking Fanalllan

[Damo]

Zappa should have caught that.

Really piling on some early runs. Hope it continues, but even if he goes out now it's a great start from Finn Allan.

[Crucial]

It may not last but I’m enjoying this so far. 46-0 after 3

[Donsteppa]

Bugger. Now Kane will block a few overs

[Damo]

Good innings. I will take that.

Up to these two to keep it going at a more reasonable clip.

platform's set nicely for us to canter to a sub-par score

It's a fucking joke

[Damo]

Nice shot from KW but 4 dots and a boundary is not really enough. Needs to be working singles rather than dots.

[Damo]

Amazing eye hand by Conway.

His batting intent seems to have been stored in his now bung elbow...

[booboo]

Can't nurdle it around too much.

Back to 11/over.

Nice Dev

[Damo]

We need to stop meandering here. An easy 180 is not likely to be enough.
