Sheffield shield 2012/13 thread

He wouldn't look out of place in a baggy green...

WA succesfully flipped the script on Queensland winning comfortably to the tune of 99 runs.

Coulter-Nile was impressive with the ball taking 9 wickets in total including a match winning 6/84 in the second innings. WA's middle order of Rogers, Marsh & Voges set up the win quite nicely.

Opening batsmen Greg Moller made the most of his opportunity scoring his maiden Shield century. James Hopes was also very handy with bat and bowl but overall it was a disappointing performance from the Bulls.

Would've been nice to have Cutting playing instead of being waterboy for Australia.

Welcome to NSW world

Anyway, 5/389 at tea, Maddinson 118*, Copeland 53*

 

[Horrie Is God]

That Hobart deck must be flat..

Krezja & Copeland getting big runs..

 

[MSIH]

Bit rough on Maddinson. The kid's got talent, he's just having a poor run atm.

He'll fire one of these days, hopefully soon.

He's had a poor run for 18 months though and hasnt done much in grade. A talent, yeah, but shouldnt be playing shield cricket at present.

Wish I punted as well as that.

Obviously the deck's a bit flat, but you still need to do it. Hopefully he can kick on from here. Immensely talented.

 

[Dutchy]

Maddinson 144*
Copeland 100*

Top scores for both.

 

[Dutchy]

Maddinson out for 154. NSW leading by 50 odd

 

[aussies1st]

About time Maddinson did something. Great stuff Copeland.

as well as Punter

Has the Blundstone Arena curator gone on strike so they had to get the local council stop/go crew to prepare the wicket (Whatever the Tasmanian equvilant of the RMS)

 

[TheParraboy]

we only got 2 points from our last sheild game

we need better decks to force results

3 games to go, we pretty much need to win 2 of them well and get max points to have a chance

We were cruising towards victory last game and then last day washed out killed us.

I only found this out recently, but shield cricket is actually streamed on video. Don't know if anyone else has mentioned it in this thread.. (with commentary)

[Earl]

foxsports streas games too. not sure about commentary though. i watch them at work with the volume muted

 

[Earl]

NSW currently 8/125 in their Sheild game against SA.

Chadd Sayers whos name is already been thrown around in the Media as a possible Ashes bolter has 5/54 off 20 overs. Leading sheild wicket taker this season too

 

[MSIH]

9 down now. 6 of them have been bowled, which is absolutely inexcusable at Shield level, especially so at the Adelaide Oval.

 

[MSIH]

Haha, bowled out for 157 at the Adelaide Oval. Just when I thought NSW couldn't plunge any lower.

 

[Timbo]

What's with the NSW side? Cricinfo has 13 players listed.
