Sixes win easy thanks to Smith and Curran but what reward they must fly all day tomorrow to play Scorchers in Perth on Tuesday
Hope they make to Perth in time .Make the finals finish 2nd but Sam Curran flys to Sri Lanka tomorrow to play for England .
Starc 4 overs 4- 35 got the bowling figures
Heat got 9-171 but were heading for about 140 until Michael Neser came in and completely changed the momentum with 35 off 14 balls
Seems our test stars shining in BBL
Sixes need 172 ? Who knows ? If Smith comes off it should be easy but get him...
Class stands out in the Sydney BBL derby
Warner a fantastic 110 not out in Thunder 189 total but he gets more than matched by Smith 100 off 41 balls
2 of my favourite cricketers shine way above the rest
Sixes win because Smith got more support than Davvy did
Sixes will finish 2nd (...
How good is David Warner
Vs Sydney 6 's . 110 not out in Thunder total 6-189
Carried the bat and its not his first ton this BBL season
Leading BBL run getter this season
Not bad for 39 year old
No more comments about who is better at test cricket .I think we are you don't
Just your comment about England lost because of Bazball ?
If so how come Australia scored at a higher run rate ?
I do agree we won because England are a weak over rated team .
Following the 2021/ 2022 tour which...
Yep exactly what I said
So your view is Australia just scraped across the line by being slightly less poor the English .Sorry but 4-1 was a very easy win .
Full strength India were here 12 months ago and lost 3-1
Pommy supporters just can't bring themselves to say Well Done Aussies you totally...
Reading all the posts series comments like
Series dissapointing
England might have won if only this or that had happened
Australia only won because England were terrible
Both teams sub standard etc etc etc etc
Makes me spot a few hints of sour grapes and makes me wonder how many
"Aussie...
Agree with most of your rankings
Think Marnus a couple of 50 's and a 48 plus some outstanding catches has me moving him up a level
Doggett got all his wickets with half trackers but probably told to bowl them
But not one conventional wicket bowled LBW caught knicking off etc
Thought he had...
I admire their resilience but I'm glad we don't have anything like the barmy army just plenty of dress up groups just having fun
I'm just not a fan of excessive flag waving nationalism incl here or anywhere
But that's just me .
I lived for a while in the USA many years ago and most houses had...
I thought a bit more than a good effort with most of our regular attack out for most of the series
Won 1 8 wickets Won 2 8 wickets Won 3 82 runs Won 5 5 wickets
Lost 4 4 wickets on a highly unsatisfactory pitch .
If we were below standard ? What does that say about the English ?
In the end a comfortable 5 wicket win
Win series 4 -1 ( even 2-2 ) would have retained the Ashes
Cam Green finally stood up in the end
England only win was on a terrible unsatisfactory MCG pitch .
Point is England cant expect to win when we got 567 in the 1st innings
No Hazelwood ,Cummins 1...
Head was just edging Starc for man of the series but Starc getting the last 2 today to go to 31 wickets and Head getting out today to a really reckless shot has me now having Starc edging Head for man of the series
Carse almost assaulting the on field umpire weatherald didn't hit it a flattish murmur could be anything
They were also upset when Head edged a full ball to the boundary and ball didn't even touch the pads yet they feel aggrieved then
They are over the top
