@ARHS Is there any chance New Zealand will get a team in the Big bash in the future?
Not atm there is talk here in the Cricket circles of a Northern QLd based team.
Qld Bulls masters are heavily involved in the McKay and Townsville areas and are pushing for one. -
@Chris base it in Cairns we have the best ground

Yeah real possibility although I have heard Townsville's Riverway park mentioned good lighting at that ground.
Townsville was mentioned as being more central to the NQ cricket area.
McKay Harrup Park is used a lot for under age Country rep stuff but is a bit small I think it only holds about 7000.

I watched that disaster finally and wtf was with the feet of the Thunder players? It was like they were all glued to the pitch. Every wicket was from a batsman planted like a fucking tree with very deep roots.
Trevor Bayliss batting approach.Strong base, hit through the ball idea use all the power from the hips he has used that for a while.
Baseball style hitting its used a bit over here but it was not executed very well and you can only do it to length balls or back of the length stuff as soon as it is forward of a length you can not get enough leverage to hit it far. -

Have they not seen the % rate of baseball players actually connecting properly? And that’s with the knowledge that the ball has to go into an area.

It works very well when executed correctly,Glen Maxwell and Glen Phillips are great exponents of it,every top 20/20 player hits big that way and have used it for a few years now.Brendan McCullum used it and I see England are now batting that way it at test level.
But you have to pick the right ball like any shot.
Thats why they are hitting further you generate more power and hit further and in more area's.All about the power base no base you can't hit anything very far.
It has revoultionised the 20/20 game,
when you have hit a ball using this technique you really understand the concept and the improvement in your range hitting. -

Risk and reward I suppose.

Sure but by using the hitting technique and increasing distance by up to 20 metres the miss hit now can go for 6 instead of being caught near the boundary.And you can reach the bigger boundaries easier.
You can hit with more power square and straight which you could not reach the boundary before.
You can also hit one of the most difficult shots 6 over cover much easier.
As you say less Risk for more reward. -

@Rapido said in Big Bash 22/23:
Cant get caught if you use good footwork and get your foot to the pitch of the ball. You'll only score about 70 off your 20 overs, though. But at least you'll have another 8 wickers in hand for the afternoon session.
That’s why you pick your balls to do it. Planting and swinging at everything never lasts long.

Shot selection is the key,As we are not talking about using this technique every ball that is like saying you are cover driving every ball.It is your 6 hitting option.
