Bulls v. Redbacks - Big Bash at the Gabba

[Donny]

Graham Manou won the toss and elected to bat. Daniel Harris scored a quick 40 to help get the Redbacks off to a good start. SA: 2/85 after 11 overs. Michael Klinger 41*.

[Donny]

Klinger (42) out to a sensational catch by Townsend at long on. 3/95 after 12 overs.

[Donny]

5 wickets in 5 overs. 5/114 after 15 overs. Good to see Craig McDermott's son, 17 y.o. Alistair, bowling in his second match for Queensland. Very proud mum & dad watching on.

[Donny]

Sohail Tanvir in for the Redbacks. 17 overs gone. 5/133. Manou 24* Tanvir 8*

[Chandan]

Ok Donny. How are the Pak trio of Tanvir, Gul and Yunis Khan doing in Australian domestic cricket? Why did the counties approach them to play for them?

[Donny]

Umar Gul has bowled very well. Tanvir not so well. Tanvir replaced Younis Khan in the SA team for this T20 series. YK has had a couple of good knocks after a scratchy start. All 3 seem to love playing out here and the fans have taken them to heart. Can't help you with why Gul was signed but South Australia has lost Lehmann, Blewett, Elliott and Gillespie over the last few seasons and, certainly in YK's case, wanted an experienced cricketer.

[Donny]

The Redbacks finished on 7/163. Tanvir was 30 n.o.

[Donny]

Q'land 1/32 after 4 overs

Thanks for the info. Even they could not have approached few English players too since they too are having an off-season during Australia's cricket-season?

[Donny]

2/57 after 8 overs.

A Pommy playing in an Aussie state team ? I don't think so. Would be akin to an Indian playing in Pakistan's domestic games. :regular_smile:

[Donny]

2/101 after 12 overs. Carseldine 36* Reardon 31*

[Donny]

Reardon out for 46 from 23 balls. 3/128. Carseldine 47* Run-a-ball to win. 4 overs left.

[Donny]

Bulls need 9 from 21 balls. Cars 63* from 42 balls.

[Donny]

Tanvir to bowl with Q'land needing 7 from 18 balls.

[Donny]

Single, single, wide, dot, single, single and a two. Carseldine 67* as the home team wins with 12 balls to spare.

[SachDan]

Unbelievable hitting from Reardon. was dealing only in 6s...five of them!

[Lord]

cant belive we have seperate threads for every DOMESTIC t20 competition in australia.wen was the last time it happened for sheffield shield games?

[Donny]

Apologies. I won't bother in future. Incidentally, I didn't initiate it. I saw a topic on a Big Bash match, started by Desi, so I thought it was ok. Also, there is only one Australian T20 domestic series. It's played between Dec. 26 and Jan. 24.
