This will improve the professionalism of women's cricket and help close the gap that the Aussies have over everyone else.

Aussie girls should make a pact...

Be lazy at training, eat a ton of cheese parathas, experiment with new shots on game day

Mumbai (no aussies) detroyed Giants with 4 aussies

Mumbai 5/207

The Gujarat Giants (few aussies here, Ash Gardener, Sutherland, Beth Mooney, Wareham)

Are the first team that cannot make the playoffs

They have won 2 from 8, with one game left

Mumbai and Delhi (Go Megz) guaranteed to make top 3

Up Warriorz look better odds than Bangalore to make top 3

NRL Physio thinks Kane Williamson has done his ACL.

It will be a miracle if he hasn't.

Will be a shattering to have a truly great batsman who will miss 9-12 months in his 12-18 months of peak performance.

Turns 33 this year.

Hopefully he is back when Australia tour NZ next year.

[Haffa]

Decent knocks from Faf and Kohli yesterday. Shame about Greens failure.

 

[Bazal]

Man India keep churning them out, this Sai Sudharsan kid looks better than any young Aussie bat.

Words are unable to express how much I f**ken hate Haydos also. If my missus blew me as well as he blows India in general I would not currently be a father.

 

[Bazal]

I DO NOT EVEN CARE I f**king love Rashid Khan. Hat trick hero, what an ambiguously aged man!

 

[Bazal]

Oh my f**king god. This nondescript Indian net bowler might actually die. Defending 29 in the last and went for 5 sixes on the trot.

28 needed from last 5 balls

Rinku Singh goes 6, 6, 6, 6, 6 off last five balls to script miracle win for Knight Riders

The last over started with 29 needed. Then it was 28 from five balls. Then followed carnage, and an unlikely Knight Riders win

Some of the great death bowling you will ever see, 120kms/hr thunderbolts, tried to fool the batsman with a combination of half trackers and full tosses but the batsman was far too good.

Bowler was last seen leaving the ground with a wheelbarrow full of
