December 26, 201510 yr South Africa have won the toss and elected to bowl. So England get to have a go with the bat early doors. Come on England.
December 26, 201510 yr Scorchers just about wrapping the game up here against the heat. Pretty mediocre game really. I prefer the close games obviously.
December 27, 201510 yr This Australia v West Indies test series is a total farce. One has to wonder about WI,the talent playing in the big bash would easily put up a better effort.

December 27, 201510 yr Take nothing away from Australia but this is far from competitive test cricket. Hopefully the second day in Durban South Africa will be more interesting.
December 29, 201510 yr So declare by lunch with a lead of 340+ and a day and a half to bowl them out? Sent from my GT-I9000 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app
December 31, 201510 yr 46,000 people happy leaving Adelaide oval tonight after Travis Head's knock. Superb.
December 31, 201510 yr 46,000 people happy leaving Adelaide oval tonight after Travis Head's knock. Superb. Dropped early but scoring 27 off the 17th over and 18 off the first 3 balls off the final over to win the game and score a century was as you put it superb.

He's a NSW player I'm guessing?

Smart man
December 31, 201510 yr Would like him in WA but he's the South Australian captain for shield and matador cup. Sixers are having a bad run with injuries. You better get on Sydney Thunder Bookman,there on top and looking the goods early.

December 31, 201510 yr The last 2 Big Bash games have been absolute belters.Just looked on cricinfo and Head went from 45 to 100 off of14 balls. Edit: Head is one of the players I mentioned in an earlier post that Dean Jones reckons will eventually play for Australia.

Max 4 foreign players per team per game. Speaking of salaries for players. I thought the Big Bash didn't have a high cap. I was surprised to learn that some of the imports are on over $300 000. Michael Carberry for the Scorchers, who can't get a game at the minute is on $300 000 plus. Great money for 5 weeks work.

January 2, 201610 yr Perth Scorchers in good form. My mum turned 71 today and was at the the game,i'm sure she went home happy. Although didn't see her take a crowd catch which would have topped it off. Carberry is laughing all the way to the bank.
