Big Bash 2020/2021 (Mens and Womens)

[_snafu_]

Bring back Holt

Billings has been a huge disappointment batting at 4 or 5

I think the Sixers should loan Sandhu to the Thunder.

Very very quick, decent year, as good as any of the better quicks in other sides.

They rested him last game

Why is the average IQ of a Victorian comparable to a rock?

Dumb scheduling all round from CA. The last 3 games of the BBL are a triple-header on the same day!

Also, having matches in the Gold Coast starting at 8:20pm QLD time...I mean, seriously, who is responsible for designing the draw? The 8:20pm match on the Gold Coast where the Sixers ran down 193 with 1 wicket left finished at nearly 1am in Sydney (midnight in QLD)!

I cannot fathom why they scheduled the Perth game before the game on the Goldie. With the time differences, and not to mention the 40 degree heat in Perth today, don't you have the QLD match commence at 6:00pm AEDT and then the Perth game after 9PM AEDT time? Am I missing something?

It is Cricket Australia in charge....why are you shocked?

Levers on show from The Rig

 

[jargan83]

That was a great catch - shame they took 7 hours to actually make a decision

 

[jargan83]

No show for the Big Show tonight

 

[Eelectrica]

Gotta give credit where it's due. This is actually some pretty damn good fielding from the Heat of all teams. Some of this catching is pretty good.

Not convinced the Heat would have scored 260 from their 20, but still.

You know it’s going bad when Larkin top scores in a t20 for you!

Why wasn’t Maxwell or Pooran opening...

I 100% agree with you.

If two matches had to be scheduled in those states (QLD and WA) in those timeslots (6:10pm and 9:20pm AEDST), the matches should've been switched to capitalize on the time zone difference.

So yes, it would've made more sense to have the QLD match at 6:10pm (5:10pm QLD) followed by the Perth match at 9:20pm (6:20pm WA).

Having the Perth match played during the heat of nearly 40 degrees in front of a few hundred people in a 60,000 seat stadium (such as the lack of the crowd that you could hear the amplified echo of the ball hitting the bat, and fans talking) and having the Gold Coast match finishing well past kids' bedtime (at nearly quarter to midnight) is a joke.

Whoever scheduled the BBL draw should be sacked.
