Smith picked a good time to produce that knock just in time for the T20I selection. Easily his best T20 knock, came out of the blue really as he has been sub par in the matches so far.

Similar last night with Callum Ferguson and Cameron White. Those 2 badly needed some runs and they both got to spend a bit of time out there. 28 off 30 isn't awesome, but it might help White keep his captaincy for the short term.

well im 25th in the fox sports fantasy team so Im gambling on White making a big score tomorrow haha. Also what happens if the game in perth is washed out, do we just go straight to the final?

Overall?

yeah, im a bit surprised actually. no.1 in wa. i was just trying to beat my friends haha.

Congrats it was all about getting that early jump and then punting on the unknown stars. I got Luke Wright when he made his 100 but I was way too far behind. Plus captaincy picks became a problem. I was going nicely in the CA big bash, was inside the top 200 but forgot to change my team last week and fell to 400.

Nice work, I actually had a pretty bad start but had Coyte, Shah and Birt from the beginning so I got the jump on them, i dont really know how ive moved up so much, the best XI has been pretty obvious since early on, I changed gayle from captain to hussey just before his first failure after his run, then dropped gayle before last round, good move that he got a duck. But i need to catch up 800 points to get the $5k so its not gonna be easy, the top 5 batsman are obvious, so if i go with them im not going to gain any points, so gambling on a few outsiders to do well. Lumb crossed my mind but he's crap haha. the allrounders a re a bit more of a lucky dip tho.

Yeah, just saw Mitch Marsh and Hoggy on the news.

Sold out in less than an hour!

Give it to me or else i'll kill you.

Could be Perths last chance to see Warney live!

 

[Sedition]

Tipping Melbourne to roll up the Scorchers and smoke them in tonight's semi, simply because they look better on paper and the Sixers demoralised Perth the other night with a crushing victory.

 

[Hooper]

Scorchers torching the Stars into a milky display.

 

[aussie1st]

Congrats Perth well deserved CL spot and if they can keep their IPL players they will be a team to watch. Would be looking at a lineup like:
Shaun Marsh
Gibbs
North
Hussey
Mitch Marsh
Ronchi
NCN
Johnson (Don't know if he's allowed or not).
Rimmington
Hogg
Edmondson/Beer

All hail Cameron White. Ridiculous player.
