[Big Pete]

Marsh (79) and North (35) both out.

WA 4/235

Cutting started to find some rhythm by the end of his spell. Will be better for the run. Looked very rusty early on and bowled way too straight. WA in a prime position for an outright win if they are good enough IMO. Bulls will need to bat well second time around and roll them tomorrow morning if they want any points out of the match.

Cutting cleaning house today, took a bit of stick for his wickets.

Lalor and Coyte the wickets for NSW, Lalor again impressing with the old ball. SOK has been solid, looks like he is getting a bit of turn.

 

[beads6]

Cutting has bowled pretty erratically but now has 5 wickets which is a good result for him coming back from injury.

 

[Twizzle]

Tas 2/189 in reply to NSW 7dec/341

Pretty ordinary Blues pace attack, Copeland, Laylor, Coyte and Abbott

 

[beads6]

Cowan still in making runs which is a good thing. Blues have been hammered by injuries to their quicks

 

[Big Pete]

Warriors well on top as the rain has appeared to end day 3.

After amassing a lead of 108 runs they have the Bulls at 4/111 with Burns (32*) & Hartley (1*) occupying the crease. Mitch Marsh was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 2/14.

It was good to see Cutting end with a 5 for. Far from his best performance but it just shows you what he's capable of when he switches 'on'.

 

[aussies1st]

This attack should have been good enough, Copeland has been the problem, seems to have completely lost his wicket taking ability.

Lynn and Khawaja out early, not great for either.

 

[beads6]

Neser looks to have strained his ankle so he might not bat until last. Not sure how bad it is. Bulls probably needed this wake up call. They were horrible with the bat in the first innings.

 

[Horrie Is God]

Hughes fails again..

36 off 53..

Not one pull shot played..

Now Rohrer gawne..

NSW 4/75..

Lead by 71..

 

[aussies1st]

Hopefully we can survive till lunch that should give us enough run.

 

[Tweed Titan]

The Blues need a shake-up. There is rot in this current setup, and it seems to start at the top IMO.

 

[Earl]

To many individuals imo

 

[aussies1st]

Dam the youngsters still not delivering, Burns out cheaply. And no 50 for Nevill.

Faulkner has 4 now and Bird continues to impress just missed out on a hattrick.

 

[beads6]

Bulls looking likely to get the reality check they needed. WA have been good and have a pretty decent side.

 

[beads6]

Bulls all out for 175, WA need 68 to win outright.

 

[Red Bear]

NSW 9/150, lead by 146, Katich not batting it seems

 

[beads6]

WA are 3/23 at Lunch. McDermott with all 3 wickets. Marsh is still in.

 

[beads6]

WA are 5/42. McDermott has all the wickets

 

[beads6]

6/43 McDermott has all 6
