      EXACTLY what I was thinking.

      Might pour a shot over some ice (for me) not him

        We will be lucky to be still batting by the 40th, what a collapse, if that's what it's called

              I'm glad someone waded in. Not tooo shabby total, a bit better than a Big Bash score... just.

                Big Bash has ruined the game. Losing interest in ODIs because they have the same mentality.

                  I tend to agree Rocky, don't mind the concept, hate the Munster music, balls of flame and amateur dancers tripping over their own feet, trying to imitate the Yanks razzle dazzle bullsh*t and doing a poor job of it, surely not difficult to come up with an original Aussieconcept for an Aussie game, or perhaps it is.

                  Even the team names are rubbish, Hurricanes, Renegades, Strikers, 6ers, Americanised crap, why not some names of Australian origin, perhaps Roo's, Boozers, Wombats, Bogans etc

                  I know! the games origins are Anglo Saxon.

                  Showing our age ain't we?

                    Just some quicky Wiki Quotes:

                    943,000 people nationally in 2014–15 season, including a peak audience of 1.9 million viewers for the final between the Scorchers and Sixers
                    The 2015–16 season attracted an average audience of 1.13 million for each match in Australia an 18% increase on the previous season
                    A cumulative audience of 9.65 million watched the matches in Australia, out of which 39% were females.
                    The BBL Final was watched by an average audience of 1.79 million, which peaked at 2.24 million viewers. This was the first time that the ratings for a BBL match crossed the 2 million mark.
                    ...In 2015–16 season too, the attendance figures continued to be broken across all the venues.
                    The Big Bash League also entered into the top 10 most attended sports leagues in the world with respect to average crowd per match.

                    Maybe it's just a fad.

                      Unfortunately that's the problem, it's all about money.

                      I doubt its a fad, the trend will continue.

                      Big crowds at cricket ain't a modern innovation, pic below SCG circa 1900-1910.

                          Poor battinging by the Aussies never the less.

                          The Pakistanis have some talent on its way but they need to polish them up a bit.

                          Enjoyable match.

                          Pleasure watching with you all.....tomorrow we can do it all over again.

                          Sweeeeeet

                            One of those stoooopid dancers distracted a fielder in the BB the other night, could cause an accident. Should be banned. OH&S issue if I've ever seen one, couldn't give a crap about the dancer but don't want to see a cricketer injured.
