Like a West Coast Eagles home game when they are getting done.

Rashid Khan took a double hat-trick in the second T20 Afghanistan Vs. Ireland last night.

The next ball he bowled a wide and so missed the opportunity of 5 wickets in 5 balls. What a choker!

Down in Melbourne for a couple of days, and with an afternoon to kill. Was having a coffee with old workmates down at the Junction and they said the game was on here. Iā€™d assumed the G.

Vics got set 300 to win, and already 2 down with Dean out for 0 and Pucovski lbw for 11. Very loud second noise but the umpire must have decided it wasnā€™t the batā€¦or is ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  deaf. Wonder if it was the same umpire who didnā€™t pick up on a massive edge from Neser when he was 30 odd in the first innings.

Harris on about 20 and Maddinson 1.

And probably the same ump who didnā€™t give Matt Short out LBW yesterday in the single most plumb LBW Iā€™ve seen not given at professional level.

Theyā€™re diabolically bad. Woeful. Utterly utterly hopeless.

I thought crap umpiring was confined to local cricket. The Short not out lbw was disgraceful. Was hitting middle and off 3 parts of the way up.

Womenā€™s cricket ump are atrocious

Unfortunately not. The difference being these ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  are actually doing it professionally for a living and preside over the career fortunes of our brightest young talents.

Draw looking likely?

Positives: Harris 90 odd in the 1st dig and 60* 2nd.
Burns and Labuschagne runs in both innings.

Patterson 130

All the Test bats doing well.

Bancroft has 190 of 370 WA runs so far, theyā€™re 5/90 and looking like losing outright to NSW who had a debutant wak the WA bowlers to all corners.

4/154 in the first over after tea. Harris 94

SA have collapsed to Bird and Rogers and are 9 down, 100 odd in front

wow

Harry Nilsson thought 1 was the loneliest number. Harry Nielsen thinks 0 is lonelier, but heā€™s got some mates. Canā€™t do it Without You, he says.

been out in the sun too long?

Beautiful Day! U2?

Harris tom mixes over long on to bring up the ton.

136 runs required from 31 overs. Easily do-able if they can keep wickets in hand. Looks like Short is there to hold up the end just in case Harris gets out
